Stupid body!

Figures.. I'd have EWCM ALL day long, but when it's time to BD, nothing! UGH Or well at least nothing abundant as it has been.
I used some preseed so everything was ok.
Whatever EWCM was in there though held on to the sperm, so yay for that.
We're going to just DTD once a day. Let his boys build up for a day. I'm sure we'd be fine if we did it more often but eh, this feels right to me. At least BD until my temps show that I've ovulated.

Still feeling pretty bloated down there. Getting some weird uterus aches. Right O feels ok laying down, but sitting, it aches a little. Nothing too bad or anything. Left O is also aching. Felt it when I was laying down last night in bed. And I know this is weird, but I'm trying to avoid sleeping on my stomach. It's so stupid, but I just have a fear that if I lay on my stomach, it will squish my ovaries, tubes, uterus so an egg won't travel properly lol.

Food news.... I fixed chicken soup last night (minus any noodles).

I was going to use some bone-in chicken breasts, but we didn't have any. Oops.
We did have some bone-in thighs though that I needed to use.
Got my pot. Removed the skin from the chicken, and places the 5 thighs in the pot.
Poured in 1 32oz container of chicken broth and 1 32oz container of beef broth. Would've used just chicken broth but I'm saving the other we have for some of my lunches this week lol.
Chopped up a half an onion. Sliced 5 cloves of garlic and added.
Spices.. added in a packet of gluten free chicken bouillon, sea salt, black pepper.
Brought it to a boil, then reduced heat to simmering. Covered and cooked for 30mins.
After the 30mnins. I took out the chicken and deboned them and placed the meat back in to the pot.
Once that was done, I added in about 2 cups of chopped celery, and about 1-2 cups of whole baby carrots.
Brought to a boil again, and then reduced heat to simmer. Covered and cooked for an hour.

Yum yum! This was really good. A lot better than I thought it would turn out. I'll make this again eventually w/ some bone in breasts.

LOL, I have the same problem sometimes with the EWCM disappearing when it's time for BD. I try to drink some extra water or something prior to BD if I know when we're going to, and it helps sometimes.

Yay for TWW buddies! Maybe we'll get multiples - especially you with your 5 nice follies!! WOOT!
