Oh Solome, yes I was really starting to despair about not swelling but I realize not everything works the same for everybody. Thank you for your encouragement, I really do appreciate <3 I'm not being consistent at all, actually I'm kinda putting noogling on hold BUT if you also didn't swell much in the beginning, maybe there's still hope! (thing is, I have to point out that I don't swell AT ALL after pumping). I am adding quite a few more things to my NBE plan these days though so who knows, noogling might work better! Would love to know more about your NBE regime Solome and all the food/supplements you take. You always bring up such interesting things in your posts...do you have a personal thread??

Speaking of NBE plans, I'm also looking forward to reading your complete plans ladies, Zara and Arwen! Like Ella, I'm especially interested in the progesterone part/luteal phase. Mine is kinda all over the place...that's why I'm not updating my personal thread yet. I'd like to take everything that Zara mentioned here!! I'm definitely going to be detoxing my liver and use essential oils (thank you Zara again for the tips <3) that I think are underrated; essential oils are strong/effective. I'm planning on using fennel oil/lavender oil (to increase estrogen and relax me) during my follicular and oregano or thyme (to increase progesterone) during my luteal. I found out this girl does something similar: http://www.howweflourish.com/essential-oil-cycling/ You ladies should definitely check out her post if you're interested in essential oil cycling. As if we need more cycling haha....
