luisa,

yay for soreness! are you fuller too, or just sore? do you get sharp pinching pains like some of the other girls? for me, it's mainly just soreness.

i pump and hold, and i only NG if i can do at least over 40mins. anything less than that, the swelling is negligible. i wonder though, if pump and release would lessen my red ring marks. but logically, to me, pump and hold makes more sense. i've only gotten red dots a couple of times. my main pet peeve with NG is the ring marks. for me, they take DAYS to completely fade off.

one sign that your thyroids are not functioning properly, is if you're tired and lethargic all the time. that was me. then slowly, my hair was falling out more than usual, and started getting acne. i was getting symptoms of PCOS. and i didn't get my period for 6 months. so yeah, it's not subtle. if you're getting your period regularly and feeling well for the most part, then i don't think you have to worry about what your bb temperature is.

i've been feeling a bit fuller but i don't know if it's from the hops or GR, or milk thistle.
