Baby on the Mind

I’ve done a little internet medical research.  I know doctors hate this, but I’ve only been trying for one month.  Any doctor would think I was nuts for getting worked up about a short LP.  Especially if some think that it isn’t a problem.  But, I can’t get over thinking how strange it was that I got my period so early.  

During my internet searching, I learned that some women have tried Vitamin B6 to help lengthen their LP.  That sounds like a simple solution.  I wanted to make sure I wouldn’t have a bad reaction with my seizure medication, so I looked at that as well.  I didn’t really want to get involved with my neurologist because I’ve been harassing him lately about the chances of having a birth defect.  I found out that the seizure medication that I am taking not only interacts with my folic acid (which is why I am taking 4 mg a day instead of just 400 mcg), it also interacts with my B6.  What a coincidence!  

So, off to the store to get some Vitamin B6.

I also read about a progesterone cream, but I think that I’ll just stick with the vitamin for now.  It seems like 10 days is acceptable- just not ideal.  It’ll be interesting to see if that makes a difference in my cycle this month.
