*sits outside the hut, miserable and sad*
I know she's coming. I finish my progesterone tomorrow. I just wish it weren't so. I love spending time in the hut, and I love being a powerful, menstruating woman, but I really wish I were pregnant.


Lately I've had the grossest smell to my girly parts.
I don't know what's causing it, and I've been bathing them a little more than normal since it started.
There's really no other way to describe it except for wet wood chips. It literally smells like a dirty rat cage. (Sorry, that's the best I can do.)
I'm wondering if I have a bladder infection. This part's really embarrassing...
Sometimes, okay, a lot of times, if I sneeze, or cough, or laugh or move the wrong way, I spill some urine.
I've taken to wearing a pad all the time, but it doesn't really help much.
Could this be causing some of the smell?

Sorry, I know it's too much information. I just don't know where else to turn. You ladies have provided me with great information before, and I appreciate anything you can tell me now.
Thanks!

That does sound like a bladder infection, possibly combined with a vaginal infection (the latter can easily turn into the former, because it's very easy to spread vaginal fluids to the urethra while wiping or having sex, including masturbation). Get to your doctor as soon as you can, especially since you want to get pregnant. Make sure you tell the doctor that, too. Take a urine sample with you if you can.

I was TTC this month too (I had a miscarriage on 10/4), and it was a HUGE disappointment when AF came busting through the door last night, bringing her friends the uber-cramps with her :(
Hopefully December will be our magic month.

any sort of unusual smell can mean you have a vaginal infection. do you have any other symptoms? i think you should give your doctor a call :)
