I'm Currently Feeling: | I was told by my doc to stay on the vits after my mc.. As far as the other stuff , i think everything in moderation and stay healthy, really. I have been told though vitamin c w/ folic acid for guys is really good for their sperm.
Dont forget it takes 3 months for new sperm to be produced and about the same time for an egg to mature..
Good luck, and sorry to hear about your loss, hun, xxxx |
