Cold and TTC

I am on cd13 and I have a sinus infection and sore throat. This is our 3rd cycle on Clomid and we are not passing this opportunity up. I was just wondering if it is possible to get pregnant while I am sick. I am not taking any medication for it. Just letting it run its course. I am trying to rest and take in more fluids. Also, If you all have any advise on this, I will gladly take it!

It may make BD-ing a little interesting... Any way to be sick and still make it sexy?

It's absolutely still possible to get pregnant :) In fact, I have a friend who tried for 3 years with no success and lo and behold she conceived while she had bronchitis (child is now a teenager). She thinks it was because (due to the bronchitis) she was taking guafenisin which thins out mucous and can therefore also thin out cervical fluid making it easier for sperm to swim.
So anything is possible at any time :) Hope you feel better soon.

No. I hard to have a cracked tooth pulled on Monday. Then I ended up having an infection in my jaw. It hurts to talk. I really hope that the antibiotics dont hurt fertility.

I'm not supposed to do any "extraneous" activity. But I told the dr that this was bd week and he laughed. This is really making bd-ing hard, and not sexy at all.
