Good News - Bad News
Copied this from my post in progress reports — If anyone (veterans, new members, etc. Have any insight here, I’m all ears).
I have some good news and some bad news o today. I’ll start with the good.
Did my measurements today (I take Sat-Sun off so Mondays are an optimal measuring day) and man. My BPFSL was just under 7” and my BPEL was at 6 3/4! When I first measured ~ 3 weeks ago I was right around 6! Normally I would write this off as poor measurements at the beginning or better (which may be likely for BPEL), but I’ve been measuring the same way since I started. Either way, super happy with the gains I’ve made thus far. However it is a little bittersweet, so. The bad news.
I had to take today off. Here’s why:
While I’ve mentioned my girlfriend and I typically go at it rather frequently, and she seems to be enjoying it just a little bit more since I started PE (not that there were any complaints pre-PE), I noticed last week she didn’t want to go at it as frequently. That’s all good with me of course, I enjoy doing it (who doesn’t), but I don’t need to have sex daily to be happy.
Anyways I noticed something Friday night during sex. While she was flat on her back and I was standing, she kind of grimaced had her hand on her lower abdominal region. She’s had lower abdominal pain/tightness since I’ve known her, but never has it been an issue during sex (at least to my knowledge). I picked this up immediately and asked if she was alright, to which she said yes and we kept going until we finished.
Then last night, same position, she reached for that same spot and I could see that she was in more serious pain this time. I immediately stopped going and asked if she wanted stop completely and she said yes. She tried to stand up and then immediately felt light headed and had to sit back down. After about 15-20 minutes she was “fine” (I can’t tell if she was just saying that but she was able to walk, eat, etc. And seemed in good spirits). However I insisted that she call the doctor, which she did today and is going to see the doctor tomorrow.
She has the insertable birth control, so both of us speculated that might be what the issue is, but I suppose we’ll find out tomorrow.
I obviously want to continue my PE journey. While it appears that I’m potentially a “hard-gainer” in terms of length, I’d just like to add about .6-1” in girth (I’ve only gained about .18” so far), I don’t want to gain too much length if it becomes an issue having sex.
I suppose if it does become an issue I’ll cut back on the manual stretches (1 set instead of 2) and use bundled stretches to focus on girth and doing more jelqs as I continue the newbie routine.
But that’s today’s situation — obviously the health of my girlfriend is primary and imperative before I start PEing again this week.
