A better day

I'm surprised at actually how well I am feeling having stopped taking Methotrexate. I'm still taking Enbrel (which I'd also stopped in my last pregnancy at the same time as Mtx) as I've been told to keep taking it until I'm pregnant. I am going to stop it once we start trying though for my own peace of mind. I have heard of people taking Enbrel throughout pregnancy but I just don't think I could do that. I've barely taken codeine, I've had no anti inflammatories for about a year and I am taking paracetamol before I go to bed probably 3/4 nights out of 7 in a week but at no other time. My joints in my hands are very stiff and fat feeling. Things ache and hurt but I'm coping.
