Progress!!

I had set out to start getting more active while on this break, and for a few weeks, had just let it go, and kind of put it off, doing little things here and there but no real pattern...So this last week/this week, I decided enough was enough....So I set it up with my neighbor to run twice a week, and I did it! I did just over a mile the first time, and 2 miles last night...On my days "off" from running I am swimming 30 mins at a time, getting my heart rate up, and working those muscles with no no impact...VERY refreshing! And I feel so good! More energy, and confidence, and satisfaction that what I set out to do, I am doing!!

I have had a few slip up's in regards to food choices...I totally threw gluten free to the wind after the ectopic, but have been trying to stick to low sugar/low carb type diet...I will get back on gluten free again starting in august, so that by the middle of sept, when we start TTC again, I will be back in the swing of things. I really struggle with sticking to diet changes...My weakness is salty, starchy foods, and sweets! But I will overcome, and I WILL lose weight, get healthy and be in good shape for our rainbow baby to nestle in to!

So that's what is going on for now...

Time to sit down and re-evaluate my supplements list, and see what I need to adjust...I will be back with all that info soon!

What you should know if you are considering a tubal reversal

By
Its been 8 years. 8 years since we took a trip to NC to see DR. Montieth in Chapel Hill. I remember being so excited. I had this picture in my head of how it was going to go during, and after it all. For those of you who don't know, I had my tubes tied in 2009, after the birth of my 3rd, directly following a traumatic still birth. It was a decision made out of fear and trauma, not an informed decision. I ended up having adverse health issues (PTLS) after, and was desperate to find a solution. I stumbled upon a private chat room with others also struggling. Several had gone for a reversal, and seemed to feel so MUCH better after. I had already seen my doctor umpteen times, and they offered no solutions, and insinuated it was "in my head".... I saw all of these ladies posting the day OF surgery saying that they felt relief! I was like, "Yes, this is it!!"... So we saved the 6 Grand, and went and did the reversal. I was PUMPED. I started a blog, YouTube video and F...

Lost for words...

I have been a funk...Not really much to say that has not already been said before..I feel like such a broken record....But I guess I should start somewhere, and give a little update of some kind... I have posted a few picture quotes that reflects some of how I am feeling, but I cannot seem to articulate MY feelings right now, in a personal way that is comprehensible to others, and doesn't make me look like an ungrateful bitch... I guess I will start off by saying, we had another chemical this last cycle...( + test's at 6/7 dpo- 9 dpo, (I tested early cause I almost threw up while socially smoking a cigg and having a drink with my friend and I didnt temp so I didn't know really where my cycle was for sure) and by 10 dpo tests had faded some, and AF came the NEXT day, even while still taking 800 mgs of progesterone supps (which I did start late at 7dpo, the day I got my first positive but none the less), giving me a whopping 10 day LP...=/ Here is one of my FRER's f...

I am scared to even get a little excited.... I want to be elated right now...I do...But all I can think of are the "what if's"....I am going to try and stay as positive as possible, and keep saying over and over..."My body WILL carry this baby to term, I will have a take home baby!" Here is a pic ( below) of the dried test progression
