Hey Everyone! It’s been quite a while since I’ve blogged. The truth is, I am still having a really hard time. I don’t want to vent too much on here, and I don’t want to be negative – so I’ve been taking the advice of Thumper the bunny – "If you can't say something nice... don't say nothing at all" : )
To give a little update – while we were in Florida I started my period (the first one since my D&C) which was a hard reminder of what we lost. It was also twice as long as my regular periods and painful. There were nights that I didn’t sleep till past 3am just because I was overwhelmed with emotions. (thankfully we were on vacation and I could sleep in – and other than that we had a wonderful time away – a little sunshine is good for the soul!!)
I am still seeing the Naturopath – I love her – and getting weekly acupuncture. I’ve been doing pretty good with my new eating plan – and having fun trying new foods and cooking new recipes! It is challenging at times, but a good kind of challenge. It also gives me something other than ‘fertility stuff” to focus on. The crappy part is that I stepped on the scale this morning and I am 6 pounds heavier!! Eek! How’d that happen???? Thank goodness for bulky warm hoodies and comfy pants… ;) I guess I need to dust off that treadmill – that will be my goal this week-end!
Today I am standing on this verse from the amplified version:
Hebrews 13:5b
He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, I will] not, [I will] not!
Even though sometimes it has been hard for me to feel it, I KNOW in my heart that God is with me and will continue to strengthen me and I know without a doubt he WILL NOT, WILL NOT, WILL NOT ever leave me with out support!

so glad you updated. i have been wondering how you have been. florida sounds amazing. what a great verse to stand on...while i was waiting, it helped me to focus on other stuff too like you are. working out...eating healthy etc...
praying for you!
Glad to see an update...been thinking about you lately! I love that verse! I actually claimed that verse before I became pregnant. It was in one of Henry's books with a picture of a mama, dada, little boy and baby holding hands. Glad to hear that the acupuncture is still going well! Don't worry about the weight gain...making babies says that gaining weight can be one of the best things you can do for your fertility. Big hugs!!
I am glad things are going well overall. I know this is still a hard time for you. That verse is very powerful. I hope God gives you peace and guidance as you move forward.
You are so strong...I have been waiting for an update...;)
Still praying for you ... always
side note: sunshine is AMAZING for the soul...
