Getting it all together.. or atleast somewhat

I am on my way to getting it all together...well as much as possible in the last 6 weeks.  Taking a break on fertility treatments was scary, but I think this was the right choice.

1.  Down 17lbs! ( in 6 weeks!)
- The eating plan is going great, cravings aren't too bad, and I am enjoying feeling healthier.
DH is also down 17lbs which is an awesome bonus! 23lbs to hit my RE's goal and 33lbs to hit my goal!

2. Supplements- Oh vey- hard time getting them and trying to find a new soy free prenatal was DIFFICULT!

3. Dh and I have had some awesome talks discussing our feelings and plans for treatment.  Going through our options makes me feel more at peace.  I have accepted all my options now so I feel hopeful one of them will work.

4.  Taking this break has allowed me to de-stress.  I feel calmer and less upset. I even have been pinning on my secret baby pinterest board.  My attitude is WAY better! Not that I don't have my moments. One ill timed baby facebook announcement can send me spiraling but DH is my rock!

5. Still looking into acupuncture! ( kind of scared for some reason)

May Update

So I haven't updated in awhile... Here is the cliff notes version of what is going on...

1. Went to Disney with the love of my life to celebrate our anniversary and take a break- it was so much fun and the mental rest was very  much needed! I can't wait to take our kids there one day!

2. Saw NP and started vigorous dieting... lost 13lbs so far (yeah!) It hasn't been that bad.  Now I need to get the supplements rockin!

3. Got through Mother's Day without a breakdown...

4.  DH took me downtown for my birthday to spend the night and we went to several museums and had dinner etc... it was lovely!


That pretty much sums it up!  DH and I are feeling good about our plan and our mood is more optimistic than I thought.  We are technically on a break from TTC, but we feel more hopeful then ever.  We know that the road ahead will not be easy, but we know that we will get our family! We are trusting in God's timing and perfect plan for us.

I turned 36 today... That is a bit depressing, but I just have to remember what my RE told me... I don't have to stress about my age right now. I am trying to remember that!
