Checking In

It's been a few weeks since updated and I have to admit, things are just chugging along at a nice pace.

I'm still doing acupuncture and incorporating some additional herbs along with my healthy eating.  It has really been great, doing all of these proactive things that are really making me feel better.  Physically I have more energy and emotionally I'm not as all over the place as I was before.  Although, part of that could be because we aren't really in the middle of anything that can cause stress.  If I'm still this even keeled when IVF comes around in April I will be truly pleased!

I've been working on creating more "me" time and focusing on how many things in my life I am incredibly thankful for...it's funny how many of those things were hidden when I was overwhelming myself with IF.  The only thing that sucks is that my acupuncturist told me that I should not be running for more than 30 minutes.  I'm sure that this wouldn't be that big of a deal to some, but to me it is no fun.  I use running as a form of therapy and have come to love my time with just my dogs and the pavement.  I would love to do an 8k at the end of March in the city and I am going to bring this up to him tonight at my appt.  If he makes it clear that it would definitely not be in my best interest, then I will definitely follow his suggestion.

Even if I can't do the race, just knowing that the weather is improving and gradually getting warmer is plenty of excitement for me!  I can't wait for summer!
