Month 1, Day 17.......Yogalicious!



I can't think of a better way to kick off the weekend than some downward dog at Balance Studio!  I motivated this morning to make the 10am class and it was a great one!  And then to reward myself for being so disciplined, I hit lululemon on the way home and scored some cute crops and a sweet tank!  This long weekend is off to a great start!

Today was the first day of applying the estrogen patch.  I was told to either apply it on my arm or stomach so I strategically placed it on my tummy where my bathing suit will cover it because we are hitting the pool for some sun!  I definitely don't need a cute little square tan on my stomach!  Estrogen is the same thing that is in birth control pills but I believe my dose is significantly higher than someone who was just using it for birth control.  You a probably thinking "why in the hell would they give her birth control when she is TRYING to have a baby!!"  Well, the goal of using the patches is to trick my system and shut it down so my ovaries can have a nice rest before they attack them with the drugs that stimulate follicle production.  Side note:  in the past birth control pills have made me crazy so I have never been able to take them, so crossing my fingers these patches don't make me a head case!!
