I’m M.I.A. No More!

Hi guys, it’s been a while. Actually, I didn’t realize how long it’s been until just a few days ago. I’ve had a few things going on in the last several months, mostly health issues that took me a long time to correct. I was severely anemic for a few months, something I started correcting about a month and a half ago, and now I feel sooooo much better. I’d never been anemic before, so I wasn’t aware of how down, tired, and sick it can make you feel. For a while I didn’t feel like doing anything, and it was all I could do to finish the laundry and the dishes. So, note to the wise: take extra iron if you’re pregnant. (Floradix rules! And they have a gluten-free and yeast-free version!) Also, I’ve had a terrible case of the flu that lasted for - I kid you not - a whole month. I think what caused it to last so long was that I was still balancing my body’s iron levels out, among other things. I just had no reserves to fight the flu with, so it took me a long time.

All this is to say, I’m sorry I haven’t posted in so long. Yeah, I have some good excuses, but I’ve really missed writing and connecting with you guys. I have some stuff that’s been on my mind, and I’d love to share it with you here. In my quest for a healthy and balanced pregnancy, I’ve found some amazing products, and I can’t even begin to relay the information I’ve found on modern birth practices in our society. I feel like I’m bursting with information again, and I’m excited to be back.

Well, at least until a tiny bundle of joy once again disrupts our lives. But that will be a most welcome disruption.
