.Peculiar Baby. {5} Naturalist

I went in and saw Harriet today. Oh Harriet....she is something else.

And you know what, I liked her! A lot!!!

She is all about your body's frequencies, reflexology and helps you understand what makes your hormones, organs, and levels all work. My father-in-law is into this kind of natural medicines, and I totally believe it!

She first applied pressure on all my pressure points on my feet. Telling me to let her know when it hurt. It only hurt on one are of my foot and from there she knew exactly what was wrong. She did a few more test and we talked about what is going on.

Well...basically none of my hormones are functioning correctly. My liver is over working, I have hardly any calcium, something above my pituitary gland that is supposed to release hormones isn't, because like 3 other things in my body aren't functioning correctly. And breathe...

So she gave me 4 different types of drops to take, 3 different herbs, and 2 creams. Sounds intense right? It's not really. Hearing her explain everything made total sense. But you know what hit home the most and made me almost cry??

She was doing a frequency test on me and said "Oh wow...{looks up at me}, how did you do in school growing up?" I said "Horribly, I had the hardest time comprehending and focusing". She could tell and said this is something I have been battling with for over 15yrs. {Which makes total sense bc I started struggling in elementary}. 

Anyway, at the end of my visit I felt totally and completely relieved and reassured. She also told me that the reason my prolactin level spiked so high and went down so quickly is from stress-imagine that!

I am to take everything she gave me for 4 months {some for only 2 or 3}. And I am to NOT get pregnant in the mean time. I do not have enough of everything to supply the right nutrition for myself and a baby to keep us both healthy. So no need to spend money on fertility pills any more ;) 

I will stay consistent with everything Harriet has told me to do and have faith that everything will work out. I am going to be okay, and I am going to get myself healthy {well the parts inside of me that are not} and I will carry and have a healthy baby someday. But that day is not today, and will not be tomorrow either. And I am 100% okay and at ease with that. 

If any of you would like Harriet's information, let me know. I have 100% confidence in her and have heard she has helped many girls get pregnant. She also said I was her 3rd client in this week with fertility problems, she knows her stuff, I'm tellin ya!

.Cruisin.

Levi and I had the opportunity to take our third cruise together within a year. I feel like one lucky lady getting to do so. This time, we went with some of our bestest friends. We have such a great group of us and wish everyone could have gone! Our cruise went down to Puerto Vallarta and Cabo San Lucas. 

The weather was nice, too cold to lay out, but still so beautiful! The boat rocked...a lot...and I think either because of the boat rocking or from me actually not being on the go go go 24/7, I slept..a lot...Our friends all joked with Mister and I saying that they've never met a couple that sleeps so much. Whoopsie! We like our sleep and naps when we can and we're usually too busy to get much of either of those!

Our first port was on Puerto Vallarta. Not much to do there but walk around. We did find 1hr massages for $32. They weren't too shabby either! {my sister Christy is still way better might I add}. We ate lunch at a local taco shop and the guys there tried getting us to pay way too much for our bill. Luckily Levi knows his spanish as if it was english. And it almost got him into a fight because he is able to talk back so quickly. eeekk!

Our second port was Cabo. We went to Lover's beach for a couple of hours, walked around town and had some amazing virgin mango and pina/banana colada's! 

I didn't want to take time posting a weeks worth of pics one by one, or even a few in a collage here and there. So you get to enjoy them in one BIG collage! No order, no reason, just our fun weeks adventure!

Thanks Cam, Alyse, Em, and Jon for vacaying with us!

 Next stop: Durango! 

.Peculiar Baby. {4}

I had my appointment with Dr. B this morning. You ready for this?......EVERYTHING is fine! Woohoo! No tumor and get this, my prolactin level is right where it should be! I don't understand why or how it lowered itself within a week from each blood work I had done, but it is what it is. So, why I haven't gotten pregnant? It just isn't time I guess. Why I am having headaches, who knows! I will admit I was a little bitter after leaving his office today, Mister was there so I had to hold in my emotions until I got to my car. And every emotion went through my head. I am relieved that everything is okay, but I was hoping that there was something there and it being the reason why I wasn't getting pregnant. But really, it is okay. I am fine and hopeful for what is to come down the road. There are other options that can be taken and more doors to go through. This is a trial I have been given, a trial to learn something that I need to learn. Now, more than ever, I am leaning on the Lord to help me get through this. I will be a mother someday, but now just isn't that time and I am at ease with it.
Dr. L has given me some medication to take to help me get pregnant, and now that my prolactin is where it needs to be, I can take it. I also am going to see Harriet. Harriet is a naturalist. I know my body is a little off and I am not myself and I know that she can help me level everything out the natural way. I have heard nothing but good things about her. So if you have been to her or know someone has, I would love to hear from you!
Thank you everyone for the support. You are all amazing! And to my friends and readers who are having a difficult time, I know what you're gong through and hope that you will be able to get pregnant soon!

.Before&After Hutch.

Before...

After

I bought this darling for $75 and put $20 into it. Not to shabby if you ask me! It's not perfect, but the flaws add character right? Best part, it only took me 3 days to do it (probably could have been done in 2 days, but I wasn't in a huge rush to get it done that quick). It looks pretty dang cute in my parents house right now, but can't wait to get it into our future home some day. I am itching to re-do another one too! Branch out to other colors. Maybe a Navy one? hmmm....decisions decisions...
