Yesterday, I had my first consultation with the homeopath from the seminar I attended a few weekends back. I had such a great appointment with her, learned a lot, have a lot more I want to research, bought a lot of stuff (like whoa a lot), and got quite a few sarcastic 'hippie' comments from the hubs.
- We're in the process of going {mostly} gluten free and dairy free. Trent loves coconut milk, and I like both coconut and almond milk. I heard there's a coconut milk yogurt that I'm going to seek out; I'm kind of concerned about cheese... Essentially though, what I'm learning is that dairy and gluten are both so hard on your system that even without an intolerance/allergy it is still best to eliminate as much as possible.
- I bought several vitamins/supplements to help boost T's immune system. Being a daycare kid, I feel like he catches a lot of stuff, and if I can keep his system healthier overall, why not, right?
- I also talked with Kaya about my struggles with post-partum anxiety. {Can we just say I was a little mortified as I teared up while sharing some of my struggles? Ugh - just such a horrible time of my life.} She's recommended several supplements I take now to help with my overall brain/hormone health and other things we'll try as baby growing commences (still not anytime soon).
I'm super excited {and very overwhelmed} about this journey - I think overall it's going to be great changes for our family. I just have to figure out how to make it all happen (and try to get my husband on-board). Wish us luck!!
Dena and I have birthdays 6 days apart. This year we had a lunch date AND went to a movie. We say 'Crazy, Stupid, Love'.
Synopsis: A father's life unravels while he deals with a marital crisis and tries to manage his relationship with his children. {imdb.com}
Review: OMG. Fantastic! Dena and I were both laughing so hard throughout the movie. The movie was a little bit romantic, a little bit comedy but perfect for girls and boys. I totally think a girl would find the romantic side great and the guys would find the comedy enough to override the romance. Ha! There were a couple of unexpected twists that were so hilarious. Plus? Added bonus - Ryan Gosling looks amazing! (Brent - don't hate.)
