I've always been pretty active, too. (usually jogging/walking on the t/m and/or doing tae-bo). And I was loosely following South Beach. I'm thinking of going back on it. I'm only about 10-15 pounds overweight, but definitely a carb addict. I want to be as healthy as possible if/when we decide to ttc again. Plus I just want to feel good again. I feel so yucky right now. So, I think I would love DDR on Wii...that's got to be a good workout, right?
My dr. did not suggest a d&c. From the u/s, it looks like I passed the majority of everything. There wasn't a sac left or anything. So I guess I'm still shedding the lining? It's gotten a lot better, but still bleeding and cramping on and off. Nothing like it was over the weekend.
My 5 year old was the one that was upset. My little one (she's 4), just went back to eating her applesauce. I think she knew it was a sad thing, but just didn't really grasp it. My oldest was sobbing, "I want a baby" over and over. She seems okay now, the thing that helped her the most was telling her that we have a baby angel now.
Right now the hardest thing is realizing that life still goes on...I still have stuff to do for work, laundry piling up, places to take the kids, meals to feed them, etc. etc. when all I really feel like doing is crawling into bed with the covers over my head. DH has been amazing (and I know it's hard for him, too), but he's at work all day. Today's easier than yesterday, so I'm hoping tomorrow's easier than today.
Hope you all are having a good afternoon. |
