My meds, my experience and my faith 💗

I'm not the most eloquent writer but I want to record my experiences and the meds I am taking. 

Meds and supplements to prevent a first time loss
*Vitamin D due to my deficiency and like between low D and miscarriage
* NO caffeine due to limited studies that show some people with caffeine sensitivity are prone to unexplained loss 
*Magnesium, by drinking Natural Calm, every morning - recommended by Dr. Sheri Hamersley 
*Progesterone 200 mg orally. I doubled up until 8 1/2 weeks to 400mg. 
*Lovenox 40 mg every night due to recommendation from Dr Hamersley
*Vitafol OB prenatal with iron added 
*** Vitamin B6 and Unisom. I started this at around 8 weeks because of nausea. 

Meds I changed and added because of sub-chorionic hemorrhage
*After every major bleed I take extra progesterone in the morning. 
*I had stopped the B6 at 13 weeks when my nausea subsided. I resumed it at 19 weeks to get to help my SCH heal 
*I take additional magnesium to calm my uterine contractions (I cramp up during bleeds which increases the risks of preterm labor) 
*Colace every other day so I don't strain and bleed 

My Faith
Every day I tell God "I will not ask you why, but I know you will sustain me through whatever happens"

I was at a pretty high weight all summer, and yet I couldn't give up the treats to just cut back or lose a few pounds. It is really hard for me to do that.  So how did I start again? And why did it take? I have NO idea. I don't really even remember how long ago I started? A Sunday? I don't know. I do know HOW I started.  I ate: 2 hard boiled eggs, a salad with grilled chicken and a low sugar yogurt, a Sargento snack pack for snack and a low carb dinner. I ate the exact same thing the next day. I resolved  myself to absolutely NO cheating, because sugar causes a desire for more sugar. Sugar in me triggers inflammation, which wants more sugar to feel better.  I also cut out gluten. Which I think has had such a significant impact on my progress.  This week a day for...

Coconut Fat Bombs

Sunday thoughts

  Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. Isaiah 1:27 find this quote to really correlates what's going on in the world today where people are turning away from religion and yet still pointing fingers. They're blaming the immigrants they're blaming the people who are separated from their kids and that they're not loving them the way that God has taught us to love people and I just wish that God would surely bring his spirit and his grace
