And then I realized I never wrote anything about it, but SO yesyesyes on the weight, the job, the hangover. Ugh. Baby steps, man. I'm really proud of myself right now for flossing and wearing earrings occasionally, and I've got a 10 month old who's weaned too. I started exercising to 20-minute workout tapes after the kids are in bed at night and that's made a small dent, but I think it's more about my diet than anything else.<br /><br />So! The hangover is a bitch and I'm happy to see you make strides toward getting rid of it too, and I'm only sorry that it seems to be a long process for everyone.Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02864909952004392637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1447122237329033332.post-81275712097498560622010-03-08T23:15:40.667-05:002010-03-08T23:15:40.667-05:00I absolutely get it.

You have to concoct such a hazardous framework of hope and protection and pretense and determination to get through serious infertility treatment that it's hard to deconstruct all of that and go back to being "normal". The years go by and it's hard to even know what normal should be like for you at a certain point.<br /><br />But I think you're on the right track. You have to just try to make little changes that will get you back to the place you might have been before this all took over. The whole experience does change you, and I know there are good aspects to it - being more sensitive to the "hidden" sorrows of others, for instance - but the all-consuming nature of pursuing treatment can leave you somehow depleted. Good luck with getting back to whatever you want "normal" to be!Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04180034761243431694noreply@blogger.com
