Hello All,

I figured I should update this page with more current information since a lot has changed in the past few months. I was pregnant, but sadly at the end of July found out that I had a "missed" m/c. My pregnancy story goes a little something like this: On June 8th I jumped out of bed at 6am (it was a Sunday morning)- I had a vivid dream that I was at my own baby shower (weird right?). Sure enough, I was pregnant! Wild! It was quite a surprise, but a welcome one. My husband was at work and I did not want to tell him over the phone. I spent the day in my own little world- I was elated, excited and completely shocked! I could not wait to share this with him. I wrapped up a onesie in a little round box and told him like that. It was amazing. I still smile when I think of his face! I will say, that during my pregnancy I felt fantastic (a little tired, but nonetheless, great). Unfortunatly during a rountine check up (at 10 weeks along), I found out that the baby had no heartbeat and had a D & C 2 days later. We were both saddend by our loss, but I am grateful to have the support I have had and the love of family and friends (I was also granted some closure as to why I lost the baby- you can read my blog for more detail). A little about me: I am a true advocate for overall well-being and try to achieve some sort of balance in my everday living. I am an athlete and think organic foods are the bees-knees. I call my husband Biscotti (his real name is Scotty), I have a kick-ass dog named Jesse James who gives me so much joy. I am surrounded by amazing people, I love everything pumpkin (pie, cookies, etc...) and I hate grape jelly (silly, I know). I have so many things to be grateful for so I will keep on truckin'. I am at a place in my life where I feel confident I can have a happy and healthy pregnancy and I look forward to the future.

I wish you all the best!

Dear friends

I have made an online 'pregnancy loss and support' survey and would be extremely thankful for anyone taking the time to answer it. My aim is to use the information to create a pamphlet that will equip friends and family to be more supportive after a pregnancy loss.

Please forward this to any of your friends who you think might be able to help.

Thanks again.

Love,
Karin

Dear friends, first my apologies for not responding to any of your messages the last few days. Life has been very hectic lately and by now I have 62 messages waiting for me

Anyway, wanted to let you all know I had my ultrasound yesterday. The doctor did an internal one and everything looked fine so I was very relieved. I am so glad I got it done. My lining looked normal and he could tell I had ovulated from my left ovary a few days ago, just like I thought. It is just nice to get confirmed there is nothing bad left in there and all seems to be working normally.

Also wanted to let you know I had my first acupuncture appointment on Saturday. The lady specializes in infertility and has a very high success rate. She basically explained that we need to regulate the blood flow, the hormones and nerves and that will increase the health of my eggs and make my uterus lining stronger. A few of you have asked if it hurt. The answer is yes! I didn't expect that and so was quite surprised. The needles are so thin it is hard to imagine they would cause any pain but one in my left foot hurt the whole 10 min the treatment lasted. She told me afterwards that is the area connected to conception (she used other words though) and that it is 'good' that it is hurting. It means there is something off balance and it needs fixing so we are on the right track. It was overall a good experience, not weird in any way.

Again, thanks for all the messages I have received lately and sorry I haven't responded yet. I am working on it

Love,
Karin
