The BIG news, but not the Biggest! YET!

Happy, Happy, Happy Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yesterday, I went to my GI doctor to talk about the results of my colonoscopy and although the Crohn's is still active (which was the only part he told me while I was coming out of anesthesia), he said we can have a baby!!!!!!!!!!!! He said the Crohn's is healing up well, and over time it will get better, especially since during pregnancy the Crohn's stays the way it is before pregnancy, so during the 9 months it will have a lot of time to heal!!!!!!!!!!! I posted this on Twitter yesterday and a lot of women with Crohn's responded saying that this was good news for them, PLEASE follow your own doctor!! This is my case, everyone is different. If you are sick and you get pregnant, you will most likely be sick during your pregnancy. Since I am not in a flare right now, I should feel good and my body will heal.

So that's my super-duper exciting news!!!! For the past few months I've been doing a lot of baby prepping with my body. I started taking the following stuff: Essential Women EFA/DHA oil, Mother to Be Yogi Tea (to strengthen my uterus), Garden of Life Raw Vitamin Code Prenatals and Maca Powder. A few months ago the lovely Kristen from Kristen's Raw gave me a ton of info on preparing my body for pregnancy. THANK YOU KRISTEN!!!! I've been using all of her advice! Right now I am doing the Raw Cleanse, and adding cilantro to my smoothies for some extra cleansing. So no baby making yet! ;)So besides all that good stuff, here's what I've been eating this week: kale salad with cherry tomatoes, avocado and a scoop of hummus and a Falafel Sunshine Burger on a romaine leaf with Bubbies pickles, hummus and avocado.
This was a mug of raw hot chocolate from Gnosis chocolate, that we bought in the city. This stuff is so good!!!!
Broccoli and White Bean soup! I through this together last night with some broccoli I got from my co-op box last week and white beans we had in the pantry. This was excellent!
Finally, I was awarded the Sunshine Award TWICE last week!!! Thank you Bitt and Joanna! HUGS!
Have a nice day everyone!! I have a permanent grin, ear to ear today! I can't even imagine what it's going to be like when I get the news that I am actually pregnant! AHHHH!!!
