Great news!
What about leafy greens, sugar snap peas?
I read apples and pears without skin?
Stuff like that is so easy for me.

All good! You can eat the fruit with skin too, I do!
My Ovulation Chart currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

My family has no idea. My mom would lose it if she knew I was even considering VR and another pregnancy. I do feel crazy too (when I'm not daydreaming about another sweet baby), I was so happy to see your post!

I was told it was mid-life crisis with my last one. Lol. I said what better way to deal with life changes than to have a baby in your arms? They just don't get it. So glad to hear you do. I wish u the best! BTW I was a revearse vasectomy.

Wow. I can totally relate. The few people I've discussed this with (which really has only been my doctor and one or two close girlfriends) also seem to think I'm having a mid life crisis. Their comments have made me feel that perhaps this is true. To be completely honest here (anonymously I guess) I'm a wreck with this decision....there are so many factors and I don't know how to navigate them all at once. I don't want to hijak your introduction thread so I'll post a separate post about my struggles. Hopefully I'll get some insights and support.
Oh and i LOVE that you were a VR baby. Thank you for sharing this!!

We are getting great results with all the fruits and vegetables. We originally started off thinking that nutrients in fruit and veg would sway strongly blue but that hasn't proved to be the case. So there's no necessity to peel them any more, that hasnt seemed to matter.

I have a 24 year old, 20 year old, 7, 6, and 3 year old. All same husband. People can say whatever they want about it. I know people thought I was insane or having some midlife crisis or that I didn't know how to use birth control or something. What it really is, is a gradual awareness that I think many of us get where we suddenly don't care about what other people think or say and I wanted more kids!!! Why not?? I'd be really sad right now if my two adult guys were off doing their thing now and I had an empty nest.

Yes. Yes. And what education and joy it brings to the older kids too right? Today the violent video games are so intense. We could not compete but this little guy we have pulls them away from it and they giggle and play with him and they remember joy and love and nothing can replace the gift of that. It is such a blessing for everyone! Even the ones who complain want to get in on it once they arrive!!!
