New Meetup!

I am so pumped! Me and my friend Stefanie just created the first Fertility Meetup in Kansas City!! I've been wanting to do this for several months now, and tonight we finally created it! Our first meetup we'll discuss "Fertility Diet" and throw around ideas for future meetups, introduce ourselves, and share stories. It's called "The Kansas City Not-So-Fertile Meetup Group." Here's the link if you live in or near KC and want to join: http://www.meetup.com/The-Kansas-City-Not-So-Fertile-Meetup-Group

It's 1:18 am and I need to get to bed! It is well past my bed-time. I'm just so excited about getting this thing started, finally! It is sooo past due! Heck, if I can't get pregnant using all that I have learned, someone else surely will, I just know it. And if just one person improves their reproductive health, or even better, conceives!, this will be so worth it!

I am looking forward to the much-needed sense of belonging and community that this group will create for its members. Going through fertility difficulties, many of us good women feel on the fringe in society, even left out, but this group I hope will produce feelings of inclusion. And most important, this meetup will be a fertility resource hub where we can share books, information, and referrals.

My eyes are like half-open right now. I'm dabbling in the whole idea of "lunaception" or "night-lighting." It's a waning gibbous moon and I'm sleeping now with the shades open to let the light of the moon influence my monthly cycles, aided by a night-light. Hmm...I wonder if this monitor influences my monthly cycles as it does my daily sleep/wake cycles? My next post will be all about night-lighting, I promise, but for now, I need to get some z's.
