That's me. I think I fell asleep at work today. The good thing is even though my energy level is low my spirits are still relatively high. I managed to get a short recovery run in yesterday and a good swim and run in today. I pray that I will pass out cold as soon as my head hits the pillow tonight, but it doesn't always happen that way for me. The main thought I have getting me through all this is that I am so far ahead of where I was last year at this point. I'm confident I could go into the race tomorrow and do well and I'm also not one bit surprised that I'm so tired. I will work on really trying to balance training with rest for the next 1.5 weeks and then it is TAPER TIME!
Sigh. Here we are again. We knew all along we would be able to start the process for baby #2 when Sloane was nine months old. I had said we did not necessarily want kids that close together, but knew just because we started then did not mean we would get pregnant then. If I had only known how true that is becoming. Silly us had started having visions of three kids. The only way we can have three kids is to have things go smoothly, not lose embryos, and not lose time. Well, so far we have lost an embryo and a lot of time in the quest for our next baby. I breezed through prep for our transfer in early May. The stress load was so much less than before because I thought we had it figured out. We had Sloane as a great distraction. My lining was better than it has ever been before - by far. Then, the day after Mother's Day, I found out it did not work. And I was immediately thrown back into the depths of infertility hell....
