A inventory of what I have done this past week to improve my fertility naturally:
1. Went to my first fertility yoga session on Saturday. It was incredibly relaxing and I learned several things that I can apply at home.
2. Got my husband to do a few of the partner exercises with me last night. Unfortunately, he is out of town all week, so I will be doing them solo until Friday.
3. Made better food choices. Still focusing on whole grains, more fruits and vegetables, less sugar, more whole milk. Bought a much higher percentage of organic foods. All grains were whole grains.
4. I have been exercising a lot more. This past week at the gym I have taken: 2 dance classes, 2 spinning classes, and a yoga class. I have also done 2 days of the couch to 5K program. I will hit the gym this afternoon for the last day of running until Thursday.
5. I have tried to use the relaxation techniques I have learned to calm down more. I still have a ways to go with that.
6. Had my first acupuncture session. It was strange and I didn't notice any changes, but I laid down quietly and peacefully for an hour, which I consider to be a blessing.
7. I didn't eat donuts at church yesterday, pie on Wednesday or brownies on Thursday. Huge victories over sugar! I did make a few not so great choices, but they were much more moderate.

Things I want to do this week:
1. Maintain my healthier eating, which will be more challenging since my husband is out of town.
2. Make healthy choices when I eating out tonight and tomorrow. Tonight should be easy-- it is sushi. Tomorrow is Mexican food, i think fajitas with whole wheat tortillas will probably be the best option.
3. Keep up the exercise. Going out to eat cuts into my gym time, so I will have to be creative. Luckily the couch to 5 k program only requires 20 minutes at a time.
4. Not ovulate until Friday!
5. Do some of the calming yoga poses/breathing exercises each night before bed.
6. Get my house clean.
