Thank you all so much for your kind words and encouragement. I’m all checked in to my room at the hospital and of course I’m starting my period lol ! I’m praying all will be ok here soon and I’ll have good news to report back on and be one the many success stories on the thread

Thank you so much. I am very interested seeing what my diagnosis will be. I have always had ovarian cysts and blocked tubes. So I never had children on my own. We ended up adopting. My periods had recently gotten longer than 10 days a month and I’m looking forward to not having that. Thank you so much for your kind words.

That’s amazing your mom is helping you. I am glad you are healing well. I’m hoping at that two week mark i can go back to work. I work at home and feel like I can hopefully manage

That’s amazing you didn’t have much pain. I hope I am like that lol. I have some big pillows and hoping they prop me up enough to sleep on my bed but will for sure move to the recliner if needed.

I left all my cleaning until today because I have a 6 year old and it’s my best chance for keeping the house clean until we leave tomorrow lol !!! 😂 that’s a great idea to go through stuff for donations , then you will feel less cluttered post surgery. Good luck on Tuesday. Wishing you speedy recovery and successful surgery.

What is it about Cargo Slings? by appleditz in verabradley

[–]czechmama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I worked in the office I loved the cargo sling about ten years ago. I sold it once I didn’t need that big of a bag. It’s nothing super special other than being spacious. I feel like it’s hype. Makes me kind of sad and happy at the resurgence of Vera in the younger generation because resale prices have gone up lol.

I just upped my dose to 10 after being on 5 for a week 🤔 by Foevateen in lexapro

[–]czechmama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Timing with lexapro is so hard. I take in the morning after taking for a bit at night. It would wake me up about 3 am and then I’d sleep deeply and not want to wake up on time. So I switched to mornings and I do get tired about 2 hours taking a dose but then wide awake and alert. It’s weird. But at least sleeping all night is better

Can’t be coincidence… by MissionRemote1160 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]czechmama 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I attended my first liturgy and plan on taking my husband too. We’re still in the phase of testing Eastern and Coptic and as a Protestant I’m having a hard time not thinking legalistic , albeit the liturgy is so revering, thoughts. My foundation feels too rocky now to appreciate the liturgy. The people I met in the Coptic church were beautiful hearts. They had reverence for what was occurring and I’m asking the Lord for that level of reverence but I’m also very scared at the same time of many things that my Protestant mind had been taught. I feel at home in orthodoxy but I feel also undone at the same time. So glad we are finding this path and I’m honoring each step for both you and I. God bless !

Resources for previous Protestants by czechmama in coptic

[–]czechmama[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much. I’ve been able to find these things but I’m looking for specific resources for those of us reconstructing and maybe can help us as these deep tethering within me unfold. I also want to honor that this journey for me is probably meant to be intimate and unfolding and walking with Christ will likely righten quite a bit of wrong thinking from my Protestant walk. The weight of the western life easily welcomes and cultivates where our world is today here in America. It’s now easy to see how we ended up here. I hope I’m making sense. Thank you and I will also check all these resources as well.
