Pineapple Pregnancy : )
Since we are trying to conceive I thought I would share this.... Nolan and I LOVE pineapple so we will definitely be trying this
Using Pineapple to Assist Implantation:
Pineapple contains bromelain. Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme that breaks up proteins that inhibit embryo implantation. Consuming a whole pineapple (focusing on the core as it has the highest concentration of Bromelain) during a fertility cycle can be beneficial.
For IVF cycle: consume equal amounts over five days, beginning on the day of your embryo transfer.
IUI cycle: consume equal amounts over five days, beginning on the day of your IUI.
Timed intercourse cycle: consume equal amounts over five days, beginning on the day after ovulation.
Note: Be careful not to start consuming pineapple too early in the cycle. Beginning to consume pineapple BEFORE the recommended days above can actually affect your vaginal and cervical mucus PH, making it more acidic.

Lizard fun
While playing in the kiddy pool we found a lizard. Nolan LOVED it and kept calling it a Rabbit. He was very distraught when we had to let it go but I quickly showed him these pictures of our little friend and he calmed down. It was a great learning experience for him. It has been so hot out that we don't go out unless were playing in the sprinklers.... Usually I just drench myself and do yard work while he waters the flowers and splashes in puddles : )
