For the first time in years, I went to bed at a reasonable time. I got 8 hours of sleep in one night during the work week. I Highly recommend it. I feel like I can take over the world 💪🏿🌍😄

Not sure how anyone survives with less than 8 hours. I am a bedtime queen and my sleep is the only way that I succeed. There's so much data that shows how absolutely crucial sleep is to our mental, physical, and emotional well-being, not to mention our intellectual capacity and longevity. You'd be a fool to not make sleep a top priority everyday.

I’m boo boo, the fool’s estranged daughter 😄 In my 20’s, I could run off of a few hours of sleep and be fine. I don't know when the shift happened, but now I need as much sleep as I can get

Trying to have faith but my recent cycle netted 16 eggs, 8 fertilized and only 2 made it to day 5 for testing. There were 3 others that just didn’t mature. This is my third cycle and I’ve been pretty positive up until today. It’s especially hard to get this news in the middle of a work day. Just tired, still bloated and not feeling all that hopeful as we enter this LONG wait until we get the results next week. I hate feeling like this knowing my chances are getting slimmer by the day.

I gained weight during my last relationship (probably around 30 lbs, and I’m 5’9”). Before my relationship, I felt like I could get any guy. But I’ve been single for 2 years now and it’s been so hard to date. I’m not sure if maybe I’ve lost confidence, but I legitimately don’t know how to get a guy to be interested. Any pointers?
