Through the connections I’ve been making on Twitter I have found a couple of great resources that should be shared:
First is a beautifully written article about how infertility hurts at Totally Her.
The second is an article about how mindset can sometimes control our destiny. I know that I often say to myself, “I don’t want […]

If I told you I was a good cook there is no way you would believe me after seeing the photo associated with this post. But I am - here is another sample of my work (a cheesecake) - proof that I can bake (which is different than watching a boiling pot). For the […]
Read More..>>Lesson Learned

One of the greatest lessons I learned during our infertility journey was to research, research, and research some more. I learned as much as I could about what causes infertility and then when we received our diagnosis, I researched how it would be “cured.” My husband, however, didn’t seem to learn this same lesson.

Yesterday I posted about my gloomy week last week. We’ll last night I started to realize why I was down and today I had an “ah-ha” moment. I’m sharing this because sometimes we block out the reason we might be mad or sad because we don’t want to admit what is actually causing that emotion […]

Last week was a gloomy week and I wasn’t able to really pull myself out of the blahs. The thing that bugs me the most is that I have no idea why I am blue. Nothing is wrong. My husband was working long hours the past two weeks and I’ve noticed over the years that […]

Do you believe that you create your own destiny? I do now, but I didn’t a few years ago.
Before my DH and I decided it was time to start trying to conceive (TTC) I joked that he was sterile. About 12 months after TTC his semen results showed poor sperm (slow swimmers, etc.). I had […]

Ever since I was in high school I have volunteered off-and-on in some capacity for various organizations. I took a break while in college and used that time to study and/or party. After all, you only get one chance to really enjoy being in college!
Before I started the journey to motherhood I donated my time […]
