I’m in this odd place of being treated by a fertility specialist without being infertile. Necessarily. I mean, I might be. Or Jerrad might be. We really don’t know.
If you look at my about page or my various social media bios it sure looks like we’ve been actively trying for a long time with no [...]

Yesterday I had my post-surgery follow-up appointment with Dr. Specialist and we got the official go-ahead to start trying to conceive again.
Well, I suppose again isn’t exactly the right word, since all of our previous trying efforts were destined from the start to be futile on account of how there were a bunch of [...]

Seriously, thanks for asking! I love that you and I have the kind of relationship where I can talk about having anemia and taking lots of iron, and then my blog comments, facebook status update comments and twitter replies all have friends asking how I’m pooping.

For [...]

I swear I start every post lately with an apology and an explanation about where I’ve been.
Once again, the answer should be no surprise. I’ve been unpacking and organizing, all while dealing with a moderate IBS flare-up. Which is kind of why I haven’t written – I’ve had things to say but not the time [...]

Have I mentioned my love and adoration for Flashback Friday? Make sure you go visit our lovely hostess, Scary Mommy, and read all the other posts!
This one takes us back to the beginning of my infertility saga. It was originally posted in three parts so it’s super long. You should probably go get a [...]

I haven’t blogged the last few days because I’ve been having a big fight with my stupid uterus. The whole thing was totally my uterus’ fault.
There I was on Tuesday, minding my own business, all caught up in babymaking, temperature taking, fertility charting excitement, when my ob/gyn called to tell me the results [...]

This time my excuse for not blogging every day is that it’s been a hell of a week. The last time we met I was stressing about my hysterosonogram appointment, and that has kinda consumed all my attention.
Which, incidentally, means I have not done so well with all those healthy changes I was ready [...]
