infertility can really suck.
After keeping it a secret for many years, I finally "came out" with my disease in 2015. I was tired of fighting against all of the ridiculous expectations placed on me by society - like when I should get married or start a family. Along the way, I learned how to navigate the "secret world" of infertility - on my own - and alone. It sucked!
I just can't let that happen to you!
Thus, I've created this blog for YOU, to make you laugh, remind you that you CAN DO THIS, and to offer resources to help you keep fighting like the warrior that you are!
I remember this defining moment like it was yesterday. The doctor told me that it was almost impossible for me to conceive. She told me that it was going to be a huge uphill battle if I wanted to get pregnant. I had already tried multiple rounds of fertility treatments, IUIs, IVF, laparoscopy, acupuncture, Chinese herbs, you name it. Infertility was my life. It had consumed every piece of my being. I didn’t go on trips, I didn’t eat certain foods, I was wearing UGG boots in the summer because someone told me it would help my fertility if I kept my feet warm.
