April ICLW & Article

Welcome April ICLW!

It's that great time of the month (ha, ha, get it?) when we all branch out, visit other blogs and LEAVE COMMENTS & where the virtual hugging goes a bit crazy! Yay! Thank you for stopping by, if you're new.

My quick story is on the right, but basically, married 3 1/2 years, ttc about 2 1/2 years, 2 IUIs, one of them resulting in a chemical pregnancy for which I had to dissolve with methotraxtate last Thanksgiving. I've gone through a painful period especially since then but the blogging world has helped tremendously. And we've decided to do IUI #3 this cycle.

One other quick thing that I'd like to share is an article called The Psychological Component of Infertility. Rachel from The Pughs pointed me to Lisa at Worship While I Wait, who posted the article on her blog here, when I was having a hard time this weekend and I'm so grateful because this article validates everything (almost) I've been feeling - I'm sure you'll feel the same way. Someone (not sure if it's Lisa) underlined throughout the article, which makes it a lot easier to read since it's kinda long.

Have a tissue box nearby when you read it. Trust me. In advance, I give you all (((hugs))) when you read it.

  4. All I can say is wow! And written in 1985. You would think more of that info would be more accessible at this point...
