I finished off my prescription of clomid and I'm just waiting to go in tomorrow to see how we did. It's always up in the air about these things.
Wish us luck!

why write a blog?

When I started to push everyone around me away because I was hurting so bad inside I had to start venting somewhere besides my husband and one faithful friend. I started this blog to just let me blow off some steam about how unfair this was. I started reading other infertility blogs and felt a bond, a sister hood. It was very helpful to see what others have gone through and made me realized I don't know how long this trial is going to last. I don't know when I'll hold my babies in my arms, and that is why I opened this up. We don't need to cry alone at night and fight our battle alone. Having this blog has helped me realized I can do so much more then complain. Although, I warn you I still have my angry days and vent, but for the most part this is a place to share infertility feelings. Please feel free to email: Aubs03@gmail.com
