I Would Die for That

June25

I got myself in some trouble on a message board tonight… a woman posted a question on an infertility board asking if it bothered others when they see children at the RE’s office. I’ve seen this topic so many times, and it seems that a lot (not all) of IFers (read: infertiles) with no children think that they should be protected from seeing children when they go to the REs office.

Wasting Time

June22

I’m just taking a break from work while I do my IV and thought I would post here.  Nothing exciting but it beats working!

Jell-O in my Tummy and Zofran in my Veins

Hyperemesis is…

June13

… trying to get to the bathroom in time to barf while dragging an IV pole behind you.  OK, technically it’s “a debilitating and potentially life-threatening pregnancy disease marked by rapid weight loss, malnutrition, and dehydration due to unrelenting nausea and/or vomiting with potential adverse consequences for the newborn(s)” but it’s all the same to me.
