Blogoversary

Yesterday marked one year since I have started this blog!! I can't believe it has been that long. I secretly hoped that by starting a blog about infertility I would quickly get pregnant and wouldn't have any use for it.....obviously that didn't happen.

I must say it has been quite a roller coaster over this past year, physically and emotionally. I don't think I could have gotten through it without all of you. I am so thankful for all of your support. I never would have thought I would have 72 followers and 14,000 views!!!

I have also been blessed to meet 2 woman IRL (in real life) dealing with infertility.

  • Meghan - I found her blog and saw that she lived close so I e-mailed her and we met up. It was great to talk to someone face-to-face about the daily struggles of infertility. She is now pregnant after 4 LONG years and I am so happy for her.
  • Theresa - I found her blog too, but coincidentally she had already been in contact with Meghan. So the three of us had dinner one night and talked for hours. Her and I were both getting ready to go through IVF at the same time with the same Dr.!!! I was thrilled to have a cycle buddy to talk to about all the crazy things that happen during an IVF cycle. We talked all the time, and were twins as far as results (# of eggs, bloodwork, ect.) until after ER. She ended up getting OHSS and had to cancel her ET!! I am so sad for her...I can't imagine how she must feel. It's not fair that I made it to transfer and she didn't. My heart aches for her!! Please go give her some love and support!!

Thank you again for reading my story and giving supportive comments along the way. They mean more than you will ever know!!
