Originally I had not planned on participating this month as I was supposed to be in the hospital having a baby this week, but she is being stubborn so I decided to join in! Here is a little bit about me:
*Married 12 year, ttc 11 of them.
*If there is an infertility diagnosis, we have it: endo, PCOS, blocked tube and azoospermia. We are lucky like that!
*We tried adoption twice but neither worked out.
*We tried four IUIs with donor sperm and no luck there either.
*In 2009 we started down the road of embryo adoption. Things moved quickly and after our FET in December of 2009 we were shocked to find that I was pregnant! I am due with a baby girl on August 30th.
Infertility has been an unexpected journey, one that I never signed up for. A ride that I thought would never end. Even now as I am crossing over into a new journey the affects of infertility are still with me. I am an infertile. This will not change whether we have one child or ten.
Congrats on your pregnancy (again!) I am a follower of yours already, so I am sure I have said that before.
ReplyDeleteI have a little boy and that definitely helps numb the pain of infertility but it never really goes away. We all just march forward and deal with it the best we can.
I can't wait to hear about your little's girl arrival.

Huge congrats on your upcoming baby! You must be so excited.
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely right about the fact that you never escape infertility. It's almost 5 yrs after I had my post infertility baby and I still feel the emotional effects.

BTW, I love your blog template
I keep checking on here in hopes of seeing a picture of you holding precious Maddie!
ReplyDeleteIn honor of her being on her way, I am joining ICLW for the very first time! I signed up and I will be added to the list. Do I have to write a special ICLW post, or is it okay to let commenters comment on my latest post? I think that my journey is pretty clear from the info I have in my sidebar.
Thanks!
