A Baby Proposal



The Battle Continues

Tuesday, 22 September 2009 00:00    PDF Print E-mail
It’s pretty well known that guys do not tend to talk about their feelings. My guy is no different. He doesn’t really like to discuss the whole infertility issue and really doesn’t like to talk about next steps and what we should do. I think the Hubs philosophy is that when it happens it will happen, which drives me bonkers!
 

Lars and the Fertility Specialist

Normally I don't really rock out to the head banging, hard rocking music like Metallica, but the other night I got to experience them live. The music was loud. There was fire. It was pretty awesome. I had my Hubs with me and two friends. The whole going to the concert was pretty much a favor to the Hubs because I drag him to all the concerts I want to go to — all my weird music as he calls it. I don't know why he would think that bands with names like O.A.R., Grizzly Bear, Death Cab for Cutie and The Dead Weather are weird.
 

No, I'm Not Going to Attack Anyone

Labor Day weekend is such a glorious thing. Three days with no work is so nice, especially after a long week full of deadlines. On Saturday morning we headed to visit family, and my mom had warned me beforehand that my cousin’s wife is pregnant. I’m glad they feel the need to “warn” me. It’s not like I’m just going to break down right there when I see a bulging belly. I don’t just attack pregnant people or anything like that.
 

A Happy Cycle

Another four weeks have gone by and another cycle comes to a close. That means that a new cycle has begun. Normally this would bring tears and frustration. Well, this time was no different, but there’s a glimmer of hope. Big changes have been happening around the house and with the body.

 

Infertility on TV

Friday, 28 August 2009 08:24    PDF Print E-mail
I’m a huge fan of the TV. I also love my DVR. It allows me to watch more shows in less time. It might be one of the greatest inventions in my lifetime – not really, but I truly don’t know what I’d do without it now that I have one. One of my favorite shows is Mad Men. It’s just stylish, a good story and deals with some real issues.  A couple weeks ago, season three started and in preparation I watched all of season two. In the first episode of the second season, Pete comes home to a distraught wife. She’s upset because she has found out that a friend of hers is pregnant and goes on to tell a story about seeing a pregnant, dumpy lady and how they are all in a special club. Can you feel her frustration and pain? I sure can.
