Everyone always says parenting/having a baby is hard. I knew that. I thought that perhaps I was prepared for that. I don’t think anyone is truly prepared. The first few weeks were stressful because my husband and I are both first time parents. There was paranoia and neither of us were entirely sure what we…

It has been quite a year and there’s still a few months to go. I spent most of it pregnant and am now navigating how to be a mom. I stopped doing things I love and didn’t even feel motivated to do them while I was pregnant. A lot of the time I was so…

I realize it’s been almost a year since I last posted. I guess a lot has happened since then. Big update on my fertility adventures. In December of last year, I went in to have an embryo transferred. I don’t know if I mentioned this before but I needed up having 14 eggs retrieved for…

I know, I know. It’s been a while (again). I’m definitely still in a weird spot after my mom’s death. September 5th was her birthday. She would’ve been 62, and I still can’t help but feel how unfair it is that she didn’t get more time. The next day, my dad finally had the memorial…

My last post made me realize that I may not be doing as mentally well as I thought. I was going to make a little post to, like, dive deeper into it but then A TREE HIT MY FUCKING HOUSE. The old one, not the new one. So, yeah, I’ve been a little stressed. My…

I’ve been feeling . . . weird lately. I’m not entirely sure how to explain it. For a while I haven’t felt like doing anything, which of course can be related to all the sad shit that has been happening in my life. But now I have the feeling that I want to do something…

It has been a hot minute since I posted. I guess I needed time to cool down and all that from the failure of my last IUI cycle. I’m starting all the IVF shit soon. I have a Zoom consultation with them tomorrow and then on Friday I have another Zoom consultation with genetics people,…

So. Yesterday was a day with a lot of emotion. I did even more crying after my husband went to bed and I didn’t have a distraction. I think posting a blog helped. When I feel super sad I always need a way to get it out. I’m not so good at verbally expressing my…
