That was very funny. (E...I can't stop laughing. That was very funny. (Especially because there is a certain amount of grim, tough pride in updating your sig line...)<br /><br />I've had a post-idea running around in my head for a while, but i can never quite start it. Here's something that actually comes from fertile folks... whenever I say that Jack was born by IVF, it seems like the person asks "Oh, how long were you trying for?". In my head, I'm screaming. Really, this is the direction you'd like to take our conversation? How long were we in deep emotional pain? How long did I subject my body to hormonal stimulation and occasional humiliation? Did I go through enough rigor to satisfy the insanity of resorting to I-V-F? It seems that I earn the most stripes by "waiting and relaxing" until I've earned the right to more intense treatment.<br /><br />I'm sure they want to hear that it was a really long time because that would make for such a good story. Of course I always say "1 year", which is exactly how long it took us to realize that IVF would circumvent my extreme risk for higher order multiples.<br /><br />I don't understand why people want to know how long it took for me to have a baby. What can they possibly get out of that knowledge? Oh, right, freedom to judge! I might have tried for too long, or for not long enough - but they better figure out where I am in the spectrum.<br /><br />(OK, so that probably seems like an unrelated response to what you posted! The video reminds me of that issue so strongly. There are so many weird expectations about fertility...and there are weird expectations about infertility, as well)Rachaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12174370689197345283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-906930605124655048.post-12181791516406565282011-11-14T17:29:05.940-08:002011-11-14T17:29:05.940-08:00Oh man, sucky sucky BFN's!!!

Yes, I agree, I am on my first cycle of clomid.

Sounds like a good time.
Sorry ...Great pictures!!! Sounds like a good time.<br /><br />Sorry about the BFN. I've been told that the odds of getting preggo on each IUI isn't much greater than a natural cycle. Because infertility is suspected, IUI just ups your odds to normal. Given how statistics work though, your own odds improve with each additional IUI. The vast majority of women who are able to get preggo via IUI do so within the first 5 IUIs.<br /><br />It fucking sucks...guess you just jumped in my boat...welcome aboard friend.Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11900519911100476545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-906930605124655048.post-24146637029308366882011-09-18T12:20:33.458-07:002011-09-18T12:20:33.458-07:00that's a great analogy! i hope you get to the ...that's a great analogy! i hope you get to the green sand beach soon.stephanieleahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427676919832135865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-906930605124655048.post-44973244210407185992011-09-13T10:39:39.327-07:002011-09-13T10:39:39.327-07:00Don't do it...it doesn't help!!!
