in Infertility
Man I'm tired of infertility. Another 0 beta. What is happening to our embryos? They are "not even trying to implant" as one nurse put it. Are they arresting after they're transferred? Sigh. If I'm destined to have a baby can I please fast forward to my BFP because this shit is hard...
