TTC After a Loss

interesting article about the 2ww and IVF

Good morning, all! I stumbled across this article this morning and was kind of glued to it from beginning to end (the author does mention TTC message boards, so it made me even more curious as to what she'd say!):

https://www.slate.com/articles/life/family/2012/05/the_personhood_debate_and_the_science_of_fertility_and_ivf_.html

I thought I'd share it with all of you because I found it to be an interesting perspective. It's written by a woman struggling with IF who has experienced many 2ww's herself.

On a different note, I'm sorry I've been very absent lately. I've been popping in and out, but you've all been on my mind. I've had a lot going on at home and, to be honest, I've just been really struggling emotionally. It's looking like we'll have to stay TTA months longer than we'd hoped and I'm really frustrated and feeling depressed about the outlook. 

many ((hugs)) to those who need them this morning -- and even to those who don't (you can save it for a time you do!) Smile
