  I know the IF scars follow is all. But sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the joys of new motherhood and forget to be sensitive to our IF sisters. Thanks for the reminder.

  TTC with PCOS since November 2009
  

  IUI#1 Femara/Ovidrel (cd 3-7) = BFP, m/c
  IUI#2 Femara/Ovidrel (cd 5-9) = BFN
  IUI#3 Femara/Ovidrel (cd 3-7) = BFP!
  beta #1 11/23 = 270, P4 = 75
  beta #2 11/28 = 2055
  Our daughter E was born 7/29/2012!
  Surprise, our 2nd daughter P was born 5/22/14!

  So true. I just hate that there are so many amazing women for whom Mother's Day is a painful day to endure. I feel so lucky to be in the position I am right now. But IF still sucks and it is not fair.

  
  Unexplained Infertility
  
  After two Clomid cycles, three injectable IUI cycles, two IVFs, two miscarriages, and one lap surgery, IVF #2 has brought us our little boy!
  
  
  
  TTC #2
  After months of being postponed or cancelled, FET #1.3 (Natural FET) brought us twin girls!
  
  

  
  
  

  Surprise! Baby #4 is due in March!

  Thanks for sharing this!

  I remember how difficult Mother's Days were and I wish it wasn't for so many. I definitely will be thinking of those dealing with IF. Grr.

  Thanks, Penny. Great article. My pastor always does a really nice segment on mothers day about infertility, loss, and single women waiting for mr right. 

  My heart aches for my IF sisters, but it also aches for my pack of single girlfriends who are "running out of time" to find mr right and try to have children.
