Infertility

A word..

An encouraging word! Please know that today, while you test, cry, hug pillows, eat ice cream for breakfast ( like I did) have blood drawn, have someone irritate you or tell you "It'll happen!" that we are all here for you, and love you and definitely understand what you're going through. Also know that you're beautiful, smart, funny, bright and have blessed my own life just by helping me. I want to return the favor! God gave us these challenges because he knows we won't take our own babies lives for granted, and that we will cherish every poopy diaper, every 3 am scream, and every irritating motherhood moment. <3 Smile at yourselves, and tell yourself "You can do it."
Have a wonderful day!!

    IVF #3: ER 12/1 and only 2 retrieved.  1 fertilized with ICSI.  Was planning on transferring one fresh and one frozen....fresh was only 14 cells at day 5...CANCELLED and devastated due to 5cm blood filled cyst in ovary and blood in uterus.
