Saw on the Today Show this morning another couple going through IVF. This one seemed to be the most "correct" portrayal of it I've seen. Thought you all might enjoy seeing it:

    I've seen bits of Bobbie's story over the past few months and I've loved how candid she has been about the emotional difficulty, weight gain, ups and downs, etc. And, as a bonus, it seems that Hoda and KL have been educated on the proper terminology!

    This video was so wonderful. The emotion on their faces was so genuine and had me sobbing :(( .

    I love her especially because I use the same RE office and her doctor was the one who checked me out right before my last FET.
