the infertile breeder: May 2010
http://theinfertilebreeder.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
My story of primary infertility. the second time around. Monday, May 17, 2010. Happy birthday to me. It's not such a great week so far - I came down with a yucky cold over the weekend and called in sick today. But things are picking up. I'm feeling better and hey yippee. It's my birthday tomorrow! Not just any birthday, either - it's. So now that everyone at work is starting to notice that I'm pregnant, I don't think I'll be able to help myself from saying "Yes I am. and I'm 40 years old! Maybe I was jus...

Roccie Road: Have uterus; need eggs
http://roccieroad.blogspot.com/2010/09/have-uterus-need-eggs.html
Retired fertility warrior. Desperate to help anyone still in the game. Saturday, September 11, 2010. Have uterus; need eggs. We had our phone consult with CCRM and Dr. G. this week. No shit show to report. IF YOU READ ANYTHING READ THIS:. Dr G told me the miscarriage rate is not 40% but 25-30%. With my own eggs. I sure wish I had some clarification here. Online searches tell me 40%. Is this a reflection on the CCRM attitude? Evaluation to determine our next steps. Antral follicle count 10-11). This is a ...

Roccie Road: Youth is wasted on the young
http://roccieroad.blogspot.com/2010/09/youth-is-wasted-on-young.html
Retired fertility warrior. Desperate to help anyone still in the game. Sunday, September 19, 2010. Youth is wasted on the young. Exactly when the fuck did I get so old that this makes sense to me? I had a brilliant. Weekend. I went into the city to see my lover, Dave Matthews. Yes, I know saying you like Dave is like saying you like sunshine, summer or vacation: not incredibly complex. But for me, the love goes deep. And dirty. if he would only take me up on it. I saw darling, DARLING. I feel having deal...

the infertile breeder: October 2010
http://theinfertilebreeder.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
My story of primary infertility. the second time around. Tuesday, October 12, 2010. Babydays are here again! Because we had Waffle Girl at 36 weeks, the wait for my scheduled c-section at 39 weeks (six days ago) was a little nerve-wracking. This pregnancy was not high-risk in any way, but I kept thinking, "Can we get her out yet? I know she's ready! What if something goes wrong and we're too late? Let's just get her out so we'll know she's safe! Okay, so I'm a little scarred by past experiences. Mar '09 ...

the infertile breeder: ticker time
http://theinfertilebreeder.blogspot.com/2010/07/ticker-time.html
My story of primary infertility. the second time around. Sunday, July 25, 2010. Did you notice my new tickers? Yes, I've made a lot of progress on my dissertation and am tentatively scheduled to defend it on August 25th. So far I've written about 92 pages, including nearly 50 charts, tables and figures. Having recently finished the Methods and Results chapters, I still have to write Discussion and Conclusions. This is where the real magic (a.k.a. bullshit) comes in. Hee hee.

Roccie Road: POAS: The Home Wrecker
http://roccieroad.blogspot.com/2010/11/poas-home-wrecker.html
Retired fertility warrior. Desperate to help anyone still in the game. Saturday, November 13, 2010. POAS: The Home Wrecker. I dunno. Don't even read this post. Save yourself. I already got into an argument with my own mother over it. Still mad about it. But the torture continues. I need another box of First Response Early Response. Buy 2, get one free in a single box. A party pack. My beta isn't until Wednesday. May as well be next year. I only think I see a hint of one. Really, why are you still reading?

Roccie Road: Why posts shouldn't sit in draft
http://roccieroad.blogspot.com/2010/09/why-posts-shouldnt-sit-in-draft.html
Retired fertility warrior. Desperate to help anyone still in the game. Wednesday, September 22, 2010. Why posts shouldn't sit in draft. Woo hoo, hoo hoo hoo! I wrote this last post in draft night but it is all null and void. We picked a donor. I got buyer's remorse. I feel back in love with my donor. I started composing my thank you letter to her in my head during my spare moments. She was the great love of my life. Ah but Number Three. I swear. I think she is The One. We are not in control. I get it.
