  • No baby for us

    Wednesday, September 17, 2008 | A Sad story

    I got the call that our 4th IVF cycle was a failure. I am absolutely crushed right now. I can't figure out why they keep putting back good embryos and they never implant. I am heart broken and scared of what all of this means. My fear is making me angry. THIS IS JUST NOT FAIR!!! I deserve to be a Mommy. I deserve to feel a child growing inside me, to raise them and teach them all I can. ...

  • BIG FAT STUPID NEGATIVE!!!

    Thursday, March 27, 2008 | A Painful story

     We did everything right that we could think of. DF worked so hard to get his counts up, I stopped most of my meds as hard as it was, I went on bed rest for five days, we talked to the embryos all the time, we prayed and prayed. I don't know what else we could of done different. This is just so unfair. I am so hurt and angry right now.

  • Tired of being strong!

    Monday, December 1, 2008 | A Sad story

    I can't fucking take much more! I am so tired of asking God for strength to get through things. I always get it but it is not what I want the most. I want a child! I want a family! I have not gotten that yet I always get the strength to get through all the painful shit in my life. I have survived enough. Battled through enough. Hurt enough.
    My BF called me Saturday. We talked for over a half ...

    Monday, August 31, 2009 | A Sad story

    Our son alex was born yesterday stillborn. The doctor said that there was nothing that josh or i could have done to prevent it from happening. that it just happened. it was just nature's way of saying that something was wrong with the baby.
    The doctor gave me some scripts for meds. He kept me in the hospital for a while to keep an eye on me, but said that since i was handling it so well that ...

  • Having a hard time

    Thursday, October 30, 2008 | A Sad story

    I have been having a hard time lately with the baby/child thing. I think the holidays are making it worse. Not to mention half my friends and women I work closely with are pregnant. I am really feeling left out and sad. I usually hold my head high and truck on through but lately it is not so easy.
    Someone just walked in with their 15 month old dressed up and he looks so cute. My BF and another fr...
