After the horrific ordeal of cycle 1, I really questioned whether I wanted to go through another round again. I think at this point, I was far beyond desperate; it was hurting too much just thinking about why this was taking so long and the process so painful. I have to admit that before we … Continue reading IVF Cycle #2

IVF
Cycle #1 ***DISCLAIMER - This is a very LONG post*** When you write a blog, you open yourself up to the world - the unknown.
