Day one. Not to be confused with cycle day one. It's actually cycle day 16, but who's keeping track? This is blog day one, a blog I'm starting with the intention of chronicling my personal experience with infertility. My husband isn't super keen on the idea so we will remain anonymous, referred to only as Mr. and Mrs. B, thirty-somethings, otherwise healthy, trying desperately to have a baby.
As of today we are 35 months into our "journey" (I really hate it when it's referred to as a journey). It feels more like a battle. There are small victories along the way but each month is a fight. And to date each and every one of the 35 months has ended in defeat.
I should stop right here and explain that I do not intend for this to be an online pity party. One of the reasons I've decided to share our experience is because despite the sadness and struggles there are a lot of moments that are hysterically funny and others that have warmed my heart and created new appreciation and love between my husband and me. I intend to share the good the bad and the funny. I hope to gain peace through my writing and perhaps clarity in the decisions we make going forward.
I make no promises as to how often I'll post and I'm not sure my writings will be organized or well edited, but I'm excited to be starting this blog.
Chat soon, Mrs. B
