We pick up from where we left off here. Dear Judah, While your father was out meeting with clients in Shanghai, marveling at this new international experience, I was running around a bit like a madwoman. The Wednesday before you were born was an extremely busy day. I … Read More »
Judah’s Birth Story: Part 1
Judah is already four months old! I can't believe how incredibly fast the time has gone. Our house is full of smiles and coos and the occasional rolling over from tummy to back. We can add rice cereal to that list of achievements too; at his four month checkup yesterday, his … Read More »
Existential and Exhausted
Oh hai. If The Infertility Voice has felt a bit off kilter lately, you'd be correct. Things are off kilter here. Life has been hectic. (Isn't it always? I feel like that's my default excuse but in truth, my life is wicked busy right now.) I'm resolved. Our son is a … Read More »
Having Some Things, Some of the Time
It's kind of like "having it all." As a WAMH, I've been told that I'm living the dream: I work at home, I take care of my child - no need for daycare. No need to pump during lunch breaks because I can just pick up Judah from his lounger or swing and feed him on-demand (and boy … Read More »

The Long Road Home
It's official: Judah is OUT of the NICU! Things moved *very* quickly in the last two weeks, once he was allowed to resume oral feedings. He got a mix of boob and bottle, as much as my schedule could allow and soon he graduated from one oral feeding daily to eight feeds by … Read More »
The Escape & Progress Made
Another pumping session, another post from my phone. It's been almost 48 hours since I was at the hospital. I left Friday night, renting a car to drive up to Salem with the intention of finishing Judah's nursery so it would be done and ready by the time we came home (which is … Read More »
