While I have received compensation for this post from Fertility Planit, all opinions are my own. My journey through infertility has been a wandering one, a journey that hasn’t always been easy. But, in many ways, being diagnosed with premature ovarian failure before we had … Read More »
Why I Go to the RESOLVE New England Annual Infertility & Adoption Conference
In 2009, after I had been dealt quite the blow with my premature ovarian failure diagnosis, Larry and I were left with lots of questions and few answers. We were in luck (as lucky as you can be with infertility) when I found out about the RESOLVE New England Annual Fertility … Read More »
“Remember Me” and the Days of Awe
For Jews around the globe, including myself, we exist now in a perilous time of year known as Yamim Noraim - the Days of Awe. The ten days in between the start of Rosh HaShanah, the Jewish New Year, and the end of Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement, constitute the holiest … Read More »
The Letter the Clinic Sent Us
This is that part about infertility - parenting afterward or otherwise - that you don't hear so much about. We have enclosed this letter as a reminder that you currently have embryos frozen and stored... It is our hope that you will choose to use these frozen embryos in the … Read More »
Resolve to Know More About The IVF Option

It's officially Team Zoll #3 and #3 only. Our ultrasound was this morning and we got to see our very healthy singleton. After building myself over twins for the last few weeks, it was actually a relief to find out we're only having one baby. Whoa. That looks weird and feels so … Read More »
Houston, We Have a 3rd Beta and an Ultrasound Date!
Just a very quicky post to update the beta trajectory. Had my third beta yesterday morning. Funny story: I got up super early, as the lab at my clinic is only open 6:30-8:15am every morning. I get there and it was literally standing room only. I've never seen so many people in … Read More »
The Goop. Oh My G-d: the GOOP.
Gentlemen who have come to this post: you should probably leave. Ladies with weak stomachs: this is your last warning, too. Bail before you get entirely too much info about my vagina. So, I thought I was in happy Crinone town, like "Look at me! I've avoided the dreaded goop … Read More »
I’m All Shook Up
There was a 4.0 earthquake in southern Maine last night and I felt it in my house. It was kind of hard to miss, because my entire house was shaking. At first, I thought it was a truck coming down our very narrow, one-way street. Sometimes, when something as small as a UPS … Read More »
