What a year, folks! It's hard to believe that we're ready to kiss 2012 goodbye and ring in the new year in just a week. Even though it hasn't yet been a full year here at this website, it's been an incredible ten months here all the same, and I have each of you to thank for … Read More »

The Infertility Voice™ first started as Editor-in-Chief Keiko Zoll's personal infertility blog, Hannah Wept, Sarah Laughed in 2009, shortly after her diagnosis of premature ovarian failure. Here is the record of her personal journey from infertility to motherhood from 2009 through 2013.
Caution: Bump Ahead
Since some of you are reading these posts in an RSS Reader, I've made the choice to only offer a 400-character teaser of each post in my RSS feed. Personally, truncated post summaries in RSS feeds drive me nuts. That said: I know that some of you reading may still be building … Read More »
Senseless and Silent.
I need to get these thoughts out of my head that have been swirling around since Friday afternoon and on to paper/screen. Friday morning, Larry and I drove down to New Jersey to attend his sister's college graduation. Shortly before 1pm, his iPhone dinged. He has a … Read More »
MIA (Again) Thanks to My Thyroid (Again)
For the record: hypothyroidism BLOWS. A ranty thyroid post ahead. And of course, my half-Japanese* self gets the fancy Hashimoto's variation, where my body slowly eats away at my thyroid, leaving an endocrinological nightmare in its wake. *Being half-Japanese has nothing to … Read More »
My Evolving Identity of Infertility
Growing up as a biracial half-Japanese, half-Caucasian girl with a Japanese first and last name and a "white" middle name, I have long struggled with the concept of identity. I was never Asian enough. I was never white enough. For a long time, I felt these two halves of … Read More »
Perfect Moment Monday: Wub, Wub, Wub.
I'm a week late for Lori's Perfect Moment Monday, but her list is still active and hey, it's a Monday, so I guess I'm still in the clear. I realize my post title sounds like I'm listening to dubsteb but it refers to something entirely different. Last Monday, Larry and I got to … Read More »
Thankful, Grateful, Abundant.
I am thankful for my infertility. I'll let that sink in for a moment. It's true: I am both grateful and thankful for my infertility. Not exactly something you'd expect to hear just two days before Thanksgiving, but there it is. For all the pain, the mental and physical … Read More »
Substantially Better, Thank You Very Much
Folks have been asking me all week: "How are you?" To which I've replied, "Substantially better, thank you very much" just about every time. I finally broke down and called my OB practice to see if they could get me in before the Monday after Thanksgiving. My nausea was … Read More »
I’m Reading: My Life Map
A few weeks ago, I received a copy of Kate and David Marshall's highly engaging and interactive workbook, My Life Map: A Journal to Help You Shape Your Future. I've had some time to read and review it and I have to say, as the days grow darker much earlier, with this strange … Read More »
Guilty Nausea
You know you've hit a new low when you're blogging on your phone from the floor of your bathroom, curled up in a fetal position, head resting on a pile of (dirty?) towels: So, I was really hoping to avoid any "let's bitch about pregnancy symptoms" posts but, that's going … Read More »
