Tips for Surviving the Two-Week Wait
Guest Post by Jessica Burgess When you are trying to conceive, the two-week wait between ovulation and menstruation can seem like forever. Especially if conception is taking longer than you expected, waiting can be mentally taxing and emotionally draining. You can't change … Read More »
Unresolved But In Transition
First and foremost, I need to say a huge HELLO! to all of you. I realize I've been MIA here at The Infertility Voice website as of late and when I got a comment on an old post today wondering where I'd went, I knew it was time to come back to this space. So firstly, me, Larry and … 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 »
The First Ultrasound
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 »

I have been writing this post, over and over and over, trying best to figure out just how I was going to phrase my words to you today. There's so much I want to say, so I imagine this will be a wordy post. I figured the best way to get through it all was to break it down into … Read More »
12dp3dt: Beta Day
It's beta day. I left the house at 6am, the night receding, the crescent moon like a sleepy eye waking from a dream. All summer, I'd been searching the night skies for Orion, not realizing he's an autumnal constellation. As I walked to my car, I looked up and there he was: … Read More »
11dp3dt: Pulling in the Oars
A Wise Woman once told me: sometimes, you have to pull in your oars and let the river take you where it wants to go. You have to let go of that control and instead be carried by - and ultimately, trust - the Universe. There is no amount of wishing, praying, begging or … Read More »
