For those of you that knew me a few years ago...I'm sure this is a big surprise. I was one of those people that was SURE I didn't want to have any kids. Really sure....

Or so I thought...I guess life just started happening. I started not having so many deadlines and finish lines around the corner (undergrad, vet school, internship, get a job, move, etc...) and life just started slowing down and falling into place.

Then I reached a point where the days were turning into weeks, the weeks into months and I thought to myself, "Is this it? This is it for the next 50 years?" And so I suppose the natural sequence of events found their way to me....a little late in life but now I'm embracing the path towards pregnancy...

....even though it has not been embracing me.
Here's my journey.

Thanks for all the support!

Just a quick thank you to all of you that have reached out and offered support, empathy and suggestions.  It's amazing (and frankly a bit daunting) to know how many friends out there I know that are going through this similar situation.  It's nice to be able to recognize other people that know what I am experiencing.  I'm happy to report too, that almost ALL the friends that were going through this have had a child or are now pregnant!  Yay!


It's very interesting to learn of all the different ways that work for everyone.  Hopefully one day, mine will be but another statistic of "what I had to go through to get pregnant" :-)  A special shout out goes to one of my vet school classmates who has gone through a lot (has a beautiful baby boy now!) and I think, will be able to help me out immensely!  Thanks K!

Going in for my first acupuncture consult and session this evening, also trying to get my hysterosalpingogram scheduled however it's not looking good for scheduling this month.  I have a feeling this month is going to be acupuncture a la natural...certainly takes away a lot of the stress...if only the financial aspect could go away too :-)
