Me vs. You: Judging a friend going through Infertility
http://missandrae.blogspot.com/2010/11/judging-friend-going-through.html
Saturday, November 20, 2010. Judging a friend going through Infertility. His post has been edited to add Melissa's response. Part of my problem with helping her, though, is that they aren't really doing anything about the problem. My friend says she really wants a kid but doesn't want to "put the money where her mouth is". They say they don't have money to spend on doctors or adoption, but then they go off and travel around the world, take vacations, go to concerts and other events, etc. You need to cut ...

Roccie Road: Have uterus; need eggs
http://roccieroad.blogspot.com/2010/09/have-uterus-need-eggs.html
Retired fertility warrior. Desperate to help anyone still in the game. Saturday, September 11, 2010. Have uterus; need eggs. We had our phone consult with CCRM and Dr. G. this week. No shit show to report. IF YOU READ ANYTHING READ THIS:. Dr G told me the miscarriage rate is not 40% but 25-30%. With my own eggs. I sure wish I had some clarification here. Online searches tell me 40%. Is this a reflection on the CCRM attitude? Evaluation to determine our next steps. Antral follicle count 10-11). This is a ...

Roccie Road: Tie a knot and hang on.
http://roccieroad.blogspot.com/2010/08/tie-knot-and-hang-on.html
Retired fertility warrior. Desperate to help anyone still in the game. Saturday, August 14, 2010. Tie a knot and hang on. I feel like that kitten swinging on a rope. The poster very likely hung from my bedroom wall back when I was young (and more fertile). The IVF retrieval was canceled due to poor response. We were not advised to consider the option to retrieve the single egg. My progesterone was on the rise and waiting on the other egg wasn't going to work. The tide started to change on me. I wasn'...

Roccie Road: But I actually AM holier than thou
http://roccieroad.blogspot.com/2012/03/but-i-actually-am-holier-than-thou.html
Retired fertility warrior. Desperate to help anyone still in the game. Wednesday, March 28, 2012. But I actually AM holier than thou. Nobody gets my goat like those Catholics. You know I am a Catholic, right? I suppose I take some liberties with the word. I have said before I consider myself a Catholic, but I am certain there are Catholics out there who would beg to differ - they would say I have no right to call myself a Catholic. I spent many years outside the Catholic Church. Later as an adult I f...

Roccie Road: Youth is wasted on the young
http://roccieroad.blogspot.com/2010/09/youth-is-wasted-on-young.html
Retired fertility warrior. Desperate to help anyone still in the game. Sunday, September 19, 2010. Youth is wasted on the young. Exactly when the fuck did I get so old that this makes sense to me? I had a brilliant. Weekend. I went into the city to see my lover, Dave Matthews. Yes, I know saying you like Dave is like saying you like sunshine, summer or vacation: not incredibly complex. But for me, the love goes deep. And dirty. if he would only take me up on it. I saw darling, DARLING. I feel having deal...

Roccie Road: My decision
http://roccieroad.blogspot.com/2010/08/my-decision.html
Retired fertility warrior. Desperate to help anyone still in the game. Saturday, August 21, 2010. I hope it makes sense to move the thoughts from my head to paper. I fear much will get lost in translation. I will do my best to capture it. I want to be able to refer back to it and reset myself if needed. I feel positive. I get it now. The Shit Show has concluded. I have been thinking about donor eggs since. Our first IVF failure. Would they let us go ahead and try again? What number is enough? Short of a ...

Im sure you are thinking to yourself a number of things that include. 1 WTF was that? 2 Am I seeing what I think I am seeing? 3 Is this a dream? 4 Am I high? 5 Does anyone else see what I just saw? 6 Should I scream? 7 Is this even possible? 8 Never in my entire life did I ever think I would ever see THIS. So tha...
