Infertility: The Starting Line (IUI Treatment One)
So it begins, the official start of our first IUI cycle… I couldn’t sleep last night, and I woke up this morning before my alarm went off. I guess there was just too much on my mind. So many things were going on in my head, but most importantly the realization that this is the…
Infertility: We Have A Date!
Finally, so the time has come. We are starting our first IUI cycle this weekend. I am both scared and excited. Scared mostly because I have no idea what to expect. I have done some research online but every persons experience is different. Excited, well because I have only been waiting my entire life (well…
Life: Favorite Podcasts
I newly discovered Podcasts… I mean I have always known about them but never really listened to any. I am more of a visual person, so I guess that maybe why I didn’t indulge, but oh my gosh! What was I missing? Podcasts are a great way to pass time, are easy to listen to…
Infertility: Second Guessing Our Decision
To HSG or not to HSG that is the question… Maybe too much time has passed since that horrible experience for me to be thinking rationally (read about that here: Infertility: HSG Test), but I am seriously considering going through with an HSG test again.

Infertility: Male Testing and How I Support my Wife
We both made appointments to see our PCP individually… For me, the most important thing was that everything… down there was working 100%. If not, I would need to be positive about it as I have always stressed to myself and Angie that a positive attitude is one of the best ways to get through…
Infertility: First Appointment with the Infertility Specialist
The call came quickly and before we knew it we were scheduling our first appointment with the Infertility Specialist. Jon and I requested the afternoon off to go to the appointment as the Doctor is in Downey, a bit of a distance from us, especially during the afternoon rush hour traffic. We made the most…
Infertility: Ultrasound and the Next Step
We both made appointments to see our PCP individually… For me, it was the general questions, how long have you been trying? what are your periods like? are they regular? so you have unusual facial hair growth on your chin? She was fishing for signs of PCOS, which I hadn’t ruled out myself. I exhibited…
