I had the most disturbing dream last night.
My mother - who was about 10 years younger in the dream at about 45ish - decided she wanted to have another baby. She had her tubal ligation reversed and was actively trying to get pregnant. Calling me and asking about ovulation predictor kits and such. I was, obviously, a little upset about this! I mean it is my turn! The worst part of the dream was that everyone acted like I shouldn't be upset - that I was being mean to Mom by not wanting her to have a baby.
It was so weird. I woke up kind of discombobulated.
I called Mom and she said, "no thanks."

I Am 1 In 6Infertility. No one thinks it will happen to them. In reality, fertility - something we take for granted - is a miraculously coordinated orchestra of hormones and timing. In couples suffering from infertility (IF) a part (or parts) of the orchestra are not playing in key. Just one wrong note makes the seemingly simple task of procreation extremely difficult. This is our journey from IF to baby.Recent Articles

It's the Weekend! Let's all take out our angst!
Bubble Wrap Let's Go Fishing Shoot the Smilies and if you want to really annoy someone, send them this: Hold the Button Have a nice Sunday everyone. P.S. I have gotten rid of my alias (Damona who is the gaul godess of fertility) and just decided to use my name. I was being inconsistent in what I used and I tried to think of the worst thing that could happen if someone reading my blog figured out who I was...? I'm thinking no big deal. So Paige it is.

POAS - Pee On A Stick
as in..."I know I should wait until my beta (blood pregnancy test) on Monday but I might POAS on Sunday night." OR "It has been 2 dpo (days past ovulation); how soon before I can POAS?" POAS refers to HPT (home pregnancy tests) whereby you test your urine for HCG hormone by holding a test stick in your urine stream for 5 seconds, waiting 3 minutes, and then desperately looking for a second pink line. Repeat. Daily. Until AF arrives.
