Giving Infertility a Voice


Yet again it has been a while since I have updated. Mostly because things have not gone as we had planned the last couple months and also because school is a big priority right now. I am sorry that it has taken so long for an update and that this will not be much of one. I wanted to share a part of Redbook magazine’s No Shame Campaign, call The Truth About Trying: Infertility Stories from Celebrities and Women Like You. It provides a place for women and men to openly talk about infertility and the way it affects their lives. If you have followed my story you know some of the ways this happens, but we are some of the “lucky ones”. We found out early, we have great insurance that covers some procedures, and family and friends that have supported us through this journey. Please take a few minutes to listen to a couple of stories from these women that have struggled with infertility.
            Our story is not yet over and I should have an update in a couple weeks to let you all know what we should be expecting in the future. And remember that one in eight couples struggle with infertility so someone you know is most likely suffering from this disease. Please do your part by listening to the voice infertility is still trying to find.
