Okay, it has been about two weeks since I had my IUI (intrauterine insemination) and I think I’m ready to talk about it, or more specifically blog about it.  Here’s how I will start–I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR THIS.  Thus the purpose for waiting 14 days before blogging.  Now, let me warn you.  This one  [ Read More ]

My doc decided that he would put me on hormones to “launch” me into ovulation, and hopefully help Nick and I with our spawnlessness.  Horray–wait a tick, perhaps I shouldn’t be thrilled with being placed on hormones.  For those of you who do not know me very well, I am a pretty emotional person; one  [ Read More ]

Just a reminder for any readers of the blog: Please read the first two entries.  I’d hate for you to be lost. Back in March/April, Nick and I had the same conversation many married couples have; we discussed whether or not we were ready to start a family.  For those of you who do not  [ Read More ]

Well, if you read or have read Nick’s portion of this blog, he has already let the cat out the bag.  He presented the information a bit more bluntly than I would have been, but oh well.  His blog is funny—give it a read.  I had much more of a production planned, but since he  [ Read More ]
