I'm just your typical pissed off 30-something who couldn't seem to get (or at least stay) pregnant, despite the fact I was healthy, financially stable and emotionally ready.
I started this blog at the end of 2010 as a way to get out my anger and frustrations and what I discovered was an entire community of strong, brave and beautiful women going through the same thing. It saved me.
Then one day, just a week before our first visit at the fertility clinic, we got a surprise BFP and everything changed.
We welcomed our beautiful baby girl into the world on December 11, 2011 and now, I'm just trying to navigate my way through the adventure that is motherhood.
