The InVitro Experience Part #2
To understand this article, read this article first. I ended with the line ” Retrieval Day…To be continued 21 January 2019.” I miscarried that night and was rushed to the ER where they confirmed I had miscarried. Needless to say, I was too disheartened at the time to write the article. Stage #3a – Retrieval […]
IVF Update – Day 10 AET
Day 10 AET (After Embryo Transfer) Ever feel like you’ve beaten a topic to death? That’s how undergoing IVF feels.

The InVitro Experience Part #1

I’ll launch this article on my conclusions then walk you through the process if you’re interested. I was most surprised about…having to give myself my own shots. I was most […]
Brain to Books? Coming or Going
Posting 21 January 2019…
Demonic Coffee Pot that screams like a banshee
I recently discovered (like…yesterday) that I LOVE writing reviews. My funny bone comes out when I write reviews. Here is an article I wrote from 2013. My coffee pot broke…BEFORE I had my coffee…and I immediately sat down and wrote a review on it in retaliation. Read the original review. I bought this model in […]
