an open and honest struggle with infertility (x2) and IVF (x4) with ICSI plus random thoughts on dogs, cancer, ppd, cloth diapers, plagiocephaly, having a bi-racial child, being an older mom, life back in fab new york city, and learning how to be positive.

A loved one is not gone
until they are forgotten.
And to live in the hearts
of those left behind
is to live forever.

that I am mourning children
that do not exist

Congratulations on the 2nd trimester, it is quite a milestone.
Yea, I see what you mean about the video. Beautiful and I am sure sad for you at the same time.
Go second trimester! Yay!
YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!! for second trimester!!!! that is soooo wonderfullllll!!!!
Congratulations. I started reading your blog recently when I friend of mine suggested it. She is also married to a doctor who is going through residency right now & finds a lot of comfort through you I think. Anyway, I tagged you for a meme on my blog, Taking Chances.
Congratulations on second trimester.
Just want to remind you that I can tell how much you loved Chili, and even though I don't know you in person, you gave that dog an AMAZING life. He was loved and thats all a dog wants.
He is watching over you and your little one.
Hugs.
Shit. I cried so hard watching this, the cat on my lap actually loooked up at me like WTF? I'm such a sap. I kept glancing over at the picture of Chili on the right.
My pupsters is getting very old. His breed has a life expectency of about 10-12 years. With him being actually larger than the breed standard, his is on the lower end. He'll be 10 in May. I'm noticing him slowing down a lot lately.
I couldn't help but wonder if we'll ever have cute videos and/or pictures of our baby & my pup.
it's actually insane how much I'm STILL sitting here bawling.
Anyway.. it was very touching. Thanks for sharing.
And welcome to the 2nd trimester. Scooch over and make room for me.

I am SO HAPPY for you making it into the 2nd tri!!!
I can't believe this is happening, has it sunk in yet?
Btw, who was your RE at cornell? A friend of mine wants a referral, and I thought of you.
Thanks!
