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
and I'm the only one
who misses them."

OUCH .. your poor feet!
Wow! Those are some impressive cankles you've got there. V looks very content on her mommy's chest. Wow. Mommy... who would have thought that a year ago?
You make it all seem so wonderful! I hope you find time to write the birth story soon.
Oh you and ginny look adorable together!!!
Oh P, I'm so sorry you're having such a hard time of it! I had been feeling sorry for myself and I haven't had to deal with infected nipples and have had tons of help from my mom, so I can't even imagine how exhausted you must be. Sometimes I think the universe gives us SAIF moms an extra does of difficult for our hubris. Sort of like "so you wanted a baby huh? Well here it is, now take that!"
I am eagerly waiting for your birth story, but can see why you have no time to write it. Hoping things start to get a bit easier for you..
