This is my first time visiting this website, and I think it is great. My husband and I have been TTC for 1 1/2 years. Within the last four months we discovered all of our fertility problems and been trying to deal with them. Since no one I know has ever been through something like this, I'm feeling pretty overwhelmed and alone. Good friends are trying to "be there", but they just don't quite get it. We just had our first IUI two weeks ago, and I started my period yesterday morning. Of course everyone I work with kept asking when I had my blood work scheduled, and it was after noon before I could answer w/out breaking down. My husband is as understanding as he can be, but definatley not as much as I need. I love him so much, and since we met four years ago I have been dreaming about our life together. The wedding that was perfect, the house we now have and love, even the dog that has been our first "baby". The biggest hope and dream was our children. Hoping they would have my eyes and their dad's impish smile. Wondering if they would have his blond curls or my dark strands. No where in that dream was all of this emotional turmoil and stress. No tests, ultrasounds, meds, shots or procedures. I think the worst part of it is dealing with all the blissfully pregnant or new moms who have no clue how great they have it. The way they take for granted something that I long for, ache for everyday. I know that I am not alone. All of the other postings on this site comfort me and make me put my own situation into perspective. There are other women out there struggling like me, a lot of them more than me. I'm glad this place is here for all of us to share this burden, take the weight off of our shoulders if just for a second. Thank you. :)
