I’m just really trying to understand

OK, I am 25 weeks pregnant, and I work at an IVF clinic.  So yes, daily, I see women who are struggling with infertility, recurrent losses, failed cycles, and a host of other problems.  I understand that having a pregnant nurse can be hard.  That’s why I never mention it, I always have a smile, [...]

Soooo, the HCG is still running strong in my system.  I was curious [...]

Post-Op

So, yesterday, I started bleeding.  Heavily.  And I passed what was big enough to be something.  The bleeding slowed down, but cramping started.  But when I went see Dr K(one of my favorite MDs  He has a wicked sense of humor just like me, and does wonderful work), they did an ultrasound and everything was [...]

What to write? I’ve been trying to write a post for several days now, and nothing seems to come out.  I am still waiting.  I was hoping (due to the fact that I no longer have insurance) that I would go ahead and miscarry naturally.  But  other than some on and off spotting, nothing is [...]
