One year ago today, I created this blog. I had been hanging around the boards for a while, and reading a few blogs (mostly Nancy's), and decided that it would be nice to create a blog so I can track my journey through this infertility valley.
I read back through some of my original posts. I was so naive, thinking that my first IVF would be a success. Oh how little did I know back then. A year later and three IVF attempts under my belt, and we're still not holding the brass ring. I've not given up hope, but I am also realistic in knowing our chances of success. I also still trust God to provide for us, which He is.
My sister sent me this birthday calculator so I thought I'd share with you what is says about my blog's birthdate. You can, of course, ignore what is says about when it was conceived.
Happy Birthday!
