My story, 2006-2008
Sit back, put your feet up, and grab a bag of popcorn. It’s going to be a long one.

-noun The quality of mind or spirit that enables a person to face difficulty, danger, pain, etc., without fear; bravery.
It is from this day on that I read the above definition, and live my journey with this definition in mind. As with most women who experience infertility, a range of emotions are constantly in my mind…embarrassment, shame, anger, fear, shyness. The last thing I thought I would ever choose to do is share my journey on a blog over the internet, but I am sick and tired of feeling everything above. I am tired of feeling like I have to hide what I am going through out of fear of judgment, or out of someone thinking less of me. Infertility is very real. Infertility is common. It is so common, that recently, when I decided to be brave and share my story with two friends, I found out they are also dealing with irregular cycles and what seems to be the start of their own road. Their stories are not mine to tell, but I do know what is, and these are my own stories to tell.
