It's A Small World, Full Of Support

In the short time that we've been dealing with our fertility issues two things have become clear to us:
  • It is a very small world: So many people in our circle have gone through similar issues, or know people who have. There is so much power in talking to others about shared experiences, and most importantly laughing about it all. Every conversation or story of the process makes us grow stronger and makes the experience feel more normal. 
  • There is support everywhere: Our hearts are filled with gratitude and awe at just how much love and support is out there. Our tears and heartache are becoming more and more related to pride, happiness, and gratitude. We know now that when we say we will get through this together, the we includes our medical team, family, and friends.
The next steps in the process:
  • Second SA and urine analysis on May 1st. Prepared for a zero but hopefully for some bannermen.
  • Hormone blood test next week
  • Urologist appointment May 20th. This will be a big day as we'll get the results of the hormone and genetics tests, and get a sense of our plans moving forward.
