So we are trying to have a baby... and this is my story.
I am Kate. I live in a major metropolitan in North America. I am a healthy and happy professional in the city, my marriage is about 3 years old and my husband and I are still madly in love with each other.
After a few years of unprotected Russian-roulette-if-it-happens-it-happens careless fun times, followed by a few month of Let's-do-it-i'm-ovulating kind of sex, we found ourselves scratching our heads wondering if the second pink line is a mythical phenomena.
A curious and resourceful personality of mine had me do extensive research on fertility, as I started to feel the first pangs of anxiety about our abilities to produce a genetically related warm bundle-of-joy. My inner therapist picked up on the emotional toll the process of slowly losing a part of your womanhood can take. So I started this blog.
My intention for this blog is to be a thought repository, where I dump all my worry and fears to get it out of my head. I'm letting this be a sounding board for myself. i hope it's relatable and helps someone somehow. Even if it doesn't, I know it will help me through this.
This is the beginning and I hope the ride is short.
