SCREW YOU, STORK. TTW: Trying To Work. March 5, 2015. March 5, 2015. I’m starting to think that the hardest thing I’ve done in my 12-year advertising career has been to successfully conceal my reproductive issues. Then came a newer, calmer, 8-to-5 job offer, and I seized it. But with that change came the challenges of starting fresh, of needing to prove my worth, and of waiting the appropriate amount of time before pissing anybody off. But how or where would I even start? Unreliable or overly emotional&#...

https://screwyoustork.com/2015/03/01/impatience-is-a-virtue
SCREW YOU, STORK. Impatience is a virtue. March 1, 2015. Impatience. It’s an ugly trait that has a somewhat pretty side too. My entire life, I’ve suffered from an acute case of Chronic Impatientitis. Growing up, I was a very unfortunate combination of being both impatient and a late bloomer. Because of this, there was one thing I heard over and over again from my mom. Your day will come. When every single person in my junior high class got their periods and I was still stuck in scrawny training bra land.

SCREW YOU, STORK. March 19, 2015. March 19, 2015. My husband and I met on eHarmony. Which means before we could even be introduced to the virtual best-photos-we’ve-ever-taken versions of each other, we each had to answer hundreds of what-if questions about ourselves. Questions like, What if your partner made less money than you? What if your partner’s mother didn’t like you? What if your partner became penniless, homeless, armless and legless? And What’s your idea of the perfect weekend? It’s an unspoken...

On Hope in Difficult Times - The Modern Belly
http://themodernbelly.com/fertility/2015/03/hope-infertility
On Hope in Difficult Times - The Modern Belly. On Hope and Infertility. On Hope and Infertility. By The Modern Belly. March 22, 2015. Let me tell you something, my friend. Hope is a dangerous thing. It got me thinking, why is it that we hope? Even when it seems to go against our common sense. Even when it seems ‘healthier’ for us not to. Even when we resist. Why should I subject myself to injections, blood tests, multiple doctors’ appointments? I started with a quote from Shawshank Redemption. The link t...

SCREW YOU, STORK. The Dragon Lady wants me to try yoga. March 26, 2015. March 26, 2015. To me, exercise has never been exercise unless it ends with my near lifeless body laying in a collapsed lump on the ground in grave danger of drowning in the gallons of sweat pouring off of itself. So, basically, I’m a long distance runner. But after my first appointment with the Dragon Lady. I knew my running days were behind me, at least while we were trying to get pregnant. Because, as the Dragon Lady says,. But wh...
