Infertility
Guest Infertility Blogger: Becky
When we first started to try, I figured we’d fall pregnant in the obvious way just like everyone else did – we’d have sex at the right time and BAM, a baby! Easy, right?! Who imagines that something that seems so natural, so ‘normal’ might not happen? Unless you’ve been close to someone experiencing infertility I don’t think you give it a second thought; after all, no-one seems to talk about it even if they are having problems. I never expected 5 years on to be sat writing a blog about failing ...
Guest Infertility Blogger: Meet Stacy

We dated for about 2-2.5 years and I married him at age 24, two months shy ...

When we started thinking more about starting a family I wanted to make sure I ...

Guest Infertility Blogger: Meet Chelsea and Kristen
I’m really excited about today’s post, I have 2 guest bloggers! Chelsea is a good friend of mine, we met through Instagram and realized we lived pretty close to one another. We text weekly (if not daily) and have met up several times! Kristen has also been a friend on Instagram for years! Why do I have them both guest blogging today? Chelsea had frozen embryos remaining after the birth of her daughter and donated them to Kristen! I asked them both if they would share their stories because ...
