Relaxing Doesn't Make Babies

Fast Shipping and Family Catch-Up

April 16, 2007 — 12:29 am

Earlier today I placed my order for some cloth menstrual pads through Cottontail Baby. I just got an email from Stamps.com saying that my order has been shipped. :shock: Wow! Maybe they will get here in time for this cycle. That would be nice!

Tonight we went out to see a band play… a small, new, local band that one of Den’s brothers is in. While we were there the brother’s girlfriend (who is almost certainly going to become my SIL one day) came over to say hi to me. She says, all hopeful-looking, “Are you pregnant??” Then asked how things were going with our treatment when I gave a negative. Last time I saw her was months ago, and I had told her about our troubles and our plan at that time to do injectibles next. She had told me that her sister was going through the same thing, and doing injectibles too. So today she tells me that her sister did get pregnant during treatment, her second injectibles cycle. I actually felt really good to hear that. It’s a relief to hear of another infertile getting lucky.

We weren’t able to talk too long over the loud music, but it was nice for that brief moment to have someone basically say, I know what you’re going through, and it sucks. I’m not going to debate with you or give you advice. I wish the best for you, and know it will work out in the end.

    How nice that your future SIL “gets it.” I am glad you had a good time!
