This is getting old. My IVF didn’t work. A little over 2 weeks ago I went in for my first ultrasound scan at 7 wks 2 dys with high hopes. I didn’t have any bleeding or cramps. I felt high as a kite. I just knew everything was going as planned. I get to the [...]

I was required to get my MMR vaccinations for school. But at the time, I was pregnant and my doctor told me I cannot get that vaccination while I was pregnant, so she wrote a note for me to give to the appropriate people at my school, so I’d be excused from having to take [...]
Would You Believe Another UTI?
Posted in Health on Mar 7th, 2007
Would you believe it? I have another UTI. This friggin’ sucks!! I’ll admit, I recently have been intimate with my husband.

For the most part, the nurses were really nice and helpful. However they were slow at times. Not that I was expecting some [...]
