HELLO! MY NAME IS ZAIRA AND I AM 16 YEARS OLD, AS SOON AS YESTERDAY I READ THE ARTICULE PUBLISHED ON YOU AND JULIE AND THE MAGAZINE SELECTIONS OF READER `S DIGEST “UNITED IN NETWORK” I REALLY WAS HAPPY ABOUT YOU AND ABOUT JULIE TRUTH ME VERY AMAZING THE FORCE AND THE ANGER THAT YOU HAVE. CONGRATULATIONS SORRY MY ENGLISH ISNT VERY CLEAR I AM MEXICAN AND IM LEARNING INGLISH
I am glad that I stumbled upon your blog. Your candour is refreshing.
We have been trying to conceive for four years. Tomorrow I am scheduled for a retrieval. My head is in a very weird space right now. I feel like a hobbit holed up in my house, avoiding everyone and everything.
I feel guilty for wanting to go to the cottage and party this weekend. I feel as though my husband has had enough of my tempermental mood swings. I feel as though I am neglecting every other aspect of my life. I dread the thought that this is all for naught.
I was angry with one of my dearest gals this weekend when she tipsily suggested that she just would have a baby for me. Should I be grateful?
"Oh geez thanks Sarah aka (Mother Earth), you are so wonderfully womanly and fertile. It's is so nice of you to offer your womb to your Endo-filled, barren, sexless friend. Kudos."
I have never had to contend with so many frigging warped and uncomfortable situations as I have of late - and I am not the type to be easily humiliated! I detest exclamation points!!!
Wow it seems like you just got them on. Not to you I'm sure, to you it probably feels like forever. I remeber the day I had mine taken off... it felt so odd.. like my lips didnt touch my teeth or something.
Share some G&D pics with us as soon as you get them off!!
Re: the poll, we wash new clothes before wearing, because most of my family have sensitive skin, and we need to get the store chemicals off with a safe detergent. The clothes are softer and smell better after washing.
It sounds both bitter sweet - sweet because you'll have nice straight teeth and no annoying braces in your mouth, bitter cos no doubt you'll be nagged for blow jobs for a while. -
Been here very often over the past few months and always have a great time. We have LOTS in common - LOVE wine, used to love more than wine, 37 yrs old, married to men 4 yrs younger, have 2 yr old twins, live-in nanny, born raised and live in the RSA, 3 degrees, good to great job, probably addicted to internet, BUT I've never had to deal with infertility.
Actually just wanted to say you're REALLY G & D and there are lots of us out there!
Also noted we dress our daughters in pink/pastels and sons in blue/brights. Why would sensible educated G & D mothers in the 21st centry still do this?
that was really fast!
When I had braces it took forever!

Thought of you and thought of this book (link address below). One of my favorite children's books. Here's wishing you a million dollar smile.

p.s. Never knew of Noddy. Looked at the site and thought it was cute.
p.p.s. Just had to mention some of what you may have escaped as an adult wearing braces.
- Brace Face
- Tin Grin
- I have a one track mind and would choo-choo with you any time.
Just wanted you to have the full experience.

what happened to that weird pink tube? Now that was freaky.

If only the ticker creators knew what their product was being used to track. Shock! Horror! Do not taint the Baby-dusting power of the ticker...
