IVF - Paying it Forward

Ask me how many times I was told "You should write a book" by those who know of our IVF journey. My own husband was insistent. This came mostly from those in my life who are familiar with my ability to put word on paper, so I took it more as a compliment than anything. But I did have a strong need to "give back" in some way. If there is possibly anything better thing than having a child, it's having a child after you feared you never would. In some cases, for years. The IVF path in an enormously painful and stressful one. Fear and hope battle against each other every second of every day and it's a constant effort to remain sane. So I built a website(blog) for first time IVF patients. I remember what it was like to start the IVF process and how incredibly naive, clueless and scared I was. There were so many things I didn't know and wish I had. I worked many hours into the night on this one....hoping it would help someone the way I wish I had been helped. It is a simple resource that is not sponsored by a fertility clinic or medical company. Please forward it onto anyone you know who is starting out or is thinking about IVF, and if you have a chance to take a look, please feel free to give me feedback of any kind, especially if you feel something should be added or changed. (Thanks to Jen and husband K who helped to make it more visible on the net. It worked!)
