Laughter, The Best Medicine

Alright, so if you actually read and keep up with this blog, then you already know it's no secret that Tyler and I have had fertility issues. Today I came across a blog that had these posted and I found it quite humorous. If you've never had fertility problems, you may not find these as funny, but after experiencing month after month of heartbreak, you have to find laughter any way you can. After all, laughter is the best medicine, right?

You Know You're Infertile When.....

secretary. It’s like an episode of Cheers, just without the bar and unlimited
alcohol.

3.You get even more excited over positive ovulation tests because you actually get to see two
pink lines.

their ear “I want a baby too.”

pregnant.” “My body is ready for pregnancy.”
