I took an hour-long work at the Pope John with Coworker Marti Maraschino. It was a good time, though she probably heard more than she ever wanted to about our fertility process. HA. Dudes seriously, don't get me started because I /will/ talk for an hour. All it takes is a smidgen of interest (or even feigned interest). I am unstoppable ( Read more... )

EAT MORE BLUEBERRIES! I am envisioning you blowing up like Violet from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory!

Freeze the blueberries that way this winter when you REALLY want them you can thaw them and have yummy berries. Or you can use them to ice your hand after you hit the idiot neighbor. :-)

BTW I'm the same way as you about fertility treatments. I've decided it's not a dirty little secret so I tell everyone. My friends are going to start ducking and running soon.

I think I will freeze one of the pints of blueberries so I don't have to worry about them going bad. (I hate wasting produce.) But I'm almost done the first pint and I'm sure I can do major damage on the second through the weekend. Maybe I'll make blueberry pancakes! :)

And heck, it's OBVIOUS that we're needing to use AI to get knocked up, since last time I checked we're both girls. So I think people automatically assume all kinds of crazy things about how we're going to do it (one of my coworkers assumed that we would have to go straight to IVF!) and I like to educate.

Besides, I'm so nerdy and I think it's COOL!

Mmmm blueberry pancakes.. How far away do you live :-)

I think the thing that surprises me is how many different ways an RE can help a couple/person. You only hear about the folks having IVF and 6 kids at a time. You rarely hear about all the other options and how rare that many multiples are. I also educate as often as I can.

Excellent. Educating is cool.

Come visit and I will make you blueberry pancakes.

Mmm...wouldn't it be super yummy to put blueberries IN the lemonade?! Like you could even freeze them into magical little blueberry icecubes. Yum.
