Split Persona!

Ok! So I feel like I need to own up to myself and stop being embarrassed of this part of myself

It's silly because I feel like i should help others who may be struggling with infertility

So friends (all one of you who may/may not read this)

I'm doing the whole "merging blogs" thing for now

Hopefully I can stay true to all of myself in my other blog.

Here's the address: the DK Crew

See you on the Flip side!

Oh taxes...

Did you know that the following things are tax deductible?

Pregnancy tests

Birth Control

Fertility Enhancement! (YES)

Unfortunately the following is NOT tax decuctible:

Costs of Adoption

Even worse, the following IS tax decuctible:

Costs of Abortion

Something is wrong with this picture.

We should alert lawmakers.

Hopefully in the future, I will be writing a blog post and those two will be switched!

Oh taxes...

I couldn't have said it better myself...

This really spoke to my heart...

Thank You!

My least favorite word...

Relax

I hate it.

I hate how people have used it against me.

But they think they're doing me a favor.

While trying to conceive, we would always hear,

"You just have to relax and it will happen."

Then while I was pregnant,

"You need to relax or you're going to hurt your baby with stress."

Then while I was in labor,

"You need to relax so it won't hurt." (Pfft!)

Then while I was learning how to nurse,

"You should relax so the milk will come in to feed your baby."

Then when people were being intrusive,

"You need to relax because you're being overprotective."

And now that things have settled down a little bit,

"You really need to relax so people don't think that you're a crazy mom."

I hate that word.

Really

Really

hate that word.

*Just so you know, none of these statements came from my doctor*

And contrary to the picture that this paints, I'm not a stress case.

I'm actually quite fun!

And I like boardgames.

and long walks on the beach ;)
