Hey, friends! I am so sorry for the silence lately — the last few weeks have been a little crazy! We’ve had quite a bit of travel (well, a lot for us), work has been busy, and I haven’t been feeling 100% myself. The good news? I can now say with certainty that my posting…
Hi Friends! Sometimes life feels like a whirlwind, and creativity is the first thing to take a back seat. That’s been me lately—busy workdays, drained energy, even my reading slowed down (and if you know me, that’s huge!). But something’s shifting—I feel my creativity stirring again, and I’m ready to dive back into the things…
Hi Friends! I have some incredibly exciting news to share about our fertility journey and the next steps ahead! We got the results back from our second egg retrieval, and I can hardly believe I’m typing this… both embryos are euploid — which means they’re genetically normal and transferable — and they are BOYS! 💙💙…

Hi Friends, I hope these last couple of weeks have been gentle to you, and I hope you found a way to honor Mother’s Day yesterday—however you spent it. For me, Mother’s Day continues to feel… complicated. The last two years, I’ve been pregnant on Mother’s Day. And yet, yesterday, I woke up with a…
Britt shares the exciting news of three euploid embryos from five, one of which carries a hearing loss gene, leading them to choose not to transfer it. They plan another egg retrieval to increase their chances of having two children. Britt emphasizes faith and gratitude during their fertility journey and seeks connection through shared experiences.
Hi friends, Did you catch The Masters this year? If not, you missed a great one! I’ve only been into golf for about a year now, but understanding the game has made watching tournaments—especially The Masters—so much more enjoyable. Ian has fully embraced the golf bug too. So much so that he built a golf…
Hi Friends! I’m keeping this post sweet and simple – I had my egg retrieval last week, and I’m happy to share that it was a success! The night before, our doctor called to check in and mentioned that my numbers were “textbook.” We ended up retrieving 20 eggs, 19 matured, and 17 were fertilized….
