About
I was a nervous wreck about getting and staying pregnant, after being diagnosed with with (male factor) infertility and probable recurrent miscarriage (high ANA and one mutated MTHFR gene).
The reality was more straight-forward: I got pregnant as soon as we threw away the Astroglide, miscarried at nine weeks on November 2, 2004 and got pregnant again the following February. I worried the whole time, but a perfect, healthy baby boy, called Gatito here, arrived on November 2, 2005.
Now I write mostly about Gatito and being a working mom and thinking about going for #2 and occasionally about the cats.
Feb 2008: Now with more miscarriage! This time ectopic!

Who let you into my brain? And while you are there, can you tell me what I did with my PIN for my student loans? Anyway, I have enjoyed reading your blog. You remind me a lot of the way I think…slightly paranoid, definitely skewed. (I totally would have POAS in some random bathroom after pregnancy symptoms that couldn’t possibly have been real. Who wouldn’t??)Yes, those are good things, depsite what our loved ones might say when we are at our most frustrating.
I’ll be 37 in June with a daughter who will be 2 that same month and am also TTC #2. My particular recent m/c flavor is chemical pregnancy. Just starting my RE journey and not looking forward to it.
Good luck to you. I’ll be tracking your progress. But not in a stalker-ish way, of course.
