Natural Cycles

Disclaimer: This post contains a lot of information about fertility and a woman’s cycle…not for the squeamish! Haha! It’s been like more than six months since I started fertility treatment.

Interesting how something so small, and seemingly insignificant can affect one person, causing a ripple effect that could affect millions in a positive way.

I know I go through long-ish periods without blogging, but for some reason, I felt the need to write today. The days are getting shorter, and the temps are feeling a lot cooler. When I go outside, the autumn trees and their majestic colors just take my breath away. The season is changing, and a…
