I'd like to introduce myself...

Hello, my name is Stephanie and I am reproductively challenged. I live in NYC with my husband Louie. We have been married for almost 4 years this July. I have 2 feather/fur babies. My parrot Baby which I've had for almost 18 years. Yep, that's right. Parrots have a lifespan of up to 30 years!! My Lhasa Princess is almost 2-1/2yrs old and she is just precious. Louie and I dated for almost six years before we got married. I have the most amazing husband a girl could ask for. Sometimes I think I don't even deserve him. He has been my rock through all the ups and downs in my life. Louie wanted to get married soon, I wanted to wait. Louie wanted to have children right away, I wanted to to wait. I had a thriving career that required I travel often and I was so afraid of growing up. Little did I know that what I feared so much when I was younger, was the going to be the only thing I would yearn for in my life. To be a mother and to make my husband the father he for so long wanted to be. A couple of years ago we started TTC. For the first year we were in total denial that there could be something wrong with us. Why weren't able to conceive?? Well...we had every reason in the world. We were too stressed. We missed the small window of ovulation. I got up too quickly from bed after BD...you name it ...we thought of it. Finally we decided to see a specialist. After many tests on both Louie and I...the verdict was still out. What was wrong with us??? There was no medical explanation for our being reproductively challenged. Unexplained infertility. Yep..that's what they call it. I think it is worst when you don't know problem. How were we going to fix this? After 6 months of fertility treatments...we decided to take a break. I needed a break. My body needed a break. My heart needed a break. We needed a break!!!! Later on I would like to post more details about my treatments. For now.....I just wanted to give you all a brief breakdown of where we are in our lives. We have so much love and want so badly to give that love to a child. A child we could call our very own. A child we can hold in our arms and love endlessly. So here we are in our break cycle. Stay tuned for more details about our current situation.....
