Hi. I'm Lindsay. And I have a fertility problem. But I am more than my unexplained infertility. I am a former Kindergarten teacher, a wife, a pretty well-rounded tomboy. I was born in Iowa, a child of the midwest, and even though I have lived in Florida for almost a decade, I still revel in my midwestern innocence. I have a great family, an amazing husband, good friends, a well mannered dog, and a beautiful home with plenty of room to fill with little ones. I love theatre, folk music, planting things and watching them grow, telling funny stories, and seeing the world through the eyes of my 5 year-old students. After three years of struggle, through the wonders of IVF, I became a mother to fraternal twin daughters. I usually get what I'm after- even if I have to take the long way around the barn.

April 08 - First consult with RE. He looks at our file, and says he has no doubt that IVF with ICSI is the way to go for us and that he has total confidence that it will work. I am glad someone around here has confidence in something.
