A Wink & a Smile |
We're Kristen and Dan, two all-American kids just trying to make it in the crazy world. And by make it, we mean make a kid -- something we've had trouble with since 2008. We'll talk about what we're dealing with when it comes to this whole infertility thing, from the medical procedures to how it affects us as a couple to the ridiculous hurdles of insurance. Follow along. It'll be fun. |
About a week after we heard one strong healthy heartbeat I started to show. Wouldn’t you know, the first day I had to wear my pants unbuttoned someone would pat my belly and ask if I was pregnant! I was in shock and my face turned beat red. “No, I’ve just gained some weight from working here,” I lied. Then told her it was her fault, jokingly, because she was holding a packet of cookies. Later that day, I went back to tell her the truth because I felt bad about lying to her. Admittedly, they do eat all the time at my school and there are treats everywhere you look. Maybe people can start to see a little something there. I just can’t really suck it in any more!
