Only my hairdresser knows.....and my sister

The truth is I have no idea what to do with this blog. I honestly don't. I am conflicted beyond belief. I initially started out thinking that I wanted a place to be myself and also to talk about my infertility and desire to have another child with round 2, but also wanted to talk about my IVF miracle baby. The problem with all of this is that it does not make a great deal of sense. How can you have a baby and be infertile?

It is almost impossible to find the right mixture of these issues to blog about and I am conflicted because I do not know if I want to put myself out there because I have never been forthcoming with my husband's nor my family (sans my sister and *hairdresser) about my infertility. I just never could fit it into a conversation. I was and still am so afraid that I will fail that I do not know anyone to see my struggle. I do not know why this would be such a problem for me though, it's not like anyone thinks I'm perfect. I mean let's be honest...that cat jumped out of the bag many years ago! There is nothing about me that is perfect, flawless, or even a horseshoe throw close to that.

So why the act? Okay, I have been trying to do the whole "fake it til you make it" with this blog. Basically, I have continued to update almost daily and thought about back logging posts. I have also tried to update and keep it light, but informative. Now what I never did was attach my blog to my Twitter account so my followers could find me, or actually put the widget that allows followers to follow me because I was too afraid that I would have no followers and I did not want to stare at the (0) followers on my page.

I understand why the infertile community would not want to follow me though. After all, I have been successful that is a jagged pill to swallow. Now, here I am again in another two week wait, and what happens if I am successful again? It would just piss off more people I am sure who would think I am merely secondary infertile-which is not the case.

Damn! I do not know what to do.
