The First Time, A Ghost Story

<b>What the night we first miscarried taught us about life.</b>

a blog by The Meyers

JOY:

Pregnant for the first time, I had no idea what to expect. All I knew was that I was happy. I felt great physically and emotionally. I felt tough and triumphant. Like “See, it’s no big whoop. I got pregnant after just five months. And I feel fine.” Of course, Jim was happy, too. I remember him telling me he was proud of me for staying upbeat and acting strong . I was barely pregnant and we were already telling people. 7 weeks pregnant, I went to a class at my doctor’s office. I felt normal. I was doing everything right.

Getting Started

Where There's Smoke, There's Fire

<b>Why smoking is a total no-no for fertility.</b>

a blog by Marie Lee

Smoking is bad for you on so many levels. The smoke itself contains heavy metals and other carcinogenic chemicals, nicotine is addicting, and smoke constricts blood vessels (yes, heavy smokers get that wrinkly look around their mouths from lack of circulation). To put it bluntly, smoking is a total no-no for fertility.

That's the Way the Cookie Crumbles

<b>Let’s face it. Our cookies are crumbled, but they're still cookies.</b>

a blog by Murgdan

Two years ago I received a call from my mother that was filled to the brim with gossip. She frequently calls with little juicy tidbits about “you-know-who” that I care absolutely nothing about. Mom knows I don’t care, yet she just can’t seem to resist trying to stir up a little mama-drama now and then, so I indulge her.

“Do you remember Susie Smith? You went to school with her? She can’t get pregnant. They’ve been trying for nine months. She’s just heartbroken. They want kids so badly . . ." And so on and so forth.

Father of None, Father of All

<b>George Washington didn't have any children, but he did father a country.</b>

a blog by Pamela Tsigdinos

The line snaked down a gravel path for nearly a quarter mile and the wait time to get into the historic home on the edge of the Potomac River was nearly 55 minutes long. The shade from the tulip and oak trees helped to bring relief to the antsy and eclectic group of people shuffling their feet waiting to get a look back into the life of Martha and George Washington.

A Look at Fertility Books

<b>"A Child Against All Odds" by Robert Winston</b>

a blog by Liz

When I started A Child Against All Odds by Robert Winston, I devoured the first chapter and wanted you all to read it. By the end of Chapter 4, I didn’t want any of you to read it. When I finally finished it, I was torn.

Do Twins Run in My Family? Nope.

by Dena Fischer

Over the five and half years since my twins were born, I’ve been asked, probably close to a gazillion times, whether twins run in my family – usually by a total stranger. My answer, no matter how rushed I am, how friendly I’m feeling or how much my kids are driving me crazy in that moment, usually contains something along the lines of “nope – it was a whole lotta science.”

Take Your Dog to Work Day

<b>I don't have a daughter to bring to work, but I can bring my adorable pup.</b>

a blog by The Editors

OK, I've got a "To Write" list a mile long, but I just have to blog quickly about how much I love the e-letter Little Pink Book, tagged as "The ultimate collection of fashion, style and corner office smarts." It arrives in my email box daily and 9 times out of 10, I find it interesting.

So I just read today's LPB and it really hit home. "Bulldog in the Boardroom" is about showing your softer side as a boss by taking part in "Take Your Dog to Work Day," Friday, June 26:
