		<description><![CDATA[ While suffering with infertility I always had a secret hope that I am sure is shared by many other people who pursue fertility treatments.  I wanted more than anything to just miraculously get pregnant and prove all the doctors wrong, showing everyone that we weren&#8217;t actually infertile and that we could get pregnant [...]]]></description>

We continued the fertility treatments throughout the summer and fall of 1998. The fertility procedures were consuming my life. 
I had multiple doctor appointments each month between the follicle tracking, intrauterine inseminations (IUIs), and pregnancy tests. (The progesterone would cause a false positive if I took a home pregnancy test, so if my period was [...]]]></description>

I subscribe to a newsletter that gives little &#8220;bites&#8221; of health articles.  All of the infertility and fertility bites, I send along to this blog and comment on my experience with them.

My moods are normally pretty uneven, but on weeks like this they give new meaning to peaks and valleys.  Anything that seems like it might work, is [...]]]></description>

So I went to see my always happy, never stressed acupuncturist, Dr. Jiao, and he immediately looked at me and said my face didn&#8217;t look so &#8220;good.&#8221;  I told him about my dental problems, how I&#8217;d basically given myself non-cavity cavities by clenching my teeth so hard that they cracked, and of course I [...]]]></description>

My son just lost a front tooth, which is very cute.  There was another tooth behind it, just waiting to take its place.
I mentioned in an earlier post that even though my father went through starvation conditions during the Korean War, he died without a single cavity.  We kids were raised in a [...]]]></description>

There is another reason I am drinking lots of green tea (and coffee).  I need the strength to get through our taxes.
