A Bundle of
Observations for the Baby-Making Challenged by Lisa Safran
Lisa Safran writes
from personal experience. She and her husband spent five long
years trying to conceive a baby. Sure, they started off like any
other ordinary couple, tossing all birth control methods in the
trash, but when they were diagnosed with male factor infertility
(sperm-related problems) they found themselves in a whirlwind of
medical procedures, exams and other technologically-based
situations that would hopefully help them to become pregnant. As
the author's baby-making process intensified (she took myriad
hormone medications and was enrolled in an in vitro
fertilization cycle; a.k.a. "IVF"), Ms. Safran realized that if
she didn't find the strength to laugh at some of these
situations she would have cried a lot more. Laughin'fertility is
a collection of these funny observations. Lisa Safran is a
professional writer, having worked as a promotional copywriter
as well as a contributing writer to national magazines.
Infertility is not
a choice. But laughter is. Choose to laugh whenever you can
