My story condensed

So to make a really long story short, my uterus and I have never seen eye to eye. It wants one thing, I want something different, so needless to say it's been a long, arduous relationship. Since becoming my best and worst frenemy, it's plotted to thwart my conception plans from day one. From becoming allies with my ovaries, to coaxing my usually neutral fallopian tubes to get in on the action, it's been a struggle to get knocked up. First came the ectopic pregnancy, then the miscarriages, yadda, yadda, yadda. It took us 1 1/2 years to get our first son, and now we're back on the baby-making band wagon trying to trek our way through the always changing, treacherous roads of the Oregon Trail they call conception. If only I had my own Sacajawea to guide me through pills, tests and medical jargon that make up this crazy world of infertility! So here I am, documenting my findings on our journey. It could be good, it could be bad, I'm not making any promises! All I know is that it helps me to know that there are others out there that struggle with it too! Our community is actually quite large! So please feel free to read my blabber and share your own!
"Did we just become best friends?"
"Yup!"
