I'm so tired of parents complaining about how hard it is to parent the kids they CHOSE to create.

My husband thinks acupuncture is a waste of money, and honestly there's very little data to back up that it does anything. Most people eventually get pregnant while on acupuncture, but most people do get pregnant within a year of trying anyway so I think it's a correlation/causation thing. But it's not something I'm refusing to do.

This cycle I did start taking supplements that I can find OTC. Most doctors will not evaluate someone under 35 for infertility unless they've been trying for 12 months which I think is absurd because almost everyone seems to be pregnant by 3-4 months. But it's whatever. I guess technically, knock wood, cycle 4 hasn't ended yet but I strongly suspect it will soon.
