Now, Where to Begin this Blog?

Written by Arpee on June 8, 2008 – 6:51 pm -

As of today, I am in the middle of my first injectable cycle with my new doctor. (This is actually by third injectable cycle, all in all, considering the 2 cycles with my previous doctor.) So, I am unsure where and how to begin this infertility blog.

I’m thinking about first backtracking as early as the first infertility diagnosis procedures with my new doctor so that this blog makes chronological sense. That means, I will be posting recent history first before current events. I wonder though if and when I will ever get current? (Why didn’t I start blogging about our infertility journey earlier??? Good question I ask myself a couple of times already.)

I’m thinking also of just starting with current events right now and then just intersperse the recent history as I have time to do that in retrospect. It will feel like a bad movie with a lot of flashbacks… but it will be easier for me.

Decisions, decisions…

Aha!!! I thought of something that will have the best of both worlds - starting current while having recent history still posted chronologically.
- I will be starting with current events (using current date as the publishing/posting date).
- I will post recent history, as I am able to write (using previous dates as the publishing/posting date)

As for my pre-new doctor saga, I will just create a separate page in this infertility blog in addition to this Home page (tabs on the top) to capture it. I will be revising them as I feel inspired.

BTW, I know I will have to eventually quit calling her my “new” doctor. For now though, let’s call her that - my new doctor.
