Celebrity Week Continues…

Just a few days in, and I am ready for Celebrity Week to be over. I click on the latest celebrity stories as much as the next person; I thought this would be easy. But lists of who did what to get a you-know-what (or two) have already been done. And I hate being late […]

Breaking News: A Famous Woman Wants to Have a Baby

Wow. That’s not really a headline, is it?
Replace “famous woman” with “Naomi Campbell” and all of a sudden, the tongues are wagging, the rags are raggin’. This seems to be the biggest celebrity/fertility news today. According to numerous. online. sources. Naomi has undergone some surgery to “improve her odds of being a mum.” No additional […]

Taking Ownership of a Childfree Life

Confession: I’m having a harder time with “Celebrity Week” here at Fertility Notes than I thought I would.
Of course, I can rehash the who used IVF and who didn’t and point to some current folks that everyone has their eye one (and the week’s not over, I might). But that info seems tired. Old. Not […]

“Celebrity Week” at the Health & Wellness Channel Begins Tomorrow

Who doesn’t peruse the People Magazine while waiting in line at the grocery checkout? Who doesn’t pick up an Us Magazine or its ilk when waiting to be called at the dentist? Even if you don’t subscribe, you still sneak some peeks at what so and so is doing or who you know who is […]

Sunday Fun - Guest Posting at JabandGrapple.com

Some of you may know that in addition to Fertility Notes and Daily Tomorrow, I also have a more anonymous blog out there in the blogosphere. As if these alter-egos aren’t enough, it seems I’ve donned another hat: Mrs. JabandGrapple.

Fertility in History - Happy Anniversary (to the Head of) Anne Boleyn

Ah Anne, I’ve been thinking about you a lot lately. Probably because this show is currently the reason I look forward to the ends of my weekends, my Sunday nights.
Today is a memorable day for you, Lady Anne. After a brief marriage and far too many miscarriages and missed chances to provide your husband a […]

The Kentucky Derby - Contrasting Joy and Loss

The Kentucky Derby is an event that always gets me emotionally. Even if I know none of the back stories, even if the first time I see a horse is when its bursting from the gates, watching it push through to the finish line and then seeing the joy rushing out from its owners, its […]

A Belated Thank You to Dr. M. Lois Murphy

Perhaps sometimes I dwell too much on what I have lost because of cancer, more specifically because of the chemotherapy and radiation given to me to treat it. The reality is, I owe an awful lot to the chemo and radiation I often curse.
And I owe an awful lot to Dr. M. Lois Murphy,

Who’s Your Baby Mama?

Do I admit that this movie looks, frankly, pretty damn funny? Offensive? I am sure. Inaccurate? Not sure. (I’m guessing yes.) While I am not the biggest fan of Amy Poehler, I hold a soft spot in my heart to Tina Fey, if only because I feel as if we always seemed to be living […]
