Fecundity: The biological capacity or potential of an organism to produce offspring, often referred to as fertility or fruitfulness. It measures reproductive success via gamete count, seed set, or live births. Key factors include genetics, age, and environmental conditions (e.g., nutrition, health). Still gathering appointments and fertility data; nothing tested suggests any difficulty thus far.…

Pleased with the morning of the appointment- quite pleasant until I got to makeup, which just wasn’t working for me. Similarly the drive down, meh. However, I’m one step closer post appointment to some important data. A short discussion about next steps, more tests ordered; timing things with my cycle is part of what adds…

Tomorrow is a big day (ish) as I have the first appointment in official fertility counseling (as opposed to primary/women’s health appointments). I’m looking forward to it!

Today I finally set foot on the Appalachian Trail. I hiked to the highest peak in our area! The best part was the wild ponies. They were at the parking area fence, all along the trails, and in the nearby clearings. As I was returning on the path, I look up from my phone (navigating…

Blending medicine, biology, folklore, and history, I very much enjoyed it. Post appointment, we’ll have more fertility information! I’ve been through several appointments, likely…

I’ve had an odd sleep schedule recently; tonight, in the early morning hours, I feel it’s important to have some good culture cottage cheese and smart water.

October is here, and I’m enjoying the fall flavors, festivities, and shows inside the season. I’ve stopped by Starbucks for the PSL, and I quite enjoy the pumpkin cream cold brew. On more recent visits for coffee I’ve encountered a lot of smokers and I don’t enjoy having my coffee taste like cigarettes, or breathing…

Today I have some much needed time off work to take care of some tasks. There has been a lot of changes over the last year, and likely more added in the coming months, and I am considering which parts of the future I would bring into my life [sooner rather than later]. And whether…

Tonight I’m settling in with a cozy sweater for Wednesday. I’m looking forward to puppy cuddles, and a bite to eat. Have you ever found a moment where some people seem to pick up something that you’re not putting down? I don’t smoke, or date smokers. I drink more than just water these days. I…
