| Description: | The Broken Brown Egg was "born" (little infertility humor) out of a need. As an African American woman, facing one of the most private and painful points in my life, I was completely floored to find that there seemed to be no one in my community willing to be open about infertility. This is not to say that infertility doesn't affect all races or ethnicities, (and it hurts just the same, believe me) but to not find any resources, and to be a part of an ethnic group which regards infertility as a taboo topic, made it evident that a void was definitely present. The goal of the BBE is to start the dialogue and encourage African American women to talk about this topic so that women who are dealing with infertility won't feel so alone, through humor, activism, and hope. |

Things I've learned on this journey.
Things I've learned on my TTC journey: 1. Everyone isn't meant to be included in your pain. Telling people what you are going through can backfire. No joke, I've had two family members try and give me their grand kids because they felt that their daughter's weren't ready. It can also backfire because then everytime you walk past a baby aisle or hear someone announce their pregnancy, concerned

The subconscious is a cruel little deviant. But she usually has a point. So, anywho, I dreamed about this test for some reason, so I can only assume that it is something I'm supposed to share with you guys. I present to you, the dreaded HSG test. One of the many preemptive strikes some RE's or OB/GYN's will take is the hysterosalpingogram test. If this is a step that your doctor has

Yes, I know, I've been absent...insert ashamed face here....don't have one? here you go Okay, so I had a lot to say, but in rare form, I didn't have the words to get them out.
