NO INSIDE VOICE

[cantfakethecake]

I've spent a long time now DEEP in fertility treatment and pregnancy research, groups, etc. And still, somehow no one warned me that, "OH dang, it looks like the alien from Alien!" is not, actually, what you're supposed to say when you first see a picture of your fetus.

Common thoughts in my 20s: "I don't know who i am. I am lonely. Joy is fleeting, depression is eternal. The world is not built in a manner that can sustain me comfortably."

Common thoughts in my 30s: Goddamm, the unresolved sexual tension between the ant and the wood pigeon is CRAZY on this episode of Circle Round!"

My office divvies up part of our caseload alphabetically, and one of our secretaries just sent me a new file that's not in my part of the alphabet. Because I'm so very helpful I responded:

Moments later, the printer in my office fired up and spit out this piece of paper:

Three things:

In case I haven't babbled enough about it in tags over the last few months, I'm starting IVF soon to be a single mom. Which is insane, and feels like something I shouldn't be allowed to do? But it's happening! I'll probably want to talk about it on here sometimes, but don't want to trigger anyone who'd be upset about it. Are there any tags I should use on my posts? If IVF's successful and I end up growing a kid I'll obviously tag any posts accordingly, but have no idea if there's a certain tag/phrase I should use that'd make trying-to-conceive posts easier to filter out.

Muscling through the last few years of burnout at work was so worth it. I'm in a lower-stress position in my agency now, and still get to keep our insane health insurance plan. IVF is totally covered up to $30,000, with no infertility diagnosis required - and it includes donor materials and genetic testing! That's fucking unheard of.

Names have been my Special Interest for 20+ years now and I finally get to use one on a Real Actual Person?!??!?!?!
