After the IVF

This month's issue of Good Housekeeping (which I think is kind of a stodgy title, but I still enjoy the magazine) has two seperate stories in it that mention IVF and infertility. One is about a lady who had ivf (husband had vasectomy) and a subsequent miscarriage and found out that it happened because of a genetic disease. They were able to use PGD to have a healthy baby. The other article is about real life women weight loss stories (I think every issue has an article like this one!) One lady gained a lot of weight during infertility treatments and made a committment to lose weight after her baby was born. For me it was nice to see the media acknowledge infertility and ivf as real and not so weird...that their readers' would be interested in knowing more about women who go thru this.
