Dear Universe,
I don't really think you hate me. I wasn't in a happy place when I blamed you for that. You've been very good to me in a lot of other aspects in my life. I'm healthy, I have a great family and awesome friends.
What I have learned about infertility, or at least, the inability to get pregnant easily, is that it doesn't matter how much money you have, or your social standing, when it comes to this, there's an even playing field. While you can be affluent enough to be able to afford IVF or even adoption, no amount of money can MAKE you pregnant.
I'm taking a breath, regrouping, looking for an egg donor and hoping, dear Universe, that you'll still look out for me and find it in your huge heart to give me my baby...soon.
N x
I hope with all my heart that one day you will be a mummy.
love to you sweets.
xoxo

Hi Nicky,
I can truly understand your plight.
I am involved with the Melbourne IVF donor program and have seen the problems with the medical side and the shortage of donors.
I have also seen the positive outcomes, and feel privileged to be helping others.
This is not something I have shared on Twitter though, hence writing here.
I hope that you also see positive outcomes.
Ian

Hi Nicky...
I first saw you on the message boards of JDate and you had mentioned this blog. I favorited the address and have been reaing what you have been going through. My mother was reading a message board on the IMDB for the reality show Giuiliana and Bill, and told me that there was an interesting post and told me to read it. I was visiting (always visiting, since we live within walking distance) and someone had written a message about Giuliana using IVF versus the Catholic based method called Napro. The posts became heated between the pro-Napro Catholic viewer and the viewer who questions the other's remarks, which is against IVF for ethical reasons, which is discarding unused embryos. Maybe you've heard about this, I don't know. But I thought of you, and if you haven't heard about it, I'll send the link to this.

Anyway, I sincerely hope that you get what you want so desperately. I'm 29 and still trolling JDate and Match.com for a decent guy!!
