The Face of Infertility — Days 2-8
So, after posting a self-portrait of my feelings on infertility last week, I thought it would be interesting to do a self-portrait study over the course of one cycle. Today, I’m posting days two through eight. If you missed day one, you can go back and check it out.

Day 2

Day 3

Day 4

Day 5

Day 6

Day 7

Day 8
Thus completes my first week of this little project. So far, so interesting.
Love that roses made an appearance and I love that you are smiling again! Keep it up!

Day 4 is my fave. You look genuinely happy and kinda silly, which is always good

I like Day 4, too. This is a good little project, simple and powerful. Hugs!

Ha! Oh when you’re done can I make these into a little calender image for you so you can just look and go “Oh! Yep, that was the 4th alright”? =)

Really, I don’t think it’s the end of the world. Although I’m sure you’re astoundingly sad, I think there’s still hope for you. I’m looking on the bright side and hoping there’s happier days to come for you and your husband.

Day 3 is my favorite, but it’s a great sign with all the smiles in 5, 6, and 8!!

It’s definitely nice to see some happy faces on your blog. I’m glad you didn’t have to see that mean bitch of a nurse who made you cry. Wooo Hooo!

I like it when other bloggers post photos of themselves. Does that make me creepy? I feel kinda creepy admitting it. Anyway, you are absolutely adorable

Glad to see you are doing mostly better!

Going back to look at Day 1 again makes me sad.
But Day 5 makes me very, very happy!

This is a great project, Erin. I’m glad to see you smiling in most of your pictures, but still… so sorry for the bad days.

My personal favorite is the rose photograph because you’re smiling.
Sending you positive thoughts, lady!
