The Day in the life Mompreneur:

Leave a Comment / From the desk of WWW / By Jennifer Palumbo

When Grace Abler asked to follow me around and capture my day and overall real life, I thought to myself, “I don’t know if I could try to look that good every day.” You look at some Mompreneur’s on Instagram and they look amazing just doing their laundry or writing a check. That’s not me. Yes, I meet the Mompreneur criteria: Running my own company, working from home, being a mother of two (after years of dealing with infertility), having a son on the autistic spectrum and regularly finding time to advocate for women’s health but my life, is at times, insane.

IVF Doesn’t Always Work the First Time

Did you know (and you may want to sit down) that according to a 2015 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), on average, the process of success for IVF (i.e. six to nine cycles) will take a total of two years, which is similar to rates that couples conceiving naturally take in one year?

I’ve been thinking of the Gilda Radner quote, “It’s always something.” And with me, it always is. Whenever I ask certain people, “What’s new?” and they answer, “Nothing new really.” I’m always floored. Those people exist. They have lives that have their bumps here and there, and your typical stressful life (traffic, paying bills, where …

At Pregnantish Event Every National Infertility Awareness Week, I typically end up writing two posts. One, at the “start” of the week of my initial thoughts and feelings and then one, near the “end” of the week of anything I learned or have been inspired by during the course of the week. This year, I …

This is not going to be your ordinary National Infertility Awareness Week post. This is an official, raw, blunt call to action. I’m serious. I’ve had it. I’m officially getting fed up and I plan on putting the “war” in “Social Warrior”. Let’s start with the beginning of this month, shall we? April 1st. Despite …

Resolve Night of Hope – December 4, 2017 Mother effer. I’m so sorry it took me THIS long to write another post. A lot has been going on… the holidays (which oddly enough kicked my ass more than usual this year), work (which is a high-quality problem – to be busy and in demand but …

Let me tell you about the week of October 23rd as it was a roller coaster of a week. I was getting ready for ASRMin San Antonio and even came up with a cutesy-poo meme (of sorts). Well, I thought it was cute. It was to be my first ASRM conference and I could NOT …

This week, the nominees for Hope Award for Best Blog by Resolve were “released” and I’m humbled and fortunate to be recognized and included in this truly kick ass list. This is the second time I’ve been nominated which makes me feel a little like Susan Lucci (super throwback reference but those who get it …

First, it drives me nuts that I can’t write on here more. It’s a high-quality problem though so I can’t complain too much. The last couple of months have been a lot of big changes and although, in the end, they all resulted in good things, it still was a process to get to a …
