“Marriage can contain everything. Marriage can contain everything.”

Infertility treatment can be full of humorous moments. For instance, there’s the moment the two of you suddenly realize you have no container in which to put a sperm sample you must rush over to the lab.

There’s sticking a thermometer in your mouth each day to gauge if one of your ovaries has sent out something at the correct time. Then there are the times you’re sure you are ovulating and rush home to have the sex neither of you remotely feels like having, only to realize you’ve read the little ovulation stick incorrectly.

This week’s Modern Love column, by Deborah Derrickson Kossmann, was particularly good.
