Dr. Werlin's Fertility World

Happy (early) Mother’s Day! Today I was thinking about this special holiday, and I wanted to share a few fun Mother’s Day facts I uncovered:

· Did you know the first Mother’s Day was celebrated in 1907 and was established by Anna Marie Jarvis? Jarvis devoted her life to establishing Mother's Day as a national after her mother’s death in 1905.

· Did you know that Mother’s Day holidays are also observed in several other countries? "Mothering Sunday" is celebrated in the UK and Ireland on the fourth Sunday of Lent.

· Did you know in China most names begin with a character signifying mother which honors the maternal heritage? Every day is a day to celebrate your mother!

I would like to also extend my gratitude to mothers nationwide – especially those whom I have had the pleasure of working with. You all encompass a loving and caring nature. This holiday reminds my team and me of why we are in the business we love – to help others achieve the gift of motherhood.

Recently I received a wonderful email from former patient, Kasey Russell. She wanted to share her thanks to the team at Coastal Fertility. Kasey first came to me in 2002 and since then I have helped her family to grow – she is currently pregnant with her third child. It is always a pleasure to hear from my patients and I wanted to share what she wrote. I encourage any other former/current Coastal Fertility patients to comment or send me an email.

After a year of trying on my own I had a tube removed and was told to seek fertility treatments. I went to Dr. Werlin for help. I have been a patient of Dr. Werlin's twice. The first time was in 2002 and I became pregnant on our first round and gave birth to a beautiful healthy little girl, the second time was in 2005 and again gave birth to a beautiful healthy little girl in 2006. Since then we have had a tubal pregnancy in September of 2007 which Dr. Werlin was there for me. Low and behold, with only one tub and not a very good one at that I came up pregnant again in March (this year). My husband and I were nervous to get excited at first knowing my history, but I am now 11 weeks pregnant with baby #3 and everything looks good. Dr. Werlin is the best and I miss his special care that I received during my first two pregnancies. I definitely have two miracle babies, and now one on the way.

Never give up hope! Thanks Werl!!!
