December 4th Is National Cookie Day! Fertility Solutions Shares Our Best Recipes

Posted In Fertility Solutions

Dec 03 2015

At Fertility Solutions, we want to help ease the sometimes difficult holiday season our patients can experience. Facing an infertility diagnosis or undergoing fertility treatment during the holidays can be tough, as you are often expected to attend parties and gatherings where you may be asked questions about family planning.

We understand that this can be trying, and we’ve written educational blog posts on topics such as how to talk to someone struggling with infertility and how fertility support groups can be incredibly helpful as you build your family.

In order to spread a little holiday cheer to all of our patients, we’ve asked our staff to round up their best holiday cookie recipes in honor of National Cookie Day on December 4th. We hope you’ll check out our favorites and please let us know your best cookie recipes in the comment section!
