This blog is for women who have experienced infertility, miscarriage, or adoption loss. It is a hard burden to bare and I am someone who has experienced it all too well. Over the last 5 years, I have tried 6 rounds of IVF, miscarried 2 precious babies, and had 3 failed adoptions. However, I have learned to trust in the Lord and to say "And if not, He is still good." Daniel 3:18. Thanks for joining me on this journey called life! If you are reading this, I am praying for you!
This question comes too often the moment the I dos are stated. I've had to remind myself too many times that the interviewer/nosy party often has their heart in the right place, they just forget or have no experience with the loss that can & does happen behind the scenes. It doesn't help the hurt to think about that but it helps rationalize a bit. I'll never forget my sweet hubs responding to an old woman as she asked "when are you two going to have children already?" And before I could stop him he replied "when are they having your funeral already?" She didn't hear well so that ended better than it could have... So yeah, as woman we should work harder to at least be knowledgable about infertility and loss at least to make ourselves better friends and better humans at life...
Keep posting. Your words have value and your spirit is such a sweet and beautiful gift to all of us.
This is fantastic! You are such a good writer. I hate that you are going through this, but I know He is working things together for your good. Watching you go through this has taught me so much. Your strength and faithfulness are a true inspiration. I pray for you daily, and my heart aches for you. I love you like a sister! I can't wait to meet your baby whenever He sees the time is right. Love you!!
Lovely.
