Sadly, the past few weeks have been sad and disappointing in bloggy land. It seems like every day there is another loss, another negative. Between this and my own negative cycle 2 months ago it is hard to be optimistic about my next cycle. Each time I read about another blogger suffering from a loss or a BFN I hurt for them. And I feel that pain all over again. I hate that infertility is wrought with so much sadness. I can't help but wonder if it will work next time. A part of me wants to just stop now and and not put myself through this again. But the truth is that no matter what I have to try again. I am not ready to give up.
So this pic is for all of you that need it today. I hope that it is as much an encouragement to you as it was to me.
I like it. Sometimes it can be so hard to hold onto hope! There has been so much loss recently.
ReplyDelete*hugs* The past has been written, but the future is new and unwritten. I hang onto that and it is hopeful and exciting. I am praying for your next cycle. I'm holding onto oodles of hope for the both of us. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, has it really been 2 months for you???
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this. There has been lots of loss, both on blogger world and on babycenter.
I share those same thoughts: can I put myself through this again? Can I find hope for the next time?
I'm praying for you as you save $$ and hope for your next cycle.
I totally get your feelings. I have always said that fertility struggles should come with a crystal ball. If we could all just know that in the end we get the children of our hopes and dreams then the in between would be far less painful. I have so many feeling looking back on my 3+ years of treatments, surgeries, and disappointments. I don't regret a minute of it or resent the path I had to take to get where I am now. However, I just wish I had known that it would happen because I had so many dark moments. I know at times it feels so dark and frustrating but you will have your happy ending. Thinking of you and knowing that you will be a momma we just have to wait to see how and when it happens. Stay strong, that is a beautiful picture!
ReplyDeleteGood picture. Good sentiment.
