My husband and I have been together for almost 3 years and we have been trying for a baby for 6 to 7 months. each month that my period is late gets my hopes up so much. then when it finally starts it breaks my heart and I cry. Being a mother is all I want. I have a step daughter. his daughter and I love her like my own but if like to have a baby of my own to add to the little family. I'm praying this month we succeed but I have doubts. i try not to get my hopes up to much but it's hard not to. I understand that maybe my weight has alot to do with why I can't get pregnant. I'm underweight, but my mother always was too and she had 4 kids so I don't know.
