Wanted to introduce myself! My husband has male factor infertility, with motility luckily having gone from 0% to 35% with the help of supplements, but still low count. TTC for almost 2 years.

Yesterday was a bad day. I was 4 days late with my period and thought maybe we had a miracle and were pregnant. But I got my period at the end of the day. I feel like each period is worse than the one before, I can’t help but cry and get angry because I want to MOVE ON with our lives. This has consumed us.

I made the leap and called our RE today to set up the <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> class where I order the meds, do the schedule, etc. I am very scared and I have anxiety on a normal basis, but this is putting it through the roof.

Yesterday, in the midst of my crying, I told my husband, “I wonder how it feels to just get pregnant normally... how excited people must be. I’ll never get to have that happen because if it does happen, it won’t be this happy surprise, it’ll be all done through medical supervision.”

Infertility has robbed many of us from joy that so many take for granted. Be kind to yourselves today. ❤️
