I don’t want to hear it

Katelyn • Endo Warrior 💛 working towards baby #1.

I don’t want to hear “you’re still young, you have plenty of time”. I don’t want to hear “stop trying, it happens when you stop trying”. I don’t want to hear “maybe it just needed to be the right person” (which I do agree with but I have a point). I don’t want to hear “it’ll happen when it’s meant to happen” (which I also see truth in). However, most of all, i do not want to hear “it’s ok”, because to me, it isn’t. It isn’t ok that I have wanted to be a mother since forever and I have not been able to conceive. It hurts that no matter what I do it isn’t happening. It hurts that everyone around me gets pregnant and has babies but while I am happy for them it hurts me because I think to myself “why not me?” It kills me to think that I may not be able to conceive, carry and give birth to my own flesh and blood child. It scares me to think how I will never be able to afford the surgery I need for endometriosis that could get the disease out and maybe allow me to get pregnant. Lord knows I’ll never be able to afford

so there’s that fear as well. What if I can never have a baby of my own. Of course i would look into adoption (if I can afford it) and I have a beautiful little “step daughter” with my love but I’m sure anyone who knows how this feels knows what I mean when I say my heart hurts thinking I’ll never be able to have a baby with the man I love. It just hurts. My heart goes out to everyone else going through this. Sometimes we just need a sympathetic ear and a shoulder to cry on, not someone who is going to say “don’t be so negative” because sometimes, we just don’t want to hear it.
