Dear Period

I know you are around the corner, I pray every month that you don’t come, so I can one day be a mommy. Everyone around me is pregnant and I feel a pang of jealousy. The expression “pregnancy is contagious” drives me nuts. My family says “well it’s just not your time” when is my time? When is my time to final hold and cradle a babe of my own in my arms wipe spit up or drool off their face. All I want is to have a baby. I know it’s not all cute faces and outfits. Understand the late nights, and shitty diapers, I understand it’s expensive. But to me having a baby would be the best expense in the whole world.

Sincerely,

A hopeful woman
