All my circle of friends and family that I know have gotten pregnant naturally.

I’ve gone through 1.5 years of trying naturally, 5 failed IUIs, 3 surgeries, and 1 <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> procedure (that ended up me in the ER..) but, despite it all, our FET worked! We are currently 37.5 weeks pregnant and waiting to see when the baby decides it wants to come to this world. Took close to 4 years to achieve this 1st pregnancy.

All these circle of female friends and family are warning me about late nights, sleep deprivation, feeding problems, healing problems. But I can’t help but not be able to connect with them. You see, I didn’t even think I can become pregnant, yet alone a mother. I feel I still can’t believe I am going to have a baby. And that this baby is a miracle and is a blessing to my husband and I. I don’t feel the negative warnings, and the this and that’s. All I keep thinking is, I can’t believe I’m going to be given the chance to be a mom.

I’ve suffered from depression and anxiety and have been seeking professional help along the way of my infertility journey. So I know I’m in the right mindset for all of this.

I just feel blessed to be able to even be given the opportunity to become a mom. Does anyone who went through infertility feel like this too?

Because when my circle of friends and family speak about that stuff, I feel very different than what they are saying. And I think it’s because of my perspective through my rough infertility journey.

Just thought I should share.
