Today...💔

Lauren • RN 🩺 recurrent unexplained losses 💔 12.6.20 🌈👶🏻💙 FET baby girl born 11.4.22 💕✨ baby #3 EDD 8.17.24 💚

...it all hit me really, really hard. Seeing all the Valentine’s Day baby announcements and all the sweet little babies dressed up for the holiday... it just crushed me. I cried so much today. AF was due tomorrow and I was going to test today. We miscarried in September and I was just so sure it was my turn. We did everything right and this was our last chance before we turn to fertility treatments. I was so excited that I might find out I was finally pregnant on Valentine’s Day... the idea of surprising my husband with that kind of news was so exciting to me. And we’d be able to do an Easter announcement on social media- how fun! But AF decided to show up today and break my heart. I’m so numb. And now I have to call my RE tomorrow... my husband really wants me to- he wants us to do this... but I wanted it to happen naturally. I can’t wrap my head around the fact that I need to resort to fertility treatments. I don’t know that I’m emotionally or mentally ready for this. But I also don’t know how much longer I can wait. I just feel broken and so lost. 😔
