Let’s talk...

About the rounds and rounds of fertility treatments we’ve tried.

About the mood swings, hot flashes, and so many other side effects caused by these meds.

About the longing our hearts feel for something we just can’t seem to have.

About the countless tears we’ve cried.

About the never ending heart aches we feel.

About the loneliness we feel when yet another woman announces her pregnancy on social media.

Let’s talk about the negative pregnancy tests.

Because after rounds of meds, side effects, crying, and achy hearts, a negative pregnancy may seem like it defines who we are. You feel isolated, in your bathroom, all alone. Crying. You question who you are and why you are like this. I’ve done this too many times. I know a lot of you are the same.

But we can’t let this disappointing test define us.

We are strong. We are loved.

This is a long journey, and it at times becomes pretty unbearable, but we will get through it. And the destination will be more than worth it. ❤️
