When those 2 happy pink lines disappear. 👼🏽👼🏽

Question

Why doesn't anyone ever tell you before you start TTC, just how hard it actually is? My fiancé and I have been trying for 6 months now. I know it's not as long as a lot of people, so I don't want to be bombarded with "you haven't been trying for long" and such. I just want to share, In 6 months we've experienced an early miscarriage at 6 weeks and as of this afternoon a chemical pregnancy. For the last two days, I thought this was it. Those 2 happy pink lines were there.. They were faint, but they were there. Then all of a sudden this morning they were gone. I thought, 'Hmm.. Maybe my urine was just diluted. Don't sweat it Kate.. Baby's fine.' Then came the cramping, so I took a nap. Woke up for work and AF has shown her awful self. Feeling bummed. Just seems everyone's pregnant, but me. When will we get our rainbow? 👼🏽👼🏽💔🌈  I'm sorry, but I needed to vent. Maybe I thought it'd make me feel better.

Answer

The pain is just as real at 6 months and 2 losses as it is at 4.5 years and 9 losses. But I am finally growing a sticky baby and I promise you you will grow and have grown in ways that couldn't have happened otherwise. It hurts like I imagine hell feels. You have nothing left and hope leaves you, but when you are that stripped down, you find a piece of you that is unbreakable. And once you find that piece, once you have nothing left but that unbreakable shard, you can grow so strong there's nothing in the world that could ever break you. You start building the rest of you just as unshakable as that core. The world needs more people that strong, instead of so many saplings that break in the breeze. Not that it takes away the pain, but that it gives the pain a purpose. Shake it off and step up.

Answer

It's OK a loss is a loss no matter how long we've all been trying.

Answer

Trust me, you're not alone! 2 of my friends went through miscarriages with me. They are all pregnant now and I'm still waiting. Everybody says be patient so, I won't be one of them. I'm one of them that understands what you're going through and just how hard being patient is. We found out we were pregnant at 5 weeks and at 10 weeks found out our baby quit growing at 5 weeks 6 days and we lost it. Just 6 days after finding out our baby died. I understand exactly what you're going through. You're not alone😊

Answer

I'm with ya! It's so hard... But all the waiting will hopefully turn into a rainbow!!  🌈 We just have to keep trying 💕.
