Speaking from the heart.... infertility sucks! Feeling hurt, jealous, anger, and depressed are not who we are but those are the emotions that had begun to consume us. I feel like I was trying so hard to appear OK that I did not deal with the loss. We knew we needed to find our happiness again before continuing forward, so we chose to begin counseling. In one of my appointments, my counselor asked if my goal was to be pregnant or to be a mom. That question really resonated with me because I realized I was so focused on not being able to conceive that I couldn't see the ultimate goal which is to be a mommy and care for a beautiful baby. For anyone who is thinking about speaking to a counselor, I would highly recommend it. I am not saying that we are 'fixed' but I feel we are headed on the right path again.
Our application is almost complete and we are hoping to turn it in very soon. Lots of friends and family have been asking us to re-open the t-shirt fundraiser so we did today! Thank you so much for your support and sharing our story. We love seeing pictures of yall wearing our love shirts!
