We Just Knew... But We Didn't Know Infertility Would Be A Problem!


Infertility is something we should talk about... While we FINALLY are expecting, we spent 7 years trying and today is about the struggle during the journey. Share your journey.

Infertility is something no one really wants to talk about, it's not really a taboo subject... but it's one that leaves the person "suffering" feeling like they are alone because it's awkward to discuss with those who just don't "get it".

Today let's talk about not being able to have a baby.

We spent years trying and when I say years I'm not over exaggerating. I tried OPKS, I tried the basal body temperature monitoring, we even tried some special vitamins that were recommended to us by family. It was seven years before we finally decided to suck it up and visit a doctor.

It's not that we didn't want to see a doctor beforehand, but we wanted to make sure we were 100% ready to financially take on infertility. We wanted to have the money to make sure our dream would come true.

So we went to see my doctor in 2015... and wouldn't you know it, after the initial meeting and one simple test, we finally saw a positive on a pregnancy test. There was no medical intervention, there was nothing different that happened.

I'm not sharing this story to get your hopes up, but I am sharing it to let you know... no matter how long the wait, your journey will eventually be worth it. You'll get your little one, even if it's through adoption, you will be able to fulfill your longing to become a parent somehow, some way.

So if you're a fellow TTC-er, I know where you are coming from and you can reach out to us and share your story. I love being able to relate to others and while we are finally expecting, I've been where you are and I've felt every emotion you are feeling.

It's okay to not be okay right now, just know it'll all be okay eventually.
