WELCOME TO EVERY NEGATIVE REMINDER           

Hello and welcome to my blog—a space dedicated to sharing my deeply personal journey with infertility. After silently enduring this struggle for many years, I decided it was time to open up. My hope is that by sharing my story, I can offer encouragement to others facing similar challenges—or perhaps, through writing, find a sense of healing for myself. I am a 37-year-old wife and mother, blessed to have a wonderful family. My husband and I are about to celebrate our 11th wedding anniversary this February, a milestone that fills me with gratitude. I’m also a proud stay-at-home mom to an incredible 16-year-old son, who brings so much joy and light into my life. In April 2017, I experienced a heartbreaking loss early in my pregnancy, at just 5 weeks. That loss marked me deeply, and every day since, I’ve prayed for our little miracle. I believe with all my heart that the pain and challenges along the way will be worth it when I finally get to hold that tiny baby in my arms. This blog serves as my outlet—a place to document my personal journey with infertility, to process the highs and lows, and to find hope even in the hardest moments. Join me as I navigate this path, sharing my experiences and seeking strength in every step of the way. Together, we can find solace and encouragement, one story at a time.

 Along The Way

I want to share a little about my TTC (trying to conceive) journey. The odds of getting pregnant and carrying to full term are not in my favor. I have a few reproductive issues that can affect my chances of having a child. No, it's not impossible, because if you believe in God, you know nothing is impossible with him! I have been diagnosed with Uterine Fibroids. They’re common, and don’t usually stop you from getting pregnant. But, they may boost the odds of infertility, miscarriage, or other pregnancy related problems for some women. Not only do I have relatively small, multiple uterine fibroids, but I also do not ovulate regularly each month. I have Anovulatory Cycles, a lot of the time! My age is also a concerning factor. I am almost 38. Fertility starts to decline around the age of 30, and after 35, it is reported to decline at a rapid rate! Now, you may be wondering - is my husband infertile, and where he stands with his fertility? My husband has a couple of his own health issues that could affect our chances. One small detail could be his age! My blog is not so much about struggling with infertility as a couple, but to share some of the emotions attached to infertility (sadness, frustration, isolation, tearfulness, inadequacy, guilt, anger and depression). Things that I face in my own struggles with TTC. I am still trying to conquer all these emotions and more. But, I am managing to take it one day at a time, and I feel I'm making progress!
