Infertility Veterans

No matter what it can be a long hard journey

Today I found out that a dear friend, who has 2 children already and was pregnant with her 3rd, found out at almost 20 weeks that there is no heartbeat. It actually made me realize that no matter where someone is in this process it never gets easier. Doesn't matter how easy it was for her to get pregnant and how hard it is for me, it is a long journey. 

I know that she is fortunate to have 2 children already, but I really reflected on how it must feel. I have never had the chance to even  for 1 day say that I was pregnant so I cannot understand that, but I do understand how much those hormones mess me up and hard it all can be. I cannot imagine what anyone on this board including her goes through with 20 weeks of hormones and now to have to deliver and say goodbye. It made me have a very heavy heart for anyone that has had to endure this as well as her. 

It really helped me to remember how much of a miracle this whole process is and then put in IF problems on top of that and you realize wow, its a long hard road.  

Thinking of her and all the women who have ever suffered any sort of loss and for all of us women dealing with this terrible disease of Infertility!
