Meet the reason l've not posted an update in a while.
On month 12 of our TTC journey. We finally got that positive that seems to be sticking. Todays scan (6 weeks) showed a strong heartbeat ♥️ so chances of miscarriage are tiny now 🙈
have been tired and nauseous as hell for weeks! So unfortunately my writing took a hit. I will get some updates out in the coming weeks but wanted to share the happy news with you all 🥹

Feeling like a silly little girl.
I wonder who else my age feels like this. I'm 28 now and I feel like im at a weird age to be almost starring IVF and going through unexplained infertility.
I think its a bit of a mash between 2 different lives I have.
On one hand i have plenty of friends who had kids young, either in their late teens, their early twenties or now at the same time as me trying to get pregnant. These friends either aren't in employment or are in "lower paid" jobs as awful as that sounds its true in this case. These are the people I compare myself with the most, feeling like I'm falling behind, by the time I have kids of my own their kids will be in primary or high school and won't have a single thing in common with my kids. They won't be friends. As a woman (and even men think this I know my husband does!) You have this image in your head of your kids and your closest friends kids hanging out and being best friends too.
On the other hand, I work in a role (in which I feel is much bigger than I am and often feel out of my depth!) Where people are very career driven, these people went to uni, want to progress in their field and kids are not high on their agenda, or those who have kids they had them in their 30s once they got where they wanted in their job. I dont feel like these people understand my pain. Make it seem like I've got plenty of time to have kids.
But thays not how I wanted my timeline to go. I wanted 2 kids and I didn't want to be an older mum. I have reasons for both.
I wanted to have more than one as both me and my husband are only children, it's tough and it's really tough when you have to deal with the death of a parent.
I didnt want us to be older parents because I don't want my children to be in their 20s/30s when I die. As morbid as that sounds my husband lost his dad unexpectedly at the age of 26 from natural causes. His dad had just turned 60. I want our children to have as much time as possible with us and vice versa.
I just feel like when I told my manager about the IVF which is approaching I don't think she understood my pain very well. She understood the process as she had a friend who went through IVF but she was in her 30s.
Unexplained infertility is weird too because there's nothing wrong (allegedly) so it's like... Well.... it might still happen. Statistically I don't think it will, the older we get the smaller our chances are.
I'm just having a moment. Today is officially 2years since we started and I know that's not long compared to others but it's a significant milestone in the TTC world. I'm now just eagerly awaiting our next fertility appointment. I haven't ovulatd yet and I should have but I'm not having any symptoms. Even though I experienced some random spotting 2 days ago (I thought this was ovulation spotting) but then today I came across feeling unwell, I felt dizzy, my back was hurting, I felt sickly I thought I was going to pass out. Im glad I was able to get some fresh air. So obviously my first thoughts are "omg what If I'm actually pregnant! What if my weird period was actually implantation bleeding even though it had clots and actually resembled a period eventually" even though I did take a test after my period "just in case" and it was very negative.

Decided I’m going to do something as a memorial for my angel babies. Since there is no grave to visit I think I may get a snow globe (I collect them and they are my favorite) in memory of them. It’s something to be able to look at when I feel sad but also something that I love so I’m hoping that helps. Also called psych and got an appt for Tuesday… battling depression sucks but hopefully an increase in my meds will help. Also I was looking through my old pics and I came across the picture of the sac (yes I know that sounds gross but I was scared when I passed it and wanted to show my dr) and I just realized I can see the shape of my little babe (#2). I feel so nauseous. I wish I saw this before. I think I was so upset I couldn’t even process it all before. But yup that’s hitting my heart hard. Send good vibes bc this girl is going through hell over here

Picked up some exciting things from the pharmacy today…
I’ve lost a ton of weight, and I’m seeing a lot of improvement in PCOS symptoms (hell yeah!) so we just want to see where my body is right now.
Fingers crossed, trust, and baby dust!
(images cropped for privacy, if you know me IRL we aren’t announcing this and I want it to be as low-key as possible so please don’t bring it up ♥️)

I'll be there 👼🏽
Tumblr media
Daddy, please don't look so sad,
mama please don't cry
Cause I am in the arms of Allah
and He sings me lullabies.
Please, try not to question God,
Don't think he is unkind
Don't think He sent me to you,
and then He changed his mind.
You see, I am a special child,
and I'm needed up above
I'm the special gift you gave Him,
the product of your love,
I'll always be there with you
and watch the sky at night,
Find the brightest star that's gleaming
That's my halo's brilliant light.
You'll see me in the morning frost.
that mists your window pane,
Thats me in the summer showers
I'll be dancing in the rain.
When you feel a little breeze
from a gentle wind that blows
That's me I'll be there,
planting a kiss on your nose.
When you see a child playing.
and your heart feels a little tug.
That's me I'll be there giving your heart a hug
So Daddy. please don't look so sad, Mama don't you cry.
I'm in the arms of Allah and He sings me lullabies.

The hardest part of infertility for me is the desire. The desire to kiss those tiny little fingers and toes. The desire to rock a sleepy baby to sleep. The desire to have something so small need you.

I'm tired...
Of putting on this facade every day.
Of being the happy, giddy, excitable woman.
Of faking how I feel every single day.
Of pushing down all the feelings I feel and to pretend everythings OK.
Of feeling like our life together isn't complete yet.
Of feeling shame, because I should be grateful for what I do have.
Of people complaining about a life I dream about.
I want to shout...
I'm not OK.
There's emptiness inside of me.
Why can't I have what everyone else has?
Life isn't fair.
What if I can never have my own children
What if I never experience pregnancy
Am I being punished?

Well we are trying again next month. I had a feeling we weren’t pregnant just cause the symptoms were not there but today confirmed it. I had some cramping and I just knew. At least my dr put in two rounds last time so I can get my prescription refilled. Instead of waiting till Monday and praying they have it in stock.

Congrats!!
If this is too much or too forward, I get it.
I wanted to tell you that as someone who has struggled with infertility and has made the decision to not continue on my fertility journey, nothing makes my heart sing more than seeing someone who worked so hard get to become a mama ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Background: my husband and I tried for years, even bought the house with all the bedrooms and did everything we thought was right. We may have made the decision to no longer pursue parenthood, but I celebrate and cheer for every person who crosses the finish line that we just weren't meant to.
Silver lining - all those bedrooms? They're safe places for friends and family, and perfect for our growing group of special cats (hard-to-house & sick kitties deserve a home, too!).
Congrats again and thank you for sharing your amazing news!
Awe, thank you hunny! ♥️
I’m sorry it didn’t happen for you and your husband. It has definitely been a difficult journey for my husband and I.
We had just started seeking fertility help and then we fell! Typical eh? 😂
We found out the day we picked up our new ‘family’ car. It feels to me like baby was saying ‘ah you got the car to fit me and my stuff in… I’ll make an appearance now 🥹’
We’re so happy! Seeing them in that scan. Even if to everyone else it just looks like a white Bean. We saw that lil Bean’s heart thumping away and it was magical ♥️
Good for you for being so supportive and happy for everyone else! I was finding it hard towards the end. Feeling like everyone else was getting pregnant and I wasn’t. Finding it so unfair. But it worked out in the end 🙈
