If someone gave me that diagnosis, I'm not sure I would keep going. You guys are such rockstars and I know your kiddos will appreciate everything you did to create them!

Obviously you got past that?<br /><br />I was once told by a doctor that it was not impossible, but extremely unlikely that we'd ever get pregnant on our own. I basically did have someone look into my future and tell me is never be pregnant. However, I finally was and finally do have babies. It's just a matter of what steps you are personally willing/able to take to get there. It's a matter of what's right for you in your pursuit. I will continue to cheer you on, no matter which road you take, around each bend and curve, and even if you decided the road comes to an end. Hugs my friend.

Right at the beginning of the new year I think I did grieve the children I'd never have...not that I knew one way or the other, but I got to a breaking point and I GRIEVED! Hard. For a week a solid week at least. And maybe I'm a complete weenie because it only took a year and a half of infertility to break me down like that. And maybe it would have (or could) happen all over again, but there was something very freeing about letting go. Basically, I guess I'm saying infertility is terribly difficult...and even though I have hope you and others have hope for you, I totally understand the sense of despair you're feeling. Just hang on. One thing is certain, life changes and sunny days are ahead...sometimes they're just hard to see through the clouds.

If you can find a way to believe IT WILL happen (which I really do think it will) then it will mean that much more to you when it does. I know...cliche' but still true. I just tend to believe that it can mean more to those of us who are putting so much effort and our faith blindly into something we can't see vs. those who it just happens to accidentally. Your parents are an inspiration and so are YOU!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07415140299306373048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6186701529721090687.post-61699031639421809402014-03-17T10:20:03.092-07:002014-03-17T10:20:03.092-07:00It's so hard not knowing...ugh. Wow 14 years ...It's so hard not knowing...ugh. Wow 14 years is a long time and I bet they thought it would never happen, but then came you :) It took my hubby's parents 7 years to have him and I think to myself I would seriously be crazy at that point! I guess all we can do is take it one day at a time.

Like you said, if we knew one way or another, at least we could move on and plan. <br /><br />Sometimes it happens at the least expected time.
