  • Fear

    Saturday, March 29, 2008 | A Sad story

    It is strange to me how such a simple sounding four letter word can wreak so much havoc on one's life. I find that fear is at the core of so many of the emotions I feel. Of course I am sad that this cycle did not work. I am extremely upset about it. But, what is even worse is the fear I feel. The fear that we will never have a child of our own. The fear that I will never know what it is ...

  • No baby for us

    Wednesday, September 17, 2008 | A Sad story

    I got the call that our 4th IVF cycle was a failure. I am absolutely crushed right now. I can't figure out why they keep putting back good embryos and they never implant. I am heart broken and scared of what all of this means. My fear is making me angry. THIS IS JUST NOT FAIR!!! I deserve to be a Mommy. I deserve to feel a child growing inside me, to raise them and teach them all I can. ...

  • Having a hard time

    Thursday, October 30, 2008 | A Sad story

    I have been having a hard time lately with the baby/child thing. I think the holidays are making it worse. Not to mention half my friends and women I work closely with are pregnant. I am really feeling left out and sad. I usually hold my head high and truck on through but lately it is not so easy.
    Someone just walked in with their 15 month old dressed up and he looks so cute. My BF and another fr...

  • Tired of being strong!

    Monday, December 1, 2008 | A Sad story

    I can't fucking take much more! I am so tired of asking God for strength to get through things. I always get it but it is not what I want the most. I want a child! I want a family! I have not gotten that yet I always get the strength to get through all the painful shit in my life. I have survived enough. Battled through enough. Hurt enough.
    My BF called me Saturday. We talked for over a half ...

    Thursday, January 8, 2009 | A Sad story

     This is for all of you who have lost a friend at sometime in your life and think of them from time to time...

  • Heartbreaking

    Wednesday, November 11, 2009 | A Sad story

    My friend was very sick when pregnant. At one point her kidneys and liver started to shut down. She sat at work with an IV and PIC line hooked up. She lost 25 lbs in the 4+ months she was pregnant. The baby always appeared to be okay though, despite her being sick and bleeding on and off. She saw a nutritionalist because of the weight loss. She needed to either gain or maintain over a week or the...
