Journal Entry for January 21, 2009 Mood
Wednesday, January 21, 2009
lately i feel very torn between moving forward with treatments for my infertility or just continuing the old fashioned way.  i have strong feelings i won't be a person that will get pregnant easily.  but i know if there is a way for me to become pregnant and have a baby i will find it.  these meds i am on helps to numb the feelings of sadness that i am not out shopping for a crib or planning a baby shower, it numbs the feelings of why not me.  why did God choose me to go through this.  why did God make my life be on this road???  i am just trying to decide when to meet with the RE again.  and i am trying to figure out if i am ready for the results of more fertility treatments.  can i take more disappoinment?  i just need more time i think.  my thoughts are all over sometimes.  i just need to feel good about trying to concieve again......

    Don't give up. You were pg twice so you can get pg and it will happen again. I would ask the RE for recurrent pregnancy loss bloodwork to check for clotting and similar. I've had 3 miscarriages and I had this bloodwork done after the 2nd. There were a few issues w my blood and I got meds for it. We also had to do IVF w PGD to weed out poor quality eggs. But I'm now 34 w pg so it all really helped. These problems do not mean that God hates you ot that you are not meant to have kids. In this life someone has harder time than others in some area like love, kids, job, health. These are just obstacles on your road that you CAN overcome, and in doing so you will learn how strong and dedicated you are. And this child, when it comes to you, will be so much more loved for all the trouble you had getting it.

    You'll know when the right time for you to start again. Maybe you just need a little more time relaxing before you get back into it. I'm thinking of you and praying for you.

    I think you should take the time that you need before starting again. You will be a mother but you want to try when you are in a good place. I think Kaja2008 makes a good point - maybe some additional testing would be helpful. Keep taking care of yourself - listen to what you need - you are on the right track!

    I think taking a break may be good for you. Even a few months can be so helpful in getting back to your self. Dont give up, your dreams of becoming a Mom will definitely happen some day! xoxo

    I am reading a really good book that helps answer the "why is this happening?", it's called The Shack. The main character experiences a horrible tragedy and also questions God and why him, so I think it's really theraputic...plus I actually did go to counseling to help deal w/ some of the pain and sadness. It helped tons!

    I think you are facing a tough decision right now but you will know what's the right decision when you come to it. Good luck and I hope you find the answers you are looking for soon!
