I see so many women, not just on here, focusing on the negative in life. It may be the hormones but I want to express how happy life has made me by giving my another chance to be a mother. I'm so happy to see the hcg progression on the hpts and to feel the symptoms of pregnancy so strongly. Every ache, twinge, pain, and trip to the bathroom bring a smile to my face bc it means our bean is nestled safe and sound and I can't wait to see him/her in the u/s in a few weeks. Makes me emotional just typing this, but dealing with loss after loss as we have makes the possibility of this beautiful rainbow that much sweeter to imagine.
@jana.bear, I'm sorry for your losses. And congratulations on your lil boy!
My first pregnancy was a disaster and so tramautic. And after that I had several losses and battled infertility. I was soul crushing. I still struggle with negativity and self worth. But my baby makes the struggle worth it. I wouldn't appreciate him as much as I do if I hadn't struggled.
Amen! I've had several losses as well and this time I have such strong symptoms but I'm so thankful for them!
