I can't wait to hear your preggo story and how it changes you. I struggled with infertility too for almost 2 years, and even though I remember feeling so jealous of other pg symptoms, guess what, I still had them. And it still felt crummy at times and even now as I look at my 2 boys, I forget what a blessing they are...that being said, please don't feel like you can't be you on here!! Some days of being preggo are gonna stink, some days of being a mommy are going to be hard. But that is okay, and I can't wait to go on that journey with you!!

So many of us infertiles feel so guilty complaining about being pregnant after working so hard to BE pregnant, but honestly, we have every right to complain about puking all night long just like anyone else does. Because that's part of pregnancy. And it's also part of life. Just because we all struggled to GET pregnant doesn't mean we all have super easy pregnancies... in fact, some of us even have HARDER ones, which doesn't seem fair either! :)<br /><br />Whatever you decide, I want to make sure I'm reading all about it still. :)Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13994868274673406813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33986366.post-29249503426412585102009-08-15T22:55:21.672-04:002009-08-15T22:55:21.672-04:00From one infertile to another I believe your story...From one infertile to another I believe your story is important to tell...I want to hear all of it and though I very personally never "got pregnant" I am thankful to be your friend...I want to hear it all and I don't want you to censor it...I know that for those of us who have struggled to have our babies have so much in common as Mommies. You will know what I am talking about soon. I thank God every single day that I "was" infertile...every single day!

I ...Teri, when I was TTC I had another blog I kept. I wrote in that blog for two years. I started it after we'd been TTC for 13 months, and kept it until Sean was about 8 weeks old. For me, it was JUST a TTC/infertility blog, and I just couldn't write in it anymore after we were done TTC and our child was born. It now serves as a nice journal for me to look back on, and I write in The Dew Baby regularly. You <i>could</i> consider starting a new blog if you want. But whatever you do, make sure you document your pregnancy. Every twinge, cramp, leak, vomit, and headache. Also every ultrasound, every heart rate, every kick, every baby hiccup, and every kiss you & your husband share during your pregnancy. Whether you do it here or you start a new blog, it's up to you. But write it all down. You don't believe it now -- I sure didn't -- but it'll FLY! And if you do decide to write in a new blog, I'd love to read it!!!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03675074107231603372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33986366.post-54844797915016899182009-08-15T19:14:05.254-04:002009-08-15T19:14:05.254-04:00Well, I can't really judge because I follow yo...Well, I can't really judge because I follow your blog even though I do not have fertility problems. I do know what it is like to long for a child, and that's why I've been here cheering you on. I know that you're not out of the woods yet but your story is still your story, you know? You will provide hope for those who are going through what you have gone through this far. Your true loyal followers will continue to follow you. I think if you put a disclaimer at the top of your blog for any new infertile couples who may come across your blog, they will be aware of the current situation before they decide whether to read your blog or not. I only know you in bloggyville but you have been supportive of my own situation, so I think you'll continue to be supportive to others who are still struggling.Terhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08427090425449970893noreply@blogger.com
