My heart aches for you, and I pray for you often. It's hard not to lose yourself in the anger and grief, and I don't blame you for feeling the way that you do. I know this road is not easy, and I pray that your prayers are answered soon. I hope that you are able to find support from those you know IRL and those online. No one deserves to endure this pain and heartache, but to feel like you're all alone is just so heartbreaking! You've always got me as your friend, cheerleader and hope-keeper! When you just can't think beyond today, I will be holding out hope that your prayers will be answered!!!Jannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09577220349572204264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8532551218145298687.post-79481895966435954082010-06-28T20:00:42.174-05:002010-06-28T20:00:42.174-05:00I know I have never walked in your shoes, but I ha...I know I have never walked in your shoes, but I have genuinely thought of and prayed for you throughout all of this.

I told you about was a God send for me. Anytime you want to talk give me a shout. Just that even though we don't talk regularly your on my mind! Our history is so similar. My balloon surgery took place 5 months before my prayer was answered through ivf assistance. My advice is to never give up on Gods promise unless He gives you a peace in your heart to do so.Kaceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382141800146841783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8532551218145298687.post-64206098887921085592010-06-28T18:54:55.463-05:002010-06-28T18:54:55.463-05:00I'm sure I'm one of those people you want ...I'm sure I'm one of those people you want to STFU because I haven't walked in your shoes and I have a child.

I haven't expereienced the loss of babies like you have related to infertility, but I did experience infertility for 2 1/2 l-o-n-g years! I was like you, the only one without kids. I got really depressed and felt super alone...like you feel. People meant well, but their words were SO hurtful. "Just don't think about it." or "Just when you least expect it, it will happen." I wanted to say, "Go sell crazy some place else. We're all stocked up here!" <br /><br />I just gave birth to our miracle baby in April. Anyway, I was actually hiking today (trying to shed some baby lbs.) and praying for the girls I know or whose blogs I follow who don't have babies yet...including you ironically. SO, all I want to say is that I know the pain of infertility. It cut me to the bone and I'm be forever changed. AND having my miracle doesn't stop me from thinking of those without. In fact, my joy also saddens me that others can't/don't know this joy. My dr. said the best thing to me about a friend of mine that was also his patient that lost her son by way of stillbirth. "Don't not call or stay in touch." So I haven't forgotten that pain. Your current pain. I'm praying!<br />Sarahsjeffersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17133400986095459890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8532551218145298687.post-58019750429030091852010-06-28T18:23:26.280-05:002010-06-28T18:23:26.280-05:00I have no words for your pain.

LOL), I'm going to offer my two cents. If you're not prepared to keep reading, then stop right here.<br /><br /><br />You have held out hope longer than most could have. I have heard you question a few (many?) times about when is it time to quit. I think you may be teetering on that point now. Every time you mention it it's stronger, and I honestly feel like you're getting close to giving up. Strike that, not giving up. I don't know what the proper term would be, but it's not giving up. I know you're recent surgery has shed new light and as long as Dr. T. has hope, I will keep hoping right along with him. But maybe it's time for a serious chat with him about his honest opinion on you having success with another IUI. And if that isn't a realistic option, what will it take to make the finances work for IVF? <br /><br />If you want to know if it's truly time to stop, take a break for a few months and see how that makes you feel. If you can't stomach the thought of stopping even for that short amount of time, then you know you're not ready to stop trying.<br /><br />You may want me to STFU because I have EJ, but you asked for opinions, and I think mine is still valid even though I'm a mother. I'm one of your biggest cheerleaders...I've seen you with your niece and nephew and I know you'd be a fantastic mom. I also don't want you to lose "you" in all of this and I'm sure your big guy would agree with me on that.<br /><br />As I've said for months, I will keep out hope as long as you need it, but I will also support your decision if you go the other way.Maria (MKC101103)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14960882099749643440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8532551218145298687.post-28637829029440725542010-06-28T07:53:01.797-05:002010-06-28T07:53:01.797-05:00Just want to let ou know I am thinking about you a...Just want to let ou know I am thinking about you and sending you ((hugs))Babystepshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887687246851640547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8532551218145298687.post-33149905833129907432010-06-28T07:11:16.433-05:002010-06-28T07:11:16.433-05:00I feel like some people think that I am so bitter,...I feel like some people think that I am so bitter, so they have no choice but to distance themselves. Instead of "giving me space", they should ask me what is going on and how I am. When I talk about things going on in my head, I either realize that I'm not as sad as I sometimes feel, OR, it just helps to get my thoughts out to someone who'll listen and then know. <br /><br />So while I write about myself here, I just want you to know that I understand where you're coming from. Some people think that because they haven't been through what you have been through, they cannot possibly understand. Well, the fact is that they don't have to understand. They just have to be human. Everyone should kow how to be human.Wifezzillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13488747777549305216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8532551218145298687.post-91326756485282345552010-06-28T05:46:57.006-05:002010-06-28T05:46:57.006-05:00Infertility makes you feel so alone.

It makes you just want to die inside, to take away the hurt. We go through so much and still it is no guarantee of any happy ending. <br /><br />I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. You are a strong woman. You are a woman who knows what she wants and has a beautiful dream. I hope that is comes true someday soon.<br /><br />*NestingAway*Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03618868375878476153noreply@blogger.com
