"I am at a point where in order to take care of my living children to the best of my ability, I have to give up the possibility of bearing any more. There is a definite grief that comes with that."
Your story isn't mine, but, goodness, do we have overlap. Most recent pregnancy ended in pPROM the day after we were advised to "discontinue the pregnancy" for the sake of my safety. So here we are now, having said goodbye to another baby (12 in heaven — hyperfertile, with a body not suited for carrying to term) and discerning to TTA indefinitely. We are of so grateful and blessed by the ones we got to keep. But our hearts still ache for the ones we have had to give back.
Thank you for sharing this. Your work encourages me to keep being vulnerable about infertility for the sake of my own healing and because it helps others know they are not alone. You are in my prayers.
That knowledge we aren't alone is sometime all we have and it can be everything. Keep working! Prayers for you! Vulnerability is a beautiful gift, but it's also a treasure to guard.
This is so profound. Thank you for sharing your heart. So sorry you’re going through it…but also your perspective on it is so inspiring. 💜 God bless you.
