I've finally made that monumental step, the one that allows me to post instead of lurking and dreaming. My husband and I, we are finally trying to conceive.
I had given up all hope that this day would ever come and resentment took up residence in our home and almost took over my heart. Trying for a child just so I wouldn't leave wasn't what I wanted. I would sooner do things on my own.
I can't say what changed his mind. I don't know that he even knows other than that his heart has opened. After more than ten years together my husband and I are trying to conceive. We are trying to have a baby. He wants to have a child. With me. We are doing this together. Hoping and dreaming. I've been shedding tears of joy for almost a week now.
This will be my husband's first and my second child. My first, my darling young son, was a surprise. I was a single teen mom before MTV made them famous and he is now a teen himself. He's excited too, having wanted a sibling for as long as he's been able to ask for one.
My ten year wait makes two weeks feel like nothing. I'm counting down the days to when I can take that first EPT. Maybe we will get lucky, maybe we will have to try again. Either way.. We're here and we're trying.
