No expectations, no prejudgment. Like a butterfly flies from it's cocoon into a fresh new beginning, don't let your past be your tour guide.

I am doing my best to feel optimistic and calm. This month was not my month. Perhaps next month will be my month. I went back in today. Parking in the same spot, walking the same halls, smiling at the nurses who have become my silent cheerleaders, trying to ignore the sympathetic look from the receptionist…… I know my Doctor’s office like my own home. I never imagined that this journey would have taken this long. I wouldn’t have imagined that this journey was going to claim so much of my sanity. I have not carried myself with much grace these past three years.
I feel like a fractured ping ball, in a game that has only one functioning paddle left and no right foot. Its almost comical if I think about it. If I think about the person I was prior to this “situation.” I am certainly not her any more. If I am, she is sleeping quietly and patiently waiting to remerge once the crazy has blown over.
I have often felt like a time bomb, a grenade with a faulty pin. I kept hoping someone would see me breaking and stop it from happening. But no one is going to save me from this. The white horse is going to remain rider-less, that is until I decide to stop drowning.
I am making a pledge to myself. A pledge to stop this never ending circle of the drain that has become me.


Tomorrow is a new day, and this month may be my month.
 
WOW!!!

I am sending baby dust your way! I have been at this for 7 months and today was a bad day. Feeling very sorry for myself! I do not feel like I am handling myself with much grace either lately.

Reading what you wrote gave me hope for tomorrow! You are right, tomorrow is a new day and I will not give up in this until they force those strips from my hands!

Good luck and stay positive!
 
So sorry you are feeling like this. It has been a rough road for you it looks like. What can you do to get through this difficult time: self pampering things, counseling if you haven't yet or a good book on dealing with infertility? I know you didn't ask for advice but I have found these things helpful.

Thank you. Yes it has been difficult but I am starting to handle it better. It only took 3 years to find some peace of mind.
 
I am only on month two of TTC but I am sending lots of positive energy and thoughts your way. This community here is what makes me optimistic about going through this journey. No matter what happens, there are wonderful people out there like you to help get me through. Thinking of you today!
