Wahooo!!! Here's to hoping that this month is the month. It's funny - when this whole journey started almost two years ago, I used to watch tons of pregnancy announcement videos. I fantasized about the day that I would also be able to create a pregnancy announcement. In fact, I remember us talking about how we planned to surprise our hubbies. Today, I started watching these videos again and I just sat there and cried and cried out of happiness. The difference this time is that I specifically searched for videos of couples who had been LTTTC, instead. I sat that crying out of happiness for them and although I realize that I (and possibly we) might still have a bit to go before we see our unicorn line, I know that we aren't alone in this - and that is encouraging. Yes, I'm pissed beyond belief many days, and bitter, but for the most part, I realize that it will happen even if it means adopting a baby one day.
My husband and I talked about how sad it is that when we do finally conceive, my son, who is nine, will not have the relationship with his brother or sister that many kids have because of the age difference. Even if we were to conceive today, my son will be eighteen by the time our little one is my sons age. This is a hard concept. I remember feeling light-years away from my sister who was only five years younger than me. He is still begging me for a brother or sister though.
Have you guys seen the movie Storks? If not, check out the trailer. My son is basically the equivalent of that little boy. It's heart wrenching. I want nothing more than to give him that happiness and if I give up now, it will never happen.
Sorry for my rant, lol I'm feeling emotional.
