Things weren’t the same… life had taken a cruel turn and nothings seems going right. We (me and hubby) felt shattered; news about infertility together with some personal problems was taking toll on us.
I cried every time…
- When another period starts
- When somebody announces her pregnancy
- When I see children begging on the roads
Things weren’t the same…
- Felt the whole world is pregnant except me
- Started avoiding social events to avoid the questions from people
- Feeling very left out when friends start comparing their pregnancy or childbirth experiences
- Waking up in the middle of the night and wishing I could hear my baby crying
- Wishing I could give your parents grandchildren
- Wanted to tell friends who just turned mom “don’t crib for sleepless nights or changing nappies or feeding problems, bcoz you have something for which I long”
- Sometimes avoiding friends who are pregnant or with newborns because I just can't handle the situation at that moment
- Getting tired of people always expecting you to do things because "You don't have any kids to worry about"
“…God, Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can change, and the wisdom to know the difference."
Over the time I realized it’s perfectly fine to have any or all of these feelings, it was ideal to cry out at times, think about something positive in life and anchor on some good support.
For me, my husband was my strongest support pillar, my strength and so was I for him. Such situations makes you realize how important is your spouse for you and you for your spouse.
Well, I can’t change things which are beyond my control, but certainly make the best out of it.
