AUTHOR: ANGELTIPTON | | | After having lost 3 babies, (See D&C..How long will it take) I had given up. I had no problem getting preg., that was the easy part for me, I couldn't carry full-term and deliver a healthy baby. I could see a baby and start crying. I would see children that were the age that my children would have been and burst into tears. People didn't understand. I couldn't go through this again. We were desperatly trying NOT to get preg. and at 37, I was preg. again. Frightened, scared, mad, sad, glad, happy, upset.....all of the emotions wrapped up. I would be 38 when the baby was born. How could this happen to me? Well, as it turned out, I now have a wonderful 18+ month old who is the light of my life. She was 7 weeks early, but healthy. Eleven years is a long time to wait, but she is worth every moment of waiting and every tear (gallons) that I've shed.
I know it can be depressing, but, you never know. Like someone else said in another post, when you stop trying, sometimes it just happens.
I wish all of you, all the luck in the world and if I could wave a magic wand I would, so that all of the people in the world could have the children that they so desire. It's hard to understand and be happy for people that can just get preg. on the drop of a dime and 40 weeks later have a precious little one. They just don't understand how lucky they are. Just know that you are not alone. There are alot of other couples in the same situation as you.
Keep you chin up, | |  | |
