Today one of my Fertility Friends got "the news". She's pregnant!!!
I met her a few months ago through my blog as she was struggling with infertility and didn't really have anyone to talk to about it. We instantly became Fertility Friends and I've really enjoyed being a part of her journey. Being able to support someone going through what we went through is such a great feeling. I had a very supportive Fertility Friend that had gone through IVF before us and she was my rock. So to be able to pay it forward and help someone else feels so great!
When I got her message that she got the news from her Dr., I got goosebumps and the tears started. I was SO happy for her!! She did it!! I also instantly flashed back to November 22nd, 2011 - D-Day. This was the day we found out we were pregnant and I will NEVER forget it. Hard to believe, not long ago, that we were waiting for our "news" and how much has happened since then. I remember the emotions leading up to that day and even following the great news. No one can prepare you for such happiness!
I can't wait to meet her and give her a big hug. Funny how connected we are and we've never even met!
And I also look forward to being a part of her next journey, pregnancy!! Soon enough, we'll get to have playdates and reflect on all that we went through to get here. Can't wait!
How exciting and congrats to her! Isn't it crazy how connected we become to people are are truly strangers and that we met online? Infertility bonds people together, its the kind of bond that no one else understands!
ReplyDeleteIt IS crazy Belinda! The connection is so much different and unexplainable.
ReplyDeleteYou were my rock and I cannot wait until our playdate either!!
