Being Strong.

Being Strong.

Each day you give your energy away and use the remnants to take care of yourself last. Yet, despite all that you give, you still feel like most days you're failing. Everything has compounded and just when you feel like you've met your breaking point, you find a way to manage. You're caught between knowing what happens if you keep going like this and the fear of what happens if you don’t. I see you.

It's strange going from the concept of absolutely don't get pregnant to the notion of ok, we waited, we planned (like everyone said). Now was as good of a time as any and then nothing happens. Nada. Zip, zilch. Absolutely, NOTHING. Although, that didn't stop me from thinking with every possible chance that we were in fact pregnant. Next thing you know months go by and then the months turn into a whole year. All without a sign that anything was changing, except our patience and growing concern. Just like many others, I had assumed this wouldn't happen to us.
