And another one bites the dust…

Yep, another pregnancy announcement. I had a really funny feeling the person was though, so it wasn’t SO much of a shock, but still. I am trying to be happy, well, I am happy for them, but I just wish it was my turn already.  I’ve lost count of how many people have announced pregnancies in the 26 months we’ve been trying, I don’t really want to count though, it’s just too depressing.

Infertility is a heart-wrenching, faith-questioning, relationship-testing, life-altering experience. April is Infertility Awareness Month. Whether a friend, a family member, a colleague or yourself has fought through this difficult fate that MILLIONS of women are fighting day in and day out. Post this as your status if you or someone you know has struggled at a chance to be a parent.
