I entered motherhood with a lot of expectations: I expected it to be life changing, I expected an identity shift, and I expected it to be hard. What I never anticipated were the ‘hows.’ I thought to myself, ‘How will I find the strength to go through this?’

Setting boundaries
Most people don’t realize they’re being hurtful when they say or ask insensitive things. So, use those situations to set boundaries. You can use these examples to get your gears turning.
When they say…
“When are
you having kids?”
You say…
Stop asking this. You don’t know if I’ve been trying for a while or the problems I may be facing. Frankly, it’s no one’s business. Instead, let me come to you with that news.
When they say…
“Just relax. Stress makes it harder to get pregnant!”
You say…
Please stop saying this. No one likes being told to “relax”; it’s not helpful. Instead of saying it, help me DO it by offering to hang out or go for dinner, or just by letting me vent.
When they say…
“Can’t you just adopt?”
You say…
My journey is personal. You have no idea the avenues I’ve explored so far. There are lots of different options like IUI, IVF, surrogacy, and yes, adoption…but maybe we just aren’t there yet.
2021 was the year that changed everything. It started with a pregnancy that resulted in a loss of my one and only embryo from a clinic that didn’t support me, and it ended at a new clinic with a phenomenal doctor and 5 genetically normal frozen embryos. There are no guarantees, but there is always hope.
