Pregnancy Jitters...Are you pregnant finally?

So you have been trying, some for months others for years. You know the pain of wanting but not having, the many times you took gauging your ovulation, taking your temperature, looking at your cervical mucus...You no longer enjoy sex because pregnancy is so much on your mind, you have to schedule every sexual episode. Is your partner happy? Maybe he is, maybe he is showing all the support he can, but frustrated and cannot show it or share what he is feeling because he is still thinking of you.

You are on every forum and blog page reading and reading. Don't we need that? Who is feeling what and how and when? Who have success with our conditions? Maybe you should stop read, you tell yourself, but can you? It helps us going and hoping and trusting. It will soon be our turn.

No one really knows what we go through except they have gone through it themselves. Are you pregnant this month? You don't know but like the many times before you hope and you trust. You know your body more than ever before but still it tricks you. You document every change, every new and old symptom, but still there is not enough information to understand. You feel pregnant. Your boobs are heavy and swollen down to their nipples, there is cramping, nauseousness, headaches, metallic taste in mouth, dizziness...you know all the symptoms by heart and you feel them too, but your period is due in weeks...You try to wait, but your mind would not allow you so you tested. How much of your money has been eaten up in pregnancy tests only to see the BFN...You know you should wait, but how can you when you want it so badly. And then the day come when you should really test, but to your disappoint so have your period. You cry and you cry, like all the other months you have cried. Who will find a solution and when?

Uterus issues cost us so much and people may never understand. It is not just the financial cost, but the emotional burden. The very same stress that we should not have, is caused by us as we become depressed by our situations. Today I urge us ladies, let us continue to show our support for each other and every cause involving our uterus. Let us pray one for another and let us maintain faith that we will soon be granted the desires of our hearts. Baby dust to all!!!!

  1. We go through so much. Sometimes we sit and cry and cry and cry.

    1. But we are also strong because we are still here praying and trusting and coping.
