Infertility sometimes feels like a continued wave of disappointment. One day, I’m sure my body is sending me signals that I’m pregnant. The next, it’s another negative pregnancy test. But I continue to weather the disappointment knowing that someday it may all have been worth it.
In this episode, I’m sharing an update on where I’m at in my personal infertility journey. I’m talking about dealing with continued disappointment, and I’m sharing how I’m taking care of my mind and body. Plus, I hope to offer some comfort to anyone else who feels alone on their own conception journey, even if they’re going through it with a partner.
