I am 35 years old, living with stage IV Endometriosis, possibly adenomyosis and struggled with infertility for almost 4 years. I also struggled with PPD and now struggle with PMDD. I am a mother to a son that was born at 18 weeks and too precious for this earth; and now a mother to a son born in August 2011. By journaling here, I hope to benefit both for myself and for others that are dealing with this disease and fertility struggles. Thanks for visiting!

Could have been...

First of all, things seem to be okay with the GI issues. Waiting on the labwork for any definite celebration, but, things are moving foward with the cycle. :) Thanks for the comments!

Today, instead of making excited phone calls and rushing to the hospital, we are left picking up the pieces of our hearts and wondering what life what have been...could have been...right now. Today was my estimated due date with Wyatt. We wish we could be celebrating right now. To hold our son. To hear him cry, feel his warm, lively body. What we wouldn't give. We don't regret our time with him though and feel so blessed we were given the chance to hold him, to see him, to love him.

We miss Wyatt so much. My heart aches for him and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think or speak of him. We wish today, this week, this month could have been so different for us. We will always remember and love you Wyatt. Always. Thank you for touching our lives and letting us feel the love of a mother and father.

Love you baby boy!!!

I am happy to here things are a go!

The due date, it is either the most exciting day that you spend 9 months waiting for or the most dreaded day. I am hoping that once this day is over we are able to move forward and have a little peace; though I know this pain and longing will never go away.

I am thinking about you today.

Thinking of you all the time and wondering how you are doing. I am sorry that Wyatt spent such little time with you. I wish the day was a joyfull occasion, rather than a sad one.

I just wanted to wish you luck with your upcoming FET and send you lots of prayers during this difficult time. I came across your blog over a year ago and it has given me so much strength and comfort. You are such a strong woman!

You even inspired me to blog about my feelings and this crazy journey.

Best wishes!

May God bless you and reassure you that Wyatt is at his ultimate home, in heaven with God. He would not have made it there without his parents. I am sure he is looking down and smiling at you both, with all his love for his parents!
