National Infertility Awareness Week

Since this week is National infertility awareness week I wanted to talk a little bit about the subject on my blog. I've been dealing with unexplained infertility for over 10 years and even though we've had every test in the book ran we are just one of the unlucky ones that are unexplained. We've lost 4 babies during this struggle and I've met such amazing people in the loss community. I'm thankful for the amazing support they've given and I only hope I've been as wonderful to them as they've been to me. I'm so thankful for the technology we now have that has helped me meet these amazing women online. I can only imagine how tough it was years ago before the internet for someone dealing with infertility and loss who had no one in their lives who could relate to that pain. I wanted to share a few posts that really spoke to me and I hope you read them and possibly learn a little more about how tough the struggle of infertility is. So if one day in the future you have someone in your life struggling with loss and/or infertility you will know what to say to them.
