One more thing
There was one point I had wanted to make yesterday that I left out. I fully recognize that PAIL could and will be hurtful to those who are still in the trenches of ttc. I considered that joining it could be hurtful to my readers in the same way that me posting ultrasounds or belly photos or adding a pregnancy ticker to my blog could create feelings of jealousy or envy. I understand all of that. Trust me. I've been there. I wish it didn't have to hurt, just like I wish we could all get knocked up on the first try. Infertility sucks, no matter how you look at it.

Remember you make the choices that feel best for you. It is your blog and you have the right to put here whatever you so choose.
ReplyDeleteOh and I was hoping to see belly pictures and ultrasounds.
That pretty much sums it all up perfectly. IF is hurtful no matter where you are in your journey....but this community is one in which no one intends to be hurtful. We are all an inspiration and offer hope for the future.
ReplyDeleteCongrats again on your pregnancy and we wish you the very best on your journey, I can't wait to see those ultrasound pics and belly pics....I missed out on those and am very sad I didn't do that.
What it comes down to, is that this is your blog. It was meant not just as a place to talk about pain and hurt but also a place to talk about Violetta. She/he is who you have been waiting to share. Now you have V in your belly and as much as it might make people envious or ache...the fact that you have finally reached your goal is the main point. You should want to continue sharing this journey with us.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine I would ever expect to see you to your BFP only to ignore the rest of your incomplete path to parenthood. You still need us and I intend to be there. Pregnant belly, ultrasounds...and all. Yes, it can be a reminder of what I don't have anymore, but as someone who has been rooting for you from the beginning, I won't abandon you.
Our blogs should be able to morph in any way they need to. I continued on with mine through 20 weeks and am so glad I did.
This isn't really a comment about PAIL as much as one about you and me. Congrats hon.
Thanks my friend. That means a lot coming from you. I'm here rooting for you too, through the bitter and end and beyond.
