The last 6 months of this IVF journey have probably been the most difficult chapter in my life— I don’t know that I’ve ever been more emotionally, physically, or spiritually drained. But I’ve also never been more sure of something. There’s a vision board I’ve always had for my life, and I intend to live out that reality. I can accept that it might not be on the timeline I hoped or the specific way I imagined, but I refuse to accept that any of my dreams aren’t meant for me. Side note: I think this gold-dipped rose (the real rose is under there!) is the single most perfect and beautiful gift to represent the fragility & strength of this journey. It is my new prized possession. Gearing up for another retrieval cycle next month, back on this rollercoaster. Forever an optimist. 🤍🤍🤍🤍 #ivf #ivfjourney #ivfcommunity #infertility #ttcjourney #pregnancyloss #eggretrieval
