It feels surreal to be so close to a reality that has felt so impossibly far away for so long, and one of the difficult parts about IVF and pregnancy after loss is the lingering cloud of fear that anything could go wrong at any moment. But I made it here, and I have just 8 weeks until I meet Space Baby. I won’t ever be pregnant again, and I don’t want to look back on this chapter and realize that I missed out on all the beautiful, joyful parts of preparing to welcome a new baby. So this weekend, at a ripe 32 weeks, I’m finally clearing out the guest room and starting a proper nursery. I’m going to pick out furniture. I’m going to buy baby supplies and gear that I haven’t looked at in a decade. I’m going to let myself pick up clothes! And I’m going to give myself the gift of enjoying every moment of anticipation for these final 8 weeks until she’s in my arms. 💖 #ivfjourney #ivfpregnancy #pregnancyafterloss
