• The first portion of my blog entries are pieces of our personal life that I kept record of during our journey struggling with infertility. Once I learned our journey was going to be complicated, I started writing about it to myself, to help vent and de-stress. After awhile of writing privately, I decided to share our story, in hopes it would reach out to other women that may be struggling with similar issues. That is why this blog is special to me. It gave me the courage to finally open up and touch the hearts of other women. All while doing something I always knew I liked but never knew how much I loved it...writing.

 

• I understand that many women struggle with infertility and reading others stories was always a helpful coping method for me. Those that struggle with infertility, don't be afraid to tell your story and create awareness. It can help so many women out there by letting them know, you are not alone. It is also educating for those who do not understand how difficult this struggle is, for future support.

• Blogs entries after, "The Journey is Just Beginning," dive into this crazy life

since our fertility struggles and what it continues to throw at us. I have a whole new outlook on life, the meaning of life, what makes me happy, what DOESN'T make me happy, what I want for my daughter, what I want and need out of my marriage. Life is too short to be living it unhappy. We spent three years living in misery as we struggled with infertility. I feel like a totally different person now, in more ways than one. I don't ever want to go back to that dark place I was in. My daughter has brought so much happiness back into my life, that I am forever grateful for.

 

There is still a lot about life that I am trying to figure out...mostly for me, a woman trying to make a difference. I am learning more and more as each day passes.

How do you truly live life to the fullest?
