You don't know what hard work is until your a mom

The title was of a bumper sticker someone seen and I wanted to address it.

I don't want to take away from this because I am 120% sure there is hard work being a mom. I just want you to see the other side. Those who want to be mom's and are not. It takes a lot of hard work going through infertility. You have to work hard to save the money needed to go to the specialist. You spend all your time eating the right stuff, trying every wives tail to make it work, researching everything you can about all the different medications and procedures, all the success stories hoping you will be the next success story. Then after all the medications and procedures you try and are unsuccessful you go through a grieving process each time. I think about all the procedures and all the medications and all the time spent the hardest part is when that pregnancy test is negative. I don't think you can ever get over that feeling. Month after month feeling the loss of a baby.

I am so happy for those of you who become moms and I know you have been through a lot during pregnancy and all the work you have done through their childhood. I just don't want anyone to forget the one's who are going through infertility.
