resonates with me
Yes, we have all experienced so many losses on our paths to motherhood (and fatherhood!). I agree it makes us more impatient, disbelieving, hesitant to throw our hearts into it. For sure, some agency workers have no idea how painful it is to wait, or even to allow ourselves to feel hopeful.
I told my therapist that even after my referral, I have trouble really believing and putting my heart outward. She was really reassuring that it's OK after so many losses to hesitate.
There is no particular way we "should" feel. However we feel is right for us.
May we all find joy at the end of the road.
