“A few years from now the spot on your chest, which throbs with pain, will be the same place where your kids will fall asleep. & at that moment, your heart will be at peace.” This made me cry as resonates so much with how much pain I was in while going through infertility. After seeing this post from @Prayhopewait I have recorded a rather impassioned podcast talking about it. The weight of the longing and the depth of my desire to be a mother when faced with year after year of nothing but negative results.

It hurt so much as the discord between life I wanted and the life I had just seemed so unfair and illogical.

In the podcast a talk about how although it feels like the only way you’re ever going to be okay is when you have your children I know that it’s possible to feel better NOW in the waiting.

I’ve decided to go live on Instagram at 8pm Tuesday evening to talk about this in more depth and how to allow yourself to feel. I’m not just feel better but really feel all of the emotions that are raging inside of you. I’m going to talk about how embracing those emotions is the key to releasing them and moving through them to a place that is far more empowered and soothing.
