If You or Someone You Love...

As a woman who has struggled/is struggling with infertility I can attest to how hard it is to be a woman who is worried about having children as well as how difficult it is to be in the position of those who love and want to support that person.  At this point I don't really feel like I am struggling...I am very grateful for my children and know that they are both miracles!  But...I know other women who are struggling with infertility.  It is a very painful place to be.  The other day I read a blog post that I thought was totally awesome.  It is written by a woman who has faced infertility.  She is very frank with how she felt during the period before she had children (she and her husband have adopted twice now) and it always helps to know that there are other people who have felt the same way that you feel/have felt.  But my favorite part of the post is directed to people who have friends and loved ones who are struggling with infertility.  Then she gives advise to those who are facing infertility and how to talk to/act with those who love you and are trying to give love and support.  It is a great article.  So, if you or anyone you love is struggling with infertility, direct them to this great post.  Seriously...you'll be glad you did.
