It is a grief process.

just be patient with me.

2.I am thankful to know that I may be able to carry at all.

Up until this point, I did not know that it would be possible.

Now I have hope.

But I also have the pressure and stress of not missing my very small window.

I am not going to miss this opportunity.

3.I am learning a lot.

Since being given this news, I am constantly researching.

Researching my diagnosis of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

Researching the many avenues for conceiving a child as a woman in a Queer relationship.

4.I do not need your input if your input is negative/judgmental/inappropriately critical.

A lot is changing in my life.

I have always wanted kids.

That includes having a loving family.

That includes having a successful career.

That includes continuing my education.

That includes making a home.

That includes having a passionate life.

And that includes setting the best example for my future children as I can, starting now.
