Kind of like you, though, I'm watching a lot of kids start kindergarten and realizing I should have a kid starting kindergarten, too. Instead I have to watch the neighbor's kid get on the bus instead of mine. It hurts and there's no way around it. At least know that you are not alone in how you feel. <br /><br />Sending you a big hug and looking forward to the day I am jealous but happy of your good news! :)<br /><br />Lily - The Infertile MindLilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16358970796646506205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797240115689353435.post-4477601509709325012010-08-22T23:10:35.313-04:002010-08-22T23:10:35.313-04:00You have such a touching and beautiful blog.

I sincerely hope that the removal of the fibroid will be the magic bullet you've been waiting for. And yes, many people finally have success once the uterus is all cleaned out.

It's so hard to not have those feelings when struggling with IF, after all we are human and to want something and try for it so badly all to no avail makes it impossible not to feel frustrated. Thinking of you & sending love, praying that the surgery helps to correct things and allows you to conceive the baby that you so desire.rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06480554666969330506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797240115689353435.post-86008209552571226022010-08-22T16:43:22.218-04:002010-08-22T16:43:22.218-04:00I so completely understand.

I had gotten to the point in our IF battle (when we found out that bio-children were impossible) that I could no longer put up a Christmas tree, didn't dare go to church on Mother's Day and pretty much just became a homebody. Then we found out that we were getting our son. Even though, in my opinion, adoption doesn't cure IF (I still grieve sometimes over the fact that I will never be pregnant) he sure has brought a joy in my life that is amazing. But honestly, there are still times when I get jealous--especially when that someone's pregnant who severely doesn't deserve to be. You know the ones. I hate that IF has made me so judgemental. I just hate IF. Ugh.<br /><br />ICLW#18Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797240115689353435.post-49145207540109769882010-08-22T16:36:41.811-04:002010-08-22T16:36:41.811-04:00hello from ICLW - i just wrote a very similar post...hello from ICLW - i just wrote a very similar post, well 2 actually... one on facebook and why i need to take breaks from it and the other on feeling left out of the "mom club" ... it still seems like a whole new world to me that i am not allowed to enter. i hope oneday we can all meet there. hope you recover quickly!Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14220592100816306178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797240115689353435.post-4340223108714273072010-08-22T16:26:08.738-04:002010-08-22T16:26:08.738-04:00I can totally relate to your post.

It is not the right timing for us, but there is a bigger and better plan. Make sure to remember all the wonderful things in your life now. Like the hope you have after the surgery! It's exciting.<br /><br />After wanting to keep in touch with any and all friends and acquaintances from high school/college on facebook, this summer I decided to delete my account, at least for the time being. I found myself yearning for the things they had that I didn't, primarily children. Just a thought. I guess I thought that if I couldn't control the jealous twinges on my own, I would remove the temptation. <br /><br />http://bringingyoumorethanasong.blogspot.com/Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00090118005597719639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797240115689353435.post-17723339676611677412010-08-22T14:13:58.629-04:002010-08-22T14:13:58.629-04:00So glad you are feeling hopeful.

It is so hard to see the kids you you thought your kid would play with grow and you are left behind. <br /><br />That was a good size fibroid they removed. As a nurse, I loved the last line of your last post about being happy you pooped because "supposedly it's a big deal" <br /><br />I am hopeful for you too.Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09804891382407278946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797240115689353435.post-89790389819785722502010-08-22T13:44:29.303-04:002010-08-22T13:44:29.303-04:00I am wishing you well!

It's been difficult to watch these little ones grow and know that my children 'should' be close in age to them. <br /><br />Praying that you recovery quickly from your surgery and are able to move forward on your ttc journey soon.<br /><br />ICLWMrs. Gamgeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18351339333625358960noreply@blogger.com
