I am surrounded by pregnant people. And when I say surrounded, I don't mean I go to the mall and 'notice' all the pregnant people. I mean all my friends and family are pregnant. I can't sign on to facebook without seeing someone's pictures, hearing how people's dr's appointments went, talking about baby registries, clothing shopping, ultrasounds, heartbeats, and baby showers. Is it wrong that I just want to delete everyone that has anything to do with pregnancy or babies? I mean, I'm not going to really go and delete these people, they are family and friends, but I can't help but feel the rainstorm from my black cloud whenever I see that stuff. And is it wrong that I want to avoid every babyshower that I'm invited to? It feels like someone is handing me a dagger saying.. "here, go enjoy yourself at this other person's baby shower!" It just hurts. And I'm hurting enough already.
I came across the definition of "infertile" in my Anatomy school book the other day. Here's saving you the time to google the definition...
in·fer·tile definition
Pronunciation: /(ˈ)in-ˈfərt- ə l/Function: adj
: not fertile
especially : incapable of or unsuccessful in achieving pregnancy over a considerable period of time (as a year) in spiteof determined attempts by heterosexual intercourse withoutcontraception
It definitely reminded me that last month I was no longer "unsuccessful" but now "infertile".
*insert bee sting here*
I feel so betrayed. My own body betrayed me! How could it do that to me?
Feeling betrayed by someone else hurts, but feeling betrayed by your own self is devastating.
