While in the midst of figuring things out I felt a mixture of all emotions. I would go from happy and content one minute to utter despair and anger the next. I just knew that I was NOT dealing with infertility the "right" way. One day I realized, while talking to my mother, that there was no right or wrong way to deal with the what I was going through. From then on I learned an important concept that would change every aspect of my life...
It is what it is.
From this simple statement, and important therapeutic concept, I realized that I could not control the way I felt about infertility or the injustice of it all, but I could change how I accepted what I was feeling.
Infertility can cause a lot of emotions. Allow yourself to feel that emotion and accept it for what it is...a natural and normal part of being human.
