Dear self,
You are strong.
It's not weak to cry.
It's not weak to need to talk about it.
It's okay to struggle.
Only about 1% of women go through this.
No one's tired of you.
And if they are, then they're not worth your time.
You've only missed 4 days of work through 3 miscarriages.
That is amazing (and, let's face it, a little nuts).
Don't compare yourself to other women who've been through worse.
There's no magic number of miscarriages you have to reach before you can move on.
Just because doctors recommend trying again and again doesn't mean you have to.
mrohkay supports you, and you're lucky to be on the same page.
(He's pretty cute, by the way.)
You will be a mom.
You will be an aunt first, and that's okay.
I just thought you needed to hear this today.
Have a good day.
love,
me
