To my fertile friends...
You complain about morning sickness...
but I long for the morning when I can wake up and vomit with a purpose.
You complain about stretch marks...
but I dream about the day when my belly carries a new life inside.
You complain about weird cravings...
but sometimes, I eat pickles and ice cream just to see what it would be like.
You complain about your overprotective husband...
but I can't wait for the day when my husband becomes a father.
You complain about your frequent ob appointments...
but I look forward to the day when I can visit a regular ob instead of the infertility clinic.
You complain about the costs of formula and diapers...
but I can't wait to put those things on my grocery list.
You complain about the duplicate gifts you received at the shower...
but I long for the day when people give me things to celebrate a miracle.
You complain about sleepless nights...
but I look forward to cuddling my baby in my arms at 2 am.
You complain about the neverending visits from your parents and in-laws...
but I can't wait for the day when I make them grandparents.
You complain about how much your life has changed since having the baby...
but I dream about us becoming a family.
You complain a lot...
but you have so much to be thankful for.
