I'm ready. I'm finally ready. I am ready to throw off the mantle of survivor guilt and embrace life going forward.
Since I got pregnant, I've been feeling guilty. About only having to do injectables, about only needing one cycle on them, about having a healthy pregnancy, about leaving others behind. No more. I am embracing what life has given me with open arms and moving out from that guilt mantle. (Guilt mantles are not nearly as pretty as gilt mantles.) I still identify as infertile and I'm still sharing what my experience has been with people, but I am no longer holding onto the shame I have felt.
Hopefully what this means is that I will be posting more often. I may start a new blog to get a fresh start. We'll see.
Thank you for listening and thank you for following along on my journey thus far.
Good for you!!
ReplyDeleteGreat decision to let go - it does no good to hold onto guilt like that. You did nothing to feel ashamed of.
