Props to the Husband

We have all felt that annoying situation when our family and friends just don't seem to understand what we are going through. And are they really even trying? And husbands are no exception. I know its been hard on my husband to see me get hopeful and get let down again and again. He was worried that i was falling into depression and of course i was. It was also hard on me to feel like he didn't understand what i was going through and how terrible this can make you feel about yourself. We made the decision together to skip IUI with injections and go straight to IVF (And i am so extremely glad we did). Since IVF has begun, he has been incredible. He gives me all of my injections so he feels much more involved and i think him being more a part of this process has helped him really see how much of a toll infertility takes physically and emotionally. I have had my doubtful days where I am afraid that this might not work but he always reassures me that he has no doubts that this will work. Man, it feels good to have his support. I have always had great support from my Mother (thank God) but with the husband it feels like we are truly preparing for our family together. Thank you Dustin. You have been there for me through everything these past 5 years and especially now, when i need you the most. God gave me this infertility struggle that I will overcome but he also gave me the most amazing partner in life. So looking at the big picture, I'm still very lucky. I'll take it :)
