In this Episode we talk about different challenges of being a parent and dealing with debilitating pain. We recognize that we are fortunate to have children, but that doesn't mean that it's easy. We talk about secondary infertility and the guilt associated with leaning on others to help you because that pain is so bad. This is a very sensitive subject that many face on a multitude of levels, but they don't have to do it alone.
What we've learned and continue to learn walking through:
-Guilt
-Fear
-Pain
-Appreciation
-Life
- Making life altering decision
-Struggles with fertility
-Struggles with pregnancy
- Living life to the fullest
This wasn't the vision of parenthood we had, but it's one that we are learning to navigate. We know we're not alone with this, so don't feel like you are. Join us and lets walk this life together.
