Ever since I started on this infertility journey, I’ve felt like I’m constantly yearning for the next chapter in my life: the chapter of pregnancy, of motherhood, or raising a family. But along the way, I’ve realized that my present is just as important as my future. For my own happiness, I’m trying my hardest to live in the now. In this episode, I’m sharing an update on my most recent round of IUI and talking about the “what ifs” I’ve been struggling with. I’m talking about finding a balance between longing for the future and living in the present, and I’m also opening up about my fight to keep my hope alive throughout this journey.
