Married with No children

Not that we haven’t been trying

But I’m very tired of people telling me things

“Have more sex with your husband”

“Just give up and it’ll happen”

“Maybe God doesn’t want you to be parents”

“Everything in God’s timing.”

“What are you doing wrong?”

“Are you doing it right?”

I’m sorry… excuse me…

I’m just so tried of the things I’ve been hearing. Hell, one guy told me to buy a boat and then I’d get pregnant… Like what?

Honestly I’m exhausted by all of it. All. Of. It.

For almost 10 years now my husband and I have been trying. And nothing. Not even a miscarriage. Not even a false positive pregnancy test. It’s just been month after month of wondering what the heck is going on.

1 day late gave me hope. 2 days late and I would be thinking about taking a pregnancy test. Then it would come on day 3 late. My period, the pain, and the deep depression that would make it feel impossible to stand.

2 surgeries for endometriosis being removed. 1 HSG test. Doctors said everything was fine. Doctors made me feel crazy. “Everything looks normal Emily. If you’re still not pregnant in 4 months come back and we will check again.”

June 2024 surgery for an endo removal.

I would come back and then it was basically just another shrug to the shoulders.

Got a fidget ring to help with the waiting room anxiety.

But now I have a new doctor. So lets see what comes next for us. I’m still hopeful.

I’m still willing to try.

We feel we are meant to be parents. We are desperate for a child.

Send good vibes, prayers, heck recruit others if you know anyone running a prayer list.

We need it.

I’m Emily Ann Graham,

but you can call me Emily.

and I’m writing a blog, again. But this time it’s going to be about my overall life. The good, the bad and whatever else is going on. I never thought I’d be writing another blog but here I am and not hiding behind a “how to” anymore. Although I might a couple of those too.

Let’s connect
