Friday, July 7: Off the wagon
I have fallen off of the positive attitude wagon. I hope that I can get back up. I don't know why exactly. I think that DH and I are a bit more scared of trying again than we thought. In the past I have been quite confident that I would get pregnant. My one fear was getting to 13 weeks. Now so much has changed.
From preconception to birth is a challenge for us. Part of me has tried to convince myself that I don't even want a family. It must be my sub-conscious trying to protect my heart. I let myself cry on and off all day. In the end, I have to lift myself back up. I have never been one to fall victim of a negative attitude for long.
