Back again?

I've been putting off writing this post for a long time and I'm not sure why. I know when I was going through my miscarriages and fertility treatments and looking at other blogs it seemed like all of them reached this point where they got to the "other side" with a baby. And I remember thinking that I wasn't sure I would ever get there.

But now I am there. Baby Owen turns 6 months old this week, which is SO hard to believe. He is a wonderful, happy baby who is just so full of life. He has such a mellow personality, and is generally so easygoing, that I was thinking recently that maybe he was the one we had to wait for. It makes me feel better about things although I still feel like all we went through to get to having him is still right under the surface emotionally. I especially felt that way right after having Owen- I had a lot of anxiety over feeling like something was going to go wrong at any moment and that life with him was still so fragile.

I also feel like any time I hear about a friend or acquaintance who is struggling to get pregnant my heart breaks for them because it is such a hard thing to go through. 

That's it for now. Hopefully more to come as I'd really like to get back to writing more.
