I miscarried in 2007 in my 2nd trimester and have dealt with medical/emotional issues since then, trying to move past the problems and the pain. Every day is a chance to find a silver lining and a positive outlook on my now changed life. There is a 7% chance I can conceive, and that is only if my health changes dramatically soon. I would'nt have thought about children at this time in my life had it not been taken from me.
A little background info....
I have been dealing with medical issues regarding my reproduction capability for the last three and a half years after a very bad miscarriage situation. As I was working through a difficult period one day I realized that more and more people and characters around me seem to be dealing with similar circumstances. TV shows, movies, neighbors and friends are struggling because they cannot or may not have children. This is a place to express my feelings about my situation and hopefully help someone else express theirs.
I may not know what other mothers know, but I am a mother without my child and I do what I can to cope.

Character Review: Chandler and Monica
These Friends spend years as just friends and then several more years dating before they decide to get married and have children. They have a slightly unusual situation when they find out that her uterus is inhospitable and his sperm has low motility. They spend a long time trying conventionally but never get there. After a while they look into adoption and find a young woman who is willing to give up her baby. They spend time getting to know her and preparing a new home for the baby only to find out in the delivery room that they are receiving twins.
