A Special Poem on Mother's Day

I am not yet struggling with Infertility (IF) because we only had one miscarriage. But here is a poem that was shared in one of my groups for those who find this day challenging.For the 1 in 8:Happy mother's dayit comes around every yearbut when you have empty armsit's sometimes hard to hearIt's a day to celebrate a motherfor all the trails she's overcameand a reminder to an infertileof her loneliness and shamebut what really makes a motheris it just conception and birth?or is there something morethat shows a mother's worth?It's putting your child firstin everything you doIt's sacrifice and determinationand love and patience tooAn infertile woman makes all her plansaround a child not yet conceivedshe loves even though they aren't heremore than she ever could have believedShe appreciates and understandswhat a blessing children areshe works hard for just a chancethat motherhood is not that farThe odds are stacked against herand yet she still has hopeeveryday is another strugglefinding ways to help her copeSo even though her arms are emptyshe can still be a mother tooso say a special happy mother's dayfor those waiting for that dream to come true.
