Calling all TTC-ers who are feeling down in the dumps, heartbroken by BFNs, struggling with IF, and who are all-around feeling defeated by the TTC process.
I bring to you a thread full of inspiration :) Please feel free to add little meaningful pick-me-ups along the way, and come back to visit this thread when you're feeling especially down for a quick pick-me-up!
Please only add graphics that can be directly applied towards the struggles of TTC (AKA this is not a funny dog/cat picture, "haters gonna hate", funny things in general, etc thread).
To Start:





@Mrs Sarah McK: I absolutely adore the Joseph Campbell quote! It's exactly how I feel right now. My mom keeps saying that I thought TTC would be easy, but it's not quite how I planned it taking longer than I thought.
@Mrs Sarah McK: Wonderful additions. I'm sorry for your struggles :(
Here's a couple more:


Love this!!! Thanks MissMaine! I'll try to find something to add later!
After my BFN today this really helped. Thanks so much!!
What a great thread!
Here are mine (sources available on my Pinterest -- Lisa Rice)




Boy, do I need ALL of these! Thanks, ladies for posting them. :)
SUCH a great idea Maine!
@Mrs Sarah McK:That one with the baby in the sand just made me cry....in a good way. Great additions!





These are so awesome. I definitely need a pick-me-up some mornings. I keep reminding myself that I'm not broken, I'm just normal.
And trying is just so much fun!
Thanks to all of you for these! I'm having an especially rough morning with spotting at 9dpo for the 5th out of 7th month I was not on medicine to treat it. Feeling really bummed. I'll try to find some to add!
This is an amazing thread and is making me cry!
@Mrs Sarah McK: Love the baby in the sand
and
@Running Elley: Your last one really made me cry. I've so been the girl in that photo.
@MrsMaine: Thanks for starting this thread...definitely needed!
This is an awesome thread! @bunny: I love that one "Don't put off your happy life!" It's a great reminder to stay positive and enjoy what life has to offer NOW.


Ahh! You ladies have found such fantastic ones. I'm so glad this thread is being well-received throughout the Hive. I think some of us really, really needed it (myself included).
Here's a few more:



I'm crying so much right now (maybe b/c of the hormones)! Even though I'm pregnant my stuggle is still very fresh in my mind.@Running Elley: I love the last one you posted, I think it's the one that hit me the hardest. I've spent so many days praying and worried that God wouldn't hear me and kept telling myself that he did.
I love this thread!
@JewishBride:&@2PeasinaPod:That one is my favorite too. I've been that girl and, honestly, I still am a lot of days. It's nice to be reminded that He knows even though sometimes I don't even know what to say anymore.
@Mrs Sarah McK: Wow - "Never give up on someone you can't go a day without thinking about." This x 1,000. Thank you so much - I needed this today.
@MrsMaine:What an awesome idea! These are bringing tears to my eyes...in a good way!!
This is so fantastic. Thank you times a thousand for posting these. I needed a pick me up at the start of cycle 10.
@ MissMaine, I love that last one. This is NOT how my story's going to end.
A couple more I stumbled upon on pinterest...
Also, I don't think it's quite the tone this thread is looking for, but if you want a laugh, check out the infertile panda memes.





@jaguar: This one you posted describes my state of mind these days perfectly: "It's hard to wait around for something you know might never happen, but it's even harder to give up when you know it's everything you want."
I just went Pinterest crazy so I figured I'd share with the thread..




I haven't been on here is a little while since it's become very difficult to go on at work. I know I probably shouldn't have been on it at work anyways lol
But I was getting a little down today and just read this thread. These are some wonderful and beautiful sayings that really made me smile. Thanks for sharing!
