Hope...

You've heard of a "push present"... you know, a gift from the husband (significant other) to the mama after she goes through all the work of carrying a pregnancy and laboring to produce that little bundle of love.


Well... we obviously aren't there yet, but last night the hubs bought me this necklace as a little reminder to keep hope alive as we are staring down the barrel of our first IVF cycle.


I looked and looked on Etsy, and decided on this shop because it is obvious through some of the listings that at least one of these ladies has dealt with infertility. It was also evident that these ladies understand a struggle. I found sentiments like Endure, Hope, Courage, Wish, Be Still and Come What May... I could have purchased several things from them, but I decided to start here...




I love this necklace and can't wait until it arrives- Hopefully it will be here in time for our consult appointment on the 26th. Lord knows I will need a little hope after that conversation!
