Song about infertility

I can't even begin to describe the pain that a woman goes through when she can not conceive on her own. Miscarriages, fertility treatments and negative pregnancy tests all fall into this horrible category of Hell on earth. I thought that once I had my daughter all of this pain would go away. Unfortunately for me, it has re-surfaced. My husband and I have been trying for a year and half to get pregnant on our own. Everyone says it will happen naturally now that we have had our Mia. This is not the case for us. We are figuring out a way to pay for yet another round of IVF. Everywhere I go, I see nothing but pregnant women. The pain that I felt all of those years ago creeps back up and it hurts.So many women who get pregnant on their own take it for granted. You don't realize what a gift it really is until you are told you can't conceive on your own. This song explains a lot of what us women are going through during these cycles. Stay strong ladies, your time will come.
