Sharing from the heart

I was once asked why I will want to publicly share about my experiences in Trying for Another Baby so publicly.

To me, it was a rather straightforward thought process which is really two-fold: as a record for myself of the journey and to encourage someone else out there who may have felt as alone as I do/did at times. It is a situation that can be rather hard to share and yet more common than most of us think it to be.

I am often encouraged by life's stories that others share. These testimonies could have been shared by my inner circle of family and friends or even complete strangers - they still touch me.

I am always curious to learn how others react to situations and how they managed to resolve/cope/face different situations. So being able to find out through online forums and reading of other's blogs etc have helped me in coming to terms with this situation.

There is nothing noble about the idea - just plain and simple sharing.
