A loved one is not gone
until they are forgotten.
And to live in the hearts
of those left behind
is to live forever.

that I am mourning children
that do not exist
and I'm the only one
who misses them."

I think the biggest difference when parenting after infertility is that you have had a long time to build up expectations about what having a baby would be like - often expectations that are unrealistic - so that moms after IF are more susceptible to PPD... Other than that, I wasn't aware of any other differences (and I became a mom after IF at the same time my SIL became a mom w/o IF)... I'm very interested to hear what other women will say.
