“I’m grateful for the challenges I face because they reveal my true strength.”
Infertility can feel lonely and heartbreaking, but every day, I appreciate the experiences that have shaped me. Without them, I would not have discovered the depth of my resilience. While every woman is strong, our community at SGF embodies a unique kind of strength—together, we are #SGFstrong.
What Does #SGFstrong Mean for Couples Trying to Conceive?
The journey to starting a family often begins with the hopeful desire to conceive. But as months pass without success, that hope can turn heavy. I remember tracking ovulation, taking my temperature, and reading everything about conception, yet still facing disappointment. Finally, I found the courage to reach out to a fertility specialist, and that moment marked my first step towards becoming #SGFstrong. It’s a brave leap into the unknown, but with determination, nothing can hold you back.
Current Patients: You Are #SGFstrong
When I first arrived at SGF, I was terrified of needles. I even cried during my initial blood draw. But the compassionate team helped me feel at ease during my appointments. Each visit made me a little bolder, and eventually, I learned to self-administer my medications. #SGFstrong means standing in your kitchen, tears streaming down your face, yet still pushing through to take control of your treatment. I found my strength through the incredible staff and the support of my SGF sisters.
To all my SGF sisters: We may not speak much while waiting for our blood draws, but we uplift each other through our shared struggles. Your courage inspires me, and I am proud to stand together with you.
Former Patients: You Are #SGFstrong
You’ve already proven yourselves to be amazing Mothers because of your journeys. Sharing your experiences and success stories fuels hope for those still in the fight. It’s comforting to see photos of miracle babies, reminding us all that there is light at the end of the tunnel. If your path didn’t lead to parenthood, your strength and resilience are still inspiring. You have faced a different future with grace, and we all admire your bravery.
Together, we are all #SGFstrong. We share unique strengths discovered at various stages of our journeys. While I await my positive test, I continue to fight for my dream of parenthood. Remember, you are not alone; we are all together in this.
