Ask Lo Q&A

Dear Lo,

I was hoping for your help in coming up with a mantra or phrase to keep my mind at peace. I am finally on the same page with my husband about our desire to have another child. We have been trying almost a year with no luck. Had no problems with my first pregnancy. I am dreading having a conversation about fertility treatments with him because I do not want to be heartbroken all over again. Sometimes I wonder if this is all meant to be? I had to be so persistent for him to agree to try to have another child, now I'm being tested again since it's not happening easily and I may need fertility treatment. I am trying to go with the flow and accept what is, but how can I not fight for what's important to me? I so appreciate your help and support. Trying to find a mantra of acceptance to keep my mind at ease, as it's hard for this not to be all consuming.
