Just need to vent. I just sent my niece home after having her for a week. She is 7 years old and the light of my life. I've so enjoyed having a little one in the house that it makes me worry I will never have one of my own. I love taking her to the movies and we sing in the car and do silly things with one another. I wish I had my own child to make these memories with!

I just want to give you some encouragement. I went through this with my little SIL's. They were the light of my life and my heart ached that I couldn't lavish this love on my own child or children. I wished they were mine and I didn't have to take them home when the day was done (or the weekend). I decorated a beautiful room for them and filled it with the most wonderful toys while the room designated to someday be our nursery was filled with junk as a storage room. I bought them too much and spoiled them very badly.
My day finally came. My little SIL's were there to witness the miracle of birth at the ripe old ages of 4 & 7. I'm so happy I got to share my greatest joy with them. They have a special bond with Jamie that I hope will last forever. I pray that you're turn comes very soon. Nobody should have to suffer through infertility. It will make you stonger and you will never, ever take your child for granted.

I just wanted to send you some hugs first. Try to think of it this way, maybe God has intended right now for you to be an important piece of your nieces life. Maybe she needs the special love and attention you are giving her right now and God knows that is where He needs you to be right now. I pray that your time will come soon but I also pray for patience and peace while you are waiting. Best wishes.

It's funny, but I had forgotten that my DH said the same thing. He said that maybe God made us wait b/c my little SIL needed us so badly. He said if we had a child of our own to lavish all the love on, we would not have given nearly so much to them. Without us, the girls would have gone without so much.
I don't know if that's of any comfort to you, it wasn't much to me at the time. I wanted my very own baby so badly.
((HUGS))
Just want to let you know that you are not alone and that I can totally relate... I love my neices (6 & 2), but at times it makes me upset too, I want to so badly give them some cousins close in age to them... But I guess right now we can only take it one day at a time...
good luck (((HUGS)))

Thanks cysters! I take it all to heart. I guess I just get so down and depressed about it sometimes. I do think my niece does need me very badly at this time. Her mother is in and out of her life and her father rarely sees her. She lives with my mom and step dad.

I kind of understand where you are coming from. My sister just gave birth to my wonderful niece but I am longing for my own child. I know I am young but I just has a miscarriage and I hope it won't take me forever to get pg again. Until then I will love my niece like she is my own and pray that one day I will become pg again.

I totally understand, and even though I am not currently trying to have a baby, I was really upset by the fact I was told that I may not be able to have one. Things were made only worse by the fact that my eldest sister had a baby, and well she has Schizophrenia
, and was unable to keep my beautiful niece, and due to the fact my aunt played games I was unable to stop the adoption. I found out I had PCOS only two weeks after the adoption was official. I became very very upset by that, because there had been only weeks before a chance to have had a baby that was blood related to me.
My aunt said that if she'd known, she would have helped me to adopt her, but I really don't think she would have... from past experience on how she has treated me... Well anyway, I understand exactly how you feel.

I am extremely close to my neice and four nephews and spoil them rotten and I'm really hands on and have been since the day they all were born. My Angel Michael who is 11 now, we still have such a strong bond and that I'm grateful for but like you I would love a child of my own. I recently have been thinking about becoming a foster mum. Maybe thats my calling?
Anyways... You are certainly not alone and I feel for you.
Keep your chin up and I am praying for a miracle for you too.
