I am proud of myself for being genuinely happy when people<br />
are expecting!<br />
I am proud of both me and DH for constantly working on our<br />
bitachon, figuring out the proper hashkafos and davening so hard!<br />
Thank you, Linda... I think this is a great idea!<br />

I'm proud of myself for realizing that money only comes from<br />
Hashem, and when you really need it, you get it.<br />

I am so proud of myself because: After finding out this week that<br />
I failed my first IVF cycle, I managed to do laundry, clean the house,<br />
and go to work instead of falling apart. Life must go on!<br />

Dear Morah,<br />
Thank you so much for starting this thread. Lots of times I feel<br />
the need to let others know what makes me happy whilst going<br />
through IF. Today I am proud of myself for being genuinely happy<br />
for my younger sister who recently shared her marvelous news<br />
with me. I feel pain, yet very happy for her at the same time. I am<br />
really proud of myself for being able to do it for her sake and for<br />
mine.<br />

Well, I want to say that if I'd write a mitzva note, I'd give it to<br />
DH ! For being so understanding even when I'm sure at times he<br />
really didn't understand (explain hormones to a man, please!) and<br />
for always trying to make it feel like a "we" situation, since (of<br />
course) it really is. So shout it out for DH!<br />

Dear Morah Linda,<br />
Last Friday I was very proud of myself!<br />
I had to have my blood drawn, which isn't something I really<br />
enjoy doing too much. Instead of freaking out, hyperventilating, or<br />
even throwing up, I lay there calmly and let the phlebotomist take<br />
my blood. I even remembered to thank her!<br />
Well, after just having had an HSG test (B”H everything was<br />
fine), I couldn’t help but write in here. It was a bit painful but I<br />
endure it like a trooper....so said the radiologist. He mentioned to<br />
me that I was his third patient of the day and his best one. That<br />
one lady kicked him and really was giving it to him. I am proud for<br />
controlling my pain and not injuring the doctor who was just<br />
doing his job. Then I am proud of myself for having driven myself<br />
home in all that pain.<br />
Love, Me<br />
P.S. – BTW, overcoming this extremely intense fear of mine has<br />
shown me the depth of the possible courage and strength of human<br />
character. Hashem has implanted deep within our core, immense<br />
wellsprings of strength; we just need to dig deep till we reach them!<br />
Ali V'hatzlachi!<br />
I know that with each test that Hashem gives me, this IF journey<br />
is only making me stronger!<br />
