Optimistic vs Pessimistic

I think it's pretty fair to say that in our relationship I am the more optimistic one and Johnny is the more pessimistic one

I have always been a half glass full kinda girl, always try to look for the positive and see the good in people.
But infertility has tested all of that, it's made me look at myself and what I truly do believe.
I've always believed that if we did get to the stage of needing IVF than it would work, no doubt about it. I have been pregnant before and carried to full term, I have never had a miscarriage (that I know of) and the only problem we have had is the conception part.

However after watching so many beautiful ladies go through many IVF attempts and each attempt being unsuccessful it has really made me wonder if it will work for us.
Most people don't ever find out why it doesn't work for them, it's just one of those things that there is no reason...it just is the way it is.

Will we be one of there couples who have to go through many attempts, I'm not sure if I'm ready for that.

Having an unsuccessful IVF attempt would be one of the hardest things imaginable....


The closer we get to starting IVF the less optimistic I am becoming, I guess it's easy to say you're an optimist and always look for the good if you've never been tested, if you've never had the core of your belief pushed to the limits, if you've never had to examine the person you deep down.
