Let me be very clear when I say this...
Whether you become a mother through natural pregnancy, medically assisted pregnancy, sperm/egg donation, surrogacy, adoption, or fostering:
A MOM IS A MOM IS A MOM
Whether you struggle for years, experience the pain of multiple miscarriages, get pregnant naturally, unexpectedly, or fall victim to secondary infertility:
A MOM IS A MOM IS A MOM
There is no superior option, better choice, or right decision for everyone. Your story is your story and no one else’s. You are just as much a mom as every mom you’ve ever met.
A MOM IS A MOM IS A MOM
And don't ever forget it.
