Once this year is up we are done for a long time, and probably will try IVF before we've completely give up...but it's so sad to know that I might have to "give up". I was sad just hearing from Bryan that he is tired of trying and that right now a baby isn't a priority anymore. I know what he means, but I'm not ready to not make it a priority anymore, it's at the top of my list. But we can't loose our sight on what life is really all about, living in the moment. I'm here if you ever need to talk.<BR/><BR/>Love ya girl!Kymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12304451127617749902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35212546.post-9962772400400007222007-08-16T16:25:00.000-04:002007-08-16T16:25:00.000-04:00i've tried many times to decide what I think our b...i've tried many times to decide what I think our breaking point is. I honestly don't know. <BR/><BR/>I said to my husband once that people have 10 miscarriages and he said "that could happen to us..." and all I could think was NO.. NO NO it couldn't, because I'd lose my mind if it got that far. <BR/>But I'm sitting at 2 and while the pain is great, I feel like the goal is to have a healthy baby.. <BR/>They're going to do some tests and hopefully find SOMETHING to help us, but some tests won't be done unless we have 3 losses.. so maybe if there were a 3rd, we'd have more answers and a solution, so I can't say I'd stop at 3, either. <BR/><BR/>I do think it's part of the slippery slope of IF. First it's just a couple of pills to ovulate better and then there is no end in sight. But it's the path we're on and I don't think I'll know we're off of it until we find ourselves at the end. <BR/><BR/>The pain is very fresh & raw right now. I understand making a plan.. but that plan will always be a morphing, flowing plan that will change as circumstances change. <BR/><BR/>What I'm saying is that hopefully your one more shot is the one shot you need. But if it isn't.. cross that bridge when you get there. <BR/><BR/>I'm thinking of you. <BR/><BR/>--TrishJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04150585209390355119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35212546.post-10308811954973202492007-08-16T12:32:00.000-04:002007-08-16T12:32:00.000-04:00This post really broke my heart.

Often, what is enough one day isn't enough the next. I guess you have to be prepared to bounce around in your thoughts, and that is just so hard. Try to cut yourself some slack and know, and expect, that both you and hubby will bounce around. It's ok, and expected.
