Wow! That sounds like a very wise step to take. Its always good to be informed!

I just got caught up on your past year (I am SO SORRY to have been MIA for so long!). Holy moly, you have been through the ringer! I cannot believe the struggles you have gone through, and so sorry for all the heartache. You have done an incredible job taking care of your little man and I am so glad to hear he is doing better now.

Take care! I am excited to hear what the future holds for you now! I am an only child and have great things to say about that experience, too!

I think you are doing the right thing thinking this decision through.

We always knew we wanted more than 1 child, so when our son turned 1 we went back to the RE… a failed cycle later we turned to adoption again and we were blessed with our baby princess. Our kids are 4 years (almost to the day!) apart and I am SO happy we persevered through the tough times. Watching our son with his sister brings us the biggest joy :)
Good luck!

I so think you’re doing the right thing. This is what we tried to do, but couldn’t get an appointment when we needed. By the time we could, it was going to be too late – we’d moved and a whole bunch of other factors came into play. Now, we’ve got a bunch of spermcicles sitting in another country, and I’m too old and tired of all this to do anything about it. But I keep wondering…

I’m sure it’s weird picking up the phone after all this time, and coming from a completely different place. Good luck with the mental merry-go-round :)

Ughh.. I think about this all the time too. We did 7 cycles as well and got our girls, but are we done? On the days when they’re sweet and angelic, I think I can handle another one.. especially since they’ll be in school full time soon. But on the days where it takes every last bit of energy just to get them into bed.. I say no way. LOL Good luck!

It sounds like the right choice. Definitely don’t want any regrets. Best of luck no matter which way you go.

This is a BIG step! I can’t wait to hear what you find out at the RE. I hope it is positive news that moves you in the direction you want.

It sounds like a very smart move, Amanda. I hope it’s a productive discussion and leads you in a direction that both you and Dan can feel good about.

I almost wrote something with your last post encouraging you to do this, but it felt like assvice.

Your thought of discussing it with the RE seems quite sensible – it may truly help in making the decision to delay your decision or to make a firm decision.

I guess with my own history, I tend to operate from the side of regret for actions not taken than from regret for actions taken. I’m glad you didn’t close of an action without looking at options.

I think of you all often & hope that you are doing well.

I hope you find the answers you are looking for, or that you at least find peace in the answers you get. I think of you, Dan and Adam often, and hope you are doing well.
