We're in a similar boat. I have scheduled an appointment with our RE for next week to go over our options (we have 3 embryos on ice). Hubby & I have talked and would like more kids, but also know it may not work out that way. Like you, I want to try with my last remaining embryos. 2 Frozen IVF Cycles. I know I can't do another fresh one (emotional, physical, and financial reasons keep us from even considering going for another fresh ones if the frozen ones fail) so we'll see how the meeting goes and where it leads us. If we don't succeed, I know we are already so blessed to have Jack. We'll have to consider cost and timing (the economy being what it is these are unfortunately definite things to consider for us! Sigh). In any case, I have always enjoyed reading your blog - knowing that I am not alone. Jack and Adam are about the same age. I know our situations are different, but I am happy for you and your family that you are moving forward and trying again. Adam is adorable and so lucky to have such wonderful parents.

I hope it does work out for your family with this cycle, but you have already won the biggest prize with Adam. I totally can relate to your feelings.

I'm very hopeful for you that this works! But, as you said, if it doesn't, I have no doubt your family of 3 will be just right. How great that you are both on the same page.
