Noordinaryspider I hope this path you are on takes you on a wonderful and exciting journey where ever that may be.

I am hesitant to decide anything right now about IVF when I look at the expense I do wonder if taking that huge amount of money on a very slim chance may be wrong. Would I be depriving my daughter I have of so many things on the slim chance of getting pregnant. So much to think about. An oversees IVF vacation seems like a possible compromise as I could take her with us and she could at least have a 3 week European vacation to enjoy.

It sounds like you've made this decision with a lot of heart. The Act 2 you envision sounds like it could be very nurturing for both you and Terran. Thank you, too, for sharing this journey with us. As WaturMama said, please come back anytime to share again if you'd like to!

Kristin, I love the overseas IVF vacation idea. It sounds so adventurous, and such a nice way to do something special as a family no matter when the result. I wish you clarity in your decision-making about this.

...and such a great story to tell your resulting babies

Just wanted to let you lovely ladies know that I am dropping for good. As much as DH and I want to be parents together, there are so many reasons why it's better that we don't. I truly hate that. But sometimes status quo is a good place to stay and that's definitely where we need to keep things in this aspect. I hate that I convince myself it will all be fine--told DH to slap me next time I bring up the baby idea (joking, of course). Age and hormones are not on my side anyway, even though I know miracles do happen all the time. We're focusing on enjoying the life we have and making the very best of it. I'm thinking some about taking classes at the local community college.

Anyway, sorry for being on and off about TTC. Thanks for letting me join you. I wish you each the best and send much baby dust.

Arianwen. You sound very clear about your decision. I've loved having you here. Always feel free to drop in. No problem at all being on and off with us about TTC. I think this is a good place to process thoughts about that. It sounds like this ending is going to open you to both peace and exciting possibilities. Sending good wishes that that is so.

My temp shifted yesterday--about 3.5 weeks after the miscarriage (it took almost 2 months in 2007). My energy has been really good. I am pleased with all that, and am guessing it is due to the TCM. We didn't really have a good try this month, but I feel positive about the coming ones. I am also looking some into adoption and it feel good to have another option.
