This part really really sucks. I really wish I could come back here to join your grad board with a successful story and offer you ladies hope. But sadly that's not the case.
After 3 losses, how do you ever find the strength to try again. Or when do you simply give up. After my first loss I knew I still had a good chance of being successful. After my second I figured I simply had really bad luck. But after my third, I know that this will never be easy for me. And how much heartbreak can one couple take. I'm now struggling with wondering if the two of us will ever be enough.

Are you looking at doing any more testing? It's hard when all of the 'easy' stuff is ruled out, since after those tests, most of the time RPL is unexplained. It's a giant shite sandwich.
Please take some time for yourself. Also, I know it helped me to look at what my life without babies would be like. This was incredibly hard for me at first, but once I pictured a happy life even without kids, I was better able to face that as a possible reality without sobbing every 5 seconds. Knowing that I could travel and do a million amazing things, that hopefully my sister will have kids and I could use my maternal instincts to be the best aunt in the entire world, that I have my dog/son that is the most amazing collie in the world and he is like my son to me... these things all help me to cope. (As does my AMAZING therapist... )
