After a very, very, very rough Friday, Hubster and I had a major marriage talk on Saturday. We both realize that things have not been the same, and we do feel that the whole IF thing has really taken it's toll. But we also agree that we don't feel our family is complete. He says he's been worried about me, about my mental state because he says I seem to be depressed, which is an honest assessment.
We have made a commitment to start accentuating the positive, and to be more cognizant of each other.
After getting the bloodtest results back, and finding out that our issue is most likely easily treatable, we have decided that we really do want to give things one more shot. But we're going to wait until probably around the end of March. We want enough distance between us and the last cycle, plus the we plan to use this time to strengthen our marriage to what it was before.
I'm still boycrazy. I always will be. That's never been an issue in my marriage. He's still a sports fanatic, and always will be. If either of us changed that, we wouldn't be who we are.
I can honestly say that for the last couple of days, I've felt happier. I think clearing the air, and NOT holding everything in anymore really made a difference.
Thanks to all of you for your continued support. I love you guys.

You take my ovaries, I take your yarns.
He is so freakin hot.
You take my ovaries, I take your yarns.
I much prefer he is silent. Just be naked. And silent. A moan or groan here and there is acceptable, however.
You are so wise.
You take my ovaries, I take your yarns.
I'm sorry, what did you say Bubs?
Probably totally NOT appropriate in an update re: marriage post?
You take my ovaries, I take your yarns.
