My H and I have been going through some personal issues for a while now and unfortunately it seems like things are getting worse and not better. Maybe it's a good thing I'm on a break this month...I may be on a break indefinitely here for a while to see if we can get back to a good place, I definitely don't want to go forward in TTC until we're there. I hope you ladies don't mind if I continue to lurk and post while we're on hiatus.
Re: DH and I not doing so well
Just wanted to offer some hugs and hope that you and your DH are able to work thru everything.
Please continue to lurk and post. We are always here for you - break or no break.

I was seeing a counselor a few weeks back. My H came to one session. The counselor suggested my H seek individual counseling for some of his issues but so far my H has refused
He doesn't see the benefit of it but I'm hoping he'll change his tune sooner rather than later.

**P/SAIF and P/SAL always welcome!**
IF can be very trying on a marriage. DH and I were not on the same page in the very beginning, and it caused a lot of fights. I feel like we also fought about more things that were non-IF related because we were just massively stressed out over our diagnosis. We weren't reacting well to anything that got thrown our way.
Right now we are on a break trying to enjoy life together without children. I thought I would hate it, but I have actually been embracing it. Being on a break is nice because I can have my coffee and go out drinking a bit and take my ibuprofen without feeling guilty. I just wanted to give you hope that a break can be very good mentally (and physically). Sometimes it's just what the doctor ordered.
After 2+ years and multiple treatment cycles,
including an IVF vacation in Costa Rica/Panama,
IVF #2 brought us our miracle baby!
Surprise! Baby Boy is on the way!
((HUGS))
i hope the break helps and you are back in a good place soon
