TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

Miss you all!

So I've been pretty absent from the boards for a while now and I just wanted to pop in to say 'hi' and I am still rooting for you all!

We're still TTA (with BC) and I'm not sure when/if we'll TTC again.  I know IVF is the safest way for us, but we just don't have that kind of money.  If we were to TTC again on our own/ with Tx (which my RE has cleared us for, with caution) I'd be at a huge risk of losing another pregnancy and tube.  Obviously all of these things is making it difficult to make a decision.

::HUGS:: and <3 to you all!

Re: Miss you all!

  • Oh honey I am so so sorry, I know what you mean about the expense. I am almost certain that if we can't do this with some fertility drug help that we can't afford IVF. If you EVER wanna talk you know where to find me. Lots of hugs

  • I've been thinking of you and wondering how you were doing. I'm so sorry that you and your DH are faced with such a tough decision as to TTC again or not. I can't give you an advice as I don't know what I would do in your shoes but know that you are on my thoughts often and I'm sending you ((hugs)). I hate that this has to be so hard for you. Or for any of us for that matter.
