Stepping away from the bump

Hi ladies,

The last two cycles we had zero chance because DH was travelling.  We are in process of selling house and moving to CA.  When I get settled in I plan to find a new RE and explore IVF options.

I am cheering for you all and I will check in occasionally but since I'm not pursuing any treatment right now it is extra painful to post here.  I feel like i have no chance of a #2 these days.  Or ever really.  

I wish you all the best.  This board has been a great comfort to me.  It really helps knowing how others struggle with IF, deal with questions of "don't you want another", deal with questions from your LO, etc.  

I plan to be back but in the nicest way I hope when I return NONE of you are still here.  :)

    We will miss you but I completely understand needing to step away from here while not actively trying.  Stepping away really helped me mentally while we were on a forced break, despite as great as this board is while you are ttc.  Good luck over the next few months, and I hope I am not here when you get back either! ;)  I'd love for us to all be on the "other side" sometime soon.
