Secondary IF

Who feels like throwing in the towel?

(i know we all feel like being done with this mess), but who seriously feels like they only have a few more months in them?

If this FET doesn't work, i don't know what we will do.  I have always said that i have one more fresh in me, but we are OOP so it would be a battle with DH. However,  I am just feeling tired lately.  Tired of needles, appts. and having this whole stress of if i will be a mom.  Kind of makes me wonder if i should just throw in the towel after the FET and be happy with my little one!

 

Re: Who feels like throwing in the towel?

  • Me.  It's not just the money, which definitely plays a part.  I was first worried about having another m/c, then a friend of mine had a m/c at 18 weeks.  It seemed that the goal isn't a BFP, it's pushing out a healthy baby.  Then I was lurking on IF yesterday and one of the siggies said that they lost their baby to SIDS at 4 months.  ::sigh::  It just seems like too much risk.  I really wish DH was on board to adopt an older child.  That opens up a whole new playbook of risks though.  It's never ending.  I think if I don't get PG again by March-April, then I'm done.  That'll give me a good 3 more tries.

    Let's think positive for your FET though.  It's just around the corner and you have 2 embies to transfer.  I'm sure we'll be hearing about your BFP in a couple of weeks. :)

  • I'm there. For us it's that DD is getting older by the day and DH & I really did not want children so far apart in age. We originally said that by next Christmas (2010) we'd stop trying and take permanent measures to prevent but that seems so far away. I started out with no issues getting pg but losing them all to now having trouble conceiving. When will it all end? We're trying Clomid + IUI this month and maybe two more months but after that I have no idea what to do. We are OOP for everything.
  • We haven't even started treatment- a big mistake on my part for waiting so long knowing that it took us so long to have Joshua. But for me it is the fact that Joshua is getting older and that we really can't afford to do too many months of treatment anyway.
  • Me. The towel is in my grasp waiting for the result of this cycle to be thrown.

    I am done. Stick a fork in me, I am done, Done.  Its a crapload to wrap my mind around right now but I am not in a good place.  Apparently my 'give a damn' is broken :)

    You know it's time to give up when you just don't care whether you even get pg or not.  Given how much money alone we throw at it each cycle between the monitoring, meds and the acu, plus the extra suppliments, that is enough to make me rethink doing it again.

    I think I may have jinxed myself by volunteering to do the check in way back when.  **Rather bitter** LOL!

  • It will be a year of trying next month with one m/c.  I know I have not struggled as much as most of you have but impatience comes natural to me. I am ready to give up as well.  My insurance won't pay for sh*t until I have been trying for 2 years so to think I would have to endure another year of this sh*t makes me want to quit right now.

  • I battle with wanting to throw the towel in, but somehow I still have renewed strength every cycle, so I think I have awhile yet. 

    Although as queen bone says, it's within reach
