We happily decided that our family is complete. We are done with the drugs, the losses, the stress and are just focusing on us and the joy our daughter brings into our lives.
We decided on Friday that DH would be getting a Vasectomy as soon as we are able to and I feel like all of the stress just slipped out of my life upon deciding that. We are excited for our future and that is that.
So, I wish the best of luck to all of you ladies in your journey. My only advice is to just listen to your heart and your gut and do what is best for not just you but your whole family.

I am happy you were able to make a decision that was best for you and your family! Enjoy your little girl, and continue to be stress free.
FWIW- We made a similar decision. We went through treatments for both boys and didnt want to do that again. But I am a type A personality and I cant "just wait and see what happens." I would stress about it ALL.THE.TIME. So we decided that DH would get a vasectomy and our family was complete. While sometimes I wonder if we made the right decision, I am really happy and it has taken a lot of stress out of our lives and we are just loving the family we have now, not the one we dont have. I hope you are able to find that same peace!!
LOVES!
Just want to wish you the best of luck!
