Well, it's official...

in TTC After a Loss

We are putting TTC on hold AGAIN! 

We were suppose to start TTC this month but it got pushed back to October because DH was taking an anti-malarial drug.  Now we are probably going to wait until December.  We have been going back and forth about it and I think we have decided it would definitely be best to wait a couple more months. 

If by some miracle, I got pregnant the first time trying in October, there is a very good chance that DH would be in Costa Rica when the baby was due.  Also, if we wait a couple more months, I will have more paid time off saved up and I need to save as much as possible since my job doesn't offer any maternity leave. (Hell, my job doesn't even qualify for FMLA)

I'm not as upset about waiting this time as I have been in the past.  This one was our decision and not something beyond our control like the layoffs and the anti-malarial drugs.  But still, I guess it is just once more I am left wondering if we will ever have the chance to try for our take home baby.

    Ugh, I bet that IS frustrating! Hopefully these next 4 months will go quickly for you!

    It sounds like you two are doing what's best for your family and so that your DH will be there for you when the time comes. I would want the same. *HUGS*

    ((hugs)) You know I think that it completely sucks that you have to wait, but I am amazed at your strength.  I know I couldn't be as patient and cool about all of this considering everything you have been through. 

    I am hoping for a single cycle BFP in December though!
