We had such hope for this last cycle when our RE spotted the corpus luteum in one follicle. Such is life, we all know its not fair.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316511791499949824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492793455039836501.post-33108647747724404562012-04-02T13:13:08.147-04:002012-04-02T13:13:08.147-04:00I miss having my pets around.

I refused to ditch him just because the military wouldn't pay for his movement with me. Animals are a great source of comfort.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316511791499949824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492793455039836501.post-14675162400163201572012-04-02T13:11:50.625-04:002012-04-02T13:11:50.625-04:00Thank you BW.

J is trying to get another appointment for his back today.

I...Your post really hit home with several points. <br /><br />I am sorry that you are at that fork in the road, but I agree that there is nothing wrong with setting limits to how long you will continue this journey. All of us have our personal stopping points, based on finances, age, health etc. <br /><br />I am the same age as you and I too have decided that this year is my last for TTC. There are older women who are successfully becoming Mom's but I have put my own personal age limit to where I would feel comfortable.<br /> <br />Also, a lot has to do with understanding that you have done the best you could given your circumstance which it looks like you have done.<br /><br />Lastly, I agree about the pet adoption. I too really want a dog, but have held off as I was TTC and did not see any point in getting a pet now. But defintely my plan is that if I dont get pregnancy I will get a pet and be happy with my child free life. <br /><br />Having said all this I do hope that you keep trying naturally for now and I hope you get lucky. Have you been tested for why you keep gettng BFPs and then BFN's? Or do they just say bad egg quality?Sunflowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12666376683383060063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492793455039836501.post-63643486590938417852012-04-02T09:54:22.492-04:002012-04-02T09:54:22.492-04:00I can absolutely relate to what you are saying abo...I can absolutely relate to what you are saying about the moving on part. Although we do own "The Rapp" zoo, bed and breakfast. Thank goodness I am not allergic to animals or I would have to move out of our home. <br /><br />I hope you get some answers at the doctor office this week concerning the pain you are having.Just Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06315564549299993908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492793455039836501.post-47014290227840587182012-04-02T00:43:49.458-04:002012-04-02T00:43:49.458-04:00My heart absolutely broke to read your post, Rebec...My heart absolutely broke to read your post, Rebecca. I admire you infinitely for being so unbelievably brave and stoic through everything you have been through. I really do hope that you are able to improve your health and find a happier way of life for you and your hug. I will still pray for a miracle pregnancy for you.

Only you can know when it is time, and if it makes you sicker and sicker, you have to question, is it worth it to be so sick? I think that is a great idea to work on getting yourself better physically. And I hope if you do have an ulcer, you can get treat it quickly and successfully.EndoJoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18398955737423055566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492793455039836501.post-15580237309825282912012-04-01T18:45:30.432-04:002012-04-01T18:45:30.432-04:00There is no shame.
