Baby Fever??
Have you ever had just enough alcohol to make you emotional, but not enough to numb you? I had 2 glasses of wine- enough to turn me into a weeping basket case right now- and I don't know who to talk to.
I'm downstairs in my BFF''s house, across the country from my H, doing some dishes as I listen to her and her H read bedtime stories to their LOs (one of whom is my Godson)... I'm actually starting to cry...a lot. I don't know why I'm sad- I don't know if I want what they have or if I'm sad because at this point I can't have this and don't know if I ever will, or if I'm just touched by how sweet his "I love you mommy" really is.
I can't really talk to anybody about this- none of my close friends really "get" it- if that makes sense. I don't know if I even want kids anymore- I've spent the last 10 years knowing that I might not be able to have them... I can't afford IVF and I don't know if I want to go that far- hormones make me psycho... but adoption is always an option- once we have the $$$... but I don't know if I want that either.
How do you KNOW?! I don't know if I do/do not want this because I've gone so long telling myself I can't have it anyway. When I was in my early 20s I wanted 4+ kids... now I question myself and have no idea what I really want. I'm super emotional right now and don't really need a response... I just had to jot this down. I may DD later- once the wine wears off, lol... but if you've made it this far, I just wanted to say- Thank you for listening.

I'm so sorry you and your dh are having to deal with IF. It's so so not fair!!
Time to put on your big girl panties
I've got your rainbows and ponies right here
Thanks Robyn
And Oosum.... LOL! I'm not sure if I'd be ready to jump right into teenager phase... but heck, I'm tough- I'll try anything once, lol!
::hugs::
Always here to listen.
THIS!
After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
IF sucks very much. It's just not fair at all and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. So sorry you have to go through all this. What an emotional roller coaster.
Ps...I've nested while drunk also. No need to DD. We've all been there. (well maybe not all but a lot of us)
I'm so sorry.
