Another year over, a new one just begun. (Or whatever the lyrics are.)
I just wanted to do a quick update since I'll be away from the computer for about a week. I really appreciate all the advice and support - it truly helps. DH and I have had little bits of "the talk" here and there. I'm sure we'll have the big sit down very soon, probably after the craziness of Christmas.
I can debate over and over in my head but the bottom line is this: I want to give Keegan a sibling. Above everything else, I want that. And if IVF is our last ditch effort to give him the chance of having a brother or sister well, I guess that is what I want to do. I want to give it a shot. It'll be a tough pill to swallow if it isn't successful and that really scares me but that is just part of the deal. It is what it is. I will cross that bridge when/if we get there. Now, I just have to see where DH is at.
I'm off to spend several days off with my wonderful son and husband and I am really looking forward to it. I need to work on getting my Christmas spirit back and Keegan is just the one who could do it for me.

I hope the time with your family is just what you need to feel better. I know it's not a cure-all, but I know time with your precious son is better than anything any doctor can tell you. As for IVF, I would say go for it. Yes, if it fails it would be a bitter pill to swallow (but remember, FETs are cheaper than a fresh cycle, so there is always plan B if there are frozen embryos) but I think maybe in the future you would always wonder "what if we had done IVF??". Better to go for it and forge ahead into those scary, unchartered waters and chance your dream realized than to sit on the sidelines and always wonder. I am thinking of you always.
