    Help me think through this "silly" worry? [vacations + OAD not by choice]

    @kosherinchrist We also plan to ask a bff of our kiddo’s later on if it doesn’t work for all our parents to go. I took friends on vacation all the time growing up (my sister is much older so we weren’t close until adulthood)

    @yasooooo Thank you so much. I really want my kid to feel like her life is complete so I hope none of my sadness really shows. She’s such a wonderful little one.

    One and done not by choice?

    @tims64 Hi there! One and done bc I am infertile and had to do IVF twice to get our beautiful daughter (she was the only viable embryo). I have gone through a lot the past couple years to grieve the idea of having a second. I’d even picked the name Elizabeth. It’s tough, and therapy helped...

    Having a tough time

    @justinfaith Hugs back to you. It is weird. And I’m in the same not not believing it’s responsible to have another when partners are getting up there, which is a direct consequence of my father’s death at 56. I really wish this were a choice I got to make for myself but it just isn’t. My biggest...

    @vel Thank you so much — this is really encouraging! My sis got pregnant easily at 36, 39 and 42 so it was a real shock when I didn’t.

    @bw1 Thank you so much. It really is hard and it’s a process. I know I’ll be okay in the end and that she will be too. Love from me to your family.

    Having a tough time

    @katrina2017 Thank you! I have an IRL friend who had a similar journey to yours — it took 5 years to settle into the reality. I’m so glad you’ve gotten help as well and that you have your son.

    Having a tough time

    @sofiahh Thank you so much! We are just crazy about her — she’s a happy, sweet kid who makes being a parent easy. I’m so excited to take her on trips once we’re all set with potty training! For now it’s easy to get her out of the house to the playground or pool and I’m so grateful after seeing...

    @brokenandconfused Thanks friend. It really does help sometime to lean into the emotion a bit in order to get through it.

    Having a tough time

    @gio2907 You really are. I went to tennis and lunch and a bday party and I’m back to read all these sweet comments — and to reply to yours, which I saw first and was so touched by. Thank you.

    Having a tough time

    Hey all. I’m one and done because of infertility — I barely got my little girl here. A year of trying naturally, a couple rounds of Clomid, two rounds of IVF: one no mature eggs and a mean doc who told me I’d never conceive and the second with seven eggs, two embryos and one precious girl. She’s...
