[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two cycles isn't that many.

Three fresh, three frozen to get to my baby.

Only you can figure out what you're willing and able to do.

Good luck.[/quote]

Agree. We said we would do 4 going into it. That seemed my emotional max, but I know people who have done WAY more with many many miscarriages. I can't even imagine the pain. Yet... They have twin 5 year old girls now. I imagine much of that pain is a distant sight in the rear view mirror at this point.

I know it's all very personal, but in my opinion, if you want a baby, then you need to keep trying for a baby (one way or another.) doing nothing will never get you a baby, but each round of IVF "might" bring you a baby, DE "might" get you a baby, adoption "might" get you a baby, surrogacy "might" get you a baby. giving up for good is not going to get you a baby. Clearly, the emotional toll starts to wear on you and maybe a break for a specified time or trying another route might be in the cards.

Someone on the expectant moms thread posted interesting advice about a life event she was grappling with: she was told (and did) to look at your life and then fast forward it... 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, 10 years.... If you can really see a child free happy life in 10 years, then perhaps stopping though is the right approach for you? [/quote]
