Our Story...

My husband & I have been married for 8 years & have been trying to conceive for the last 7.5. I have PCOS and hubby has an ok count but it's not great. We've had several tests, procedures and consultations that have led us down the road to one heartbreak after another. Right now we are currently awaiting the birth of our baby girl due to the miracle that is adoption. We couldn't be more excited!!!

Rough Time

The hubs and I are having a rough time. A really rough time. Infertility is hard. It's REALLY hard. It's physically hard, emotionally hard, financially hard and just down right miserable sometimes. Everything is just really starting to wear on me.

I had a meeting on Thursday with HR at work. They basically informed me that if I keep having to miss work to go to my dr appts (for our IVF) then I will be fired. They said they can't forbid me to go to my doctor appts they said that I have to use personal/vacation time for every minute that I'm not at work and that as soon as my time is used up I will be fired if I use any more time. Needless to say I am not pleased. I want to place my two week notice on Monday, but I'm not sure where I will work. I can't afford to be completely without a job, plus I carry the health insurance for both J and I (his company is too small that they don't offer insurance). So in the mean time I feel stuck and very stressed.

Then on top of all the work stuff the hubs and I are at a crossroads. I am the type of person that likes to talk things out and share my feeling and emotions. The hubby is the opposite. He deals with things in his own way... or at least i assume he does since he doesn't like to talk to me about it. :( This makes things even harder on me. Since I don't know what he's feeling or thinking it makes me feel very alone in the whole struggle. I want to talk to him about my work stuff and I want to talk to him about the dr appts and I want to talk to him about my fears/worries for IVF and I want to talk to him about what comes next if it doesn't work or even if it does....

It's just so much to deal with by myself and the fact that I don't know if my husband will be next to me for any of this makes it even scarier.

Please pray for us.
