The final IVF decision

[Caramello]

For those that have followed our journey, I thought I would tell you the last phase.

After long and careful consideration, DH and I have decided that DS will be our one and only child.

DH and I signed the paperwork this evening to destroy the last of our known donor sperm donation.

We were a bit teary, but felt that this was the right choice for our family.

Thanks to all that followed our story and supported us.

Caramello I haven't followed your journey, but I can sympathise with your decision, and how tough it must have been to make.
Big hugs xx

hugs babe. I can not begin to imagine how hard that decision was for you both, but I can understand why...

Totally in a different ball park, but when we decided that we were done, and DH had the snip it was something I needed to grieve. Still hurts me to know that my family is complete, and my gestating days are over. Sending you love and support. Give your spunky little guy a big kiss for me. xoxoxoxoxoxo

That must have been a huge decision to make and one not made lightly Sometimes doing the 'right' thing is often the hardest.

Huge huge hugs xxxx

I knew you had made the decision, but that final step of signing the paperwork would have been so hard

I agree with Ruf (although we haven't gotten there to talk from experience)... It would most definately be something you need to grieve to gain closure.

Thinking of all 3 of you, and lots and lots of love as always xxxxxx

Wish you peace with your decision and all the best to the three of you

I can only imagine that it's a very hard step to take and i would imagine you need to reflect and grieve as that chapter closes. DS is lucky to have you as his mum and dad, and your family is a beautiful one

Sending you and your gorgeous family loads of love and strength.

let yourself grieve as you need to.

Caramello i agree with the others it is a big thing even when its the right thing, but i think sometimes the grief is even for the loss of lifestyle living in the AC TTC world for so long is such a huge thing and sometimes i know i am scared of stepping out of it and wondering who we are without TTC. Thankyou for sharing every step of your journey with us
