There'sHope28,
So good to see you here. I am an Alabam girl living in Washington State. It just comforts me to have someone like you here. We southern gals understand the culture and lives associated with each other.
We are taking a 2nd try at IVF. The 1st ended in a Chemical preg. Before that we had 3 failed IUI's. And even before that I had miscarried twins at 3.5 months that were concieved naturally. This is really beginning to drain us, both emotionally and financially. Seattle is very expensive and we are by no means wealthy. We've had to take a loan out against our house and put money on credit cards (which we never did before). My best friend just "accidentally" got pregnant. I am so excited for her, but inside so jealous. Hate feeling that way. I want to be a mama more than anything. This will be our 2nd fresh cycle. The drugs/stress have caused me to go from a size 6 to a size 12 over the past year. Everything makes me cry. I just want to curl into a ball sometimes. Sorry, I know that is a lot of info. I just had to get it off my chest. All of my family still lives in the south and I wish they were here. I love my husband dearly, but sometimes I just need an outside source to vent to. Thanks for being a source
