Goodbye "The Nest"...

Well, I have decided to take a break from "The Nest". "The Nest" is an online community of women who have been my rock and my strength as John and I moved forward through our three IUI and two IVF procedures. These girls have done the same tests, have been poked and prodded in the same locations, have taken the same medications and felt the same side effects, and have been wonderful. But I need a break. The more and more I think about the posts on the nest, the more and more I get sad. Not sad for the girls, but sad that John and I can't "graduate" over to the success board. Some days I feel like it will never happen, and I guess today is just one of those days. I've been on the tttc board for one year. One year this week, in fact, and that makes me sad.

So, I'm taking a break. I am going to try to not "lurk" on any board and give myself a true break. That way, when it is time for IVF #2, then maybe I'll have a fresh perspective toward our procedures and will want to be back on the board.

So if any of my nest friends are reading this...I hope you understand and you know how to keep in touch with me, and I will look forward to keeping in touch with you, it will just be off the board.

I so sorry Kristen. I wish I could help but I know what will and can't do anything about it. Just concentrate on your other goals and come back ready for IVF #2. (((Hugs))) It will happen, it just takes time!
