I want to give up

Bethany

A little back story I have a 10 year old son from a previous relationship and spend 6 years of my life as a single mom. Four years ago my partner came in to my life and I knew everything was complete... well for me it was. I sat down and had a conversation with him about getting my tubes tied 13 months ago and that conversation brought us to the fact that he wants a child of his own. I knew that was a possibility which is why I discussed the possibility of getting my tubes tied before I did it.

Well now we are 13 months in to trying, unexplained infertility and one miscarriage. We are on cycle one of letrozole and can only do 5 more. I had to have surgery twice throughout this process, one hysteroscopy, one D&C and went on a diet and lost 30 pounds to get healthy for this whole process. I’m just so frustrated with the fact that he can’t do any of this it has to be me. I love my son and I love being a mother but I don’t know that I have it in me mentally or physically to keep testing every month. I am going to go forward with the letrozole and the next 5 months but if we don’t get anywhere I am going to have to tell him the truth. I can’t handle anymore loss or testing. <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> is out of the question for me. I’m afraid he won’t take it very well but he loves me and my son and we both adore him. I don’t know that he would leave us but he would definitely regret not trying everything. I’m just so drained from all of this.
