What Do You Mean I’m Pregnant Again?

May 17 2015

With our youngest child at almost two years of age and already three children in our family; the last thing we were expecting and if I’m being totally honest, really wanted was another baby. You may remember me blogging about the screaming of ovaries but the head being so much more reasonable, well basically throw that out the window because it doesn’t really matter at this point. Unplanned Pregnancy – Now What? With each of my pregnancies, each time I brushed my teeth in the morning I would get that horrible nauseous feeling that was shortly followed by throwing up (mostly it was just phlegm or vile – too much information – I know) as I had a shower before doing anything else, there wasn’t much else that could come up.

You know that moment between knowing you are SO done with having more babies and getting rid of the very last pieces of baby furniture you will ever have? And you stop for a second. You think… What’s one more? I had this feeling when B1 was a baby. I knew I wanted more than just one child but it was when he went from the cot to a bed and starting doing things for himself that I really wanted another one.

The words IVF are often dreaded and yet welcomed by couples who have been trying to conceive, but have had no success. Plagued with the misconception that it is always a financially draining experience that comes with a lot of uncertainty, it puts a negative outlook on something that should be embraced. Having the option available of this fertility treatment is nothing short of amazing. Of course the financial aspect has to be considered when exploring this avenue to have a baby however there are some clinics that are less expensive than the alternative options available.
