Hi everyone! This is my first post here. All that I've read so far is fascinating and helpful!
My husband and I have been married for 5 years this last Friday. We have a daughter that just turned 3 on our anniversary. We've been trying to have another baby for 2.5 years now and over the summer found out that I have endometriosis. I just finished a 3 month window that my ob/gyn has given me, but I'm not sure if I want to take the next step...which would be to do a treatment that would make me "menopausal" for 6 months (so that we could start "trying" again after that). I'm tired of being disappointed and would just love to have a baby. We have recently been thinking about adoption rather than more disappointing fertility treatments. We are worried about the cost in adopting mostly. Like most, I'm sure...no one wants to wait forever to have a child, or in our case another child!

Thanks for sharing! At least I don't feel alone about those shots! Somehow I know it will be a long 6 monthsif I decide to do it! I'm so on the fence about whether I want to even do that or not...I've been putting off calling my doctor. I'm really scared to become someone I'm not!!! I think that I would rather be sane without a 2nd child, than crazy, with hot flashes...and still possibly without a 2nd child! I've felt so pressured with all the "time" constraints that the endometriosis has suddenly brought on! I could just burst! Thanks for not letting me feel alone. I'm glad to hear that someone else leaned the adoption way. :thankyou:
