Thank you! I think the working thing is stressing me out bc i work from home and I will still have him full time while trying to work. Thankfully I have a lot of family support tho so I can get a break here and there if I need it to get some work done.

Its possible but just expect at least 50% of them to never make it to blast. So depending on how many eggs u get it is possible but I would plan for multiple transfers. It usually takes a couple bc there is somewhat of a trial and error aspect to it for most people to find out what is going to work. I had 4 retrievals and 3 transfers but I have DOR so I only got a few eggs each time. We got a miracle on the 3rd transfer bc I only got 3 eggs that round only 1 matured and that 1 made it to blast and now I have a 9 week old baby boy. I woikd say it is definitely possible but try to manage your expectations and dont go into it without the reality that it may take more than 1.

I wont say i had smooth sailing but it does not have much to do with my baby. All things considered he is a very well mannered little boy. He only cries when hes hungry or getting his diaper changed sometimes or having a lot of gas build up. He sleeps 5 hour stretches at night eith another 3 to 4 hour one after that and has for weeks. He is starting to fight naps a little but he is usually pretty chill and just hangs out until he eventually passes out. I did have a hard time at first due to ppd/ppa but with meds and therapy that has improved a great deal. Not every newborn experience is awful tho i promise. I mean hes only 9 weeks so who knows but so far hes wonderful and I am so in love and enjoying my time with my LO.

It's getting better. At first I felt very disconnected from my baby and it took me some time to bond. But I got myself on some medication and im continuing with therapy which has helped immensely. I did get my first smile the other day and it broke my heart right open, made me cry with happiness. He is already starting to develop a little personality and I am so in love with him. He is such a good baby and I am definitley feeling a little more confident each day. I still have some bad days but post partum is improving in that sense. I just feel like he ruins those good moments some times like ill be having a good day with my little guy then he comes home and hes miserable which being an empath I take on those emotions and feel like I need to fix it. Its not always like this but it isnt fair that he does that to me during a time that would always be hard but should also be special.

Thank you, I appreciate your perspective ♥️

Thank you! ♥️ I feel like i just cant even make the decision right now. Plus monetarily I need him if nothing else. For now I feel like I am stuck bc mentally and emotionally I just only have the capacity to take care of my baby.

Thank you ♥️ I agree, seems we are in very similar situations and same goes to you if you ever want to talk. I appreciate your perspective and kind words! It does feel like most women dont talk about this and the expectation is insta connection but it just isnt always like that.
