Hi, I too am a step mom of 4 years to two wonderful boys. They really are great kids and I enjoy their company. For years it has been challenging not to burst into tears at parties. I would see children everywhere and I could not connect with other women. It was tough, still is. But I step back from the situation and see that I am grateful to have my husbands children around rather than none at all. We are still trying and hoping and praying. I just had my 39th birthday and am waiting and waiting to see if we are pregnant by the end of this week. Last month I made myself crazy with 4 pregnancy tests. We are doing IUI. I had 4 follicles, 62 million swimmers and no baby - I was so sure I was pregnant with so many strange things happening to my body- just convinced myself and trying to keep everything positive. This month I had one follicle and 60+ million swimmers. We shall see
