No babies = no more us

Well I've been married 7 years with infertility problems. Our last unsuccessful attempt was ivf #1. My marriage is at its end since my husbands over the top obessions with babies has drove me insane and really depressed. I have grown sick and tired of hearing maybe this wasn't meant to be and I had this feeling all along by him. I feel used by this man, that I poured my love and soul into. I don't think he's the right guy for me and I am truly blessed to have him out of my life. I am ready to move on at the age of 27. I am just letting u ladies know because babies are not the foundation of happy relationships and marriages. Two people who love each other should live their lifetime together and if a baby comes then oh yeah more joy. But regardless a true man will love u with or without a baby. I am done obessing over babies because my heart has been in pain for so long and I am done crying for this baby and this man. Good luck ladies.

Well Said!!

Yes, a baby should not the foundation of marriage. I am thankful for my husband. He tells me that if I can't get pregnant that doesn't make half a woman, and that yes he would love for me to get pregnant but if I can't we can always adopt, besides he said" I married you because I love you not because I just wanted a child" Ladies if your man keep nagging you or makes you feel bad because you can't get pregnant that man is not good for you, so get the hell out!!!

Somewhat in the same boat...

Well, I am somewhat in the same boat as you, only differently. I am sitting here and I feel like my heart is literally breaking....2 weeks before doing IVF #1 I have decided to not go through with it and to divorce my husband. I have waited and prayed 10 loooong years for the ability to do IVF. I have all the medicine sitting on the table in front of me, the contract with the check to send to the shared risk program I was accepted in to, and I have decided tonight to NOT go through with it. This decision is not only the most difficult decision I have ever made, it is also the most un-selfish (I hope). I feel as if someone is standing in front of me with a check for a billion dollars and I am turning it down. I know in my heart that I won't spend the rest of my life with my husband so I can't put an innnocent baby through living with a broken family. We have been separated off and on for two years, and have been together again for the past 9 months. I've battled with Stage IV endometriosis for 10 years, tried many attempts at IUI, Super-OV and had one miscarriage. I am 38 yrs old and feel this was my last chance at having a baby. I just realized I am babbling here and have made no point at all....sorry!!!! I just had to write something, somewhere to express what I am feeling. Sorry for the book, I wish you the very best on your decision.

Man man man they are so insentive!!!

Well, I am sorry to hear that some husbands are just acting like jerks!!! Sometimes is better to get out of a relationship that is not stable enough, so if you know that your marriage is not in good shape. Then why would you want to bring a baby to this worl in an household like that? I agree with: behappy.

I like your point of view, and I agree with you 100%.
