Called it quits.

Yes, I finally surrendered...

Jake was with me for the appointment, and overall things went pretty much as I expected.

IUI would probably work, but Jake won't do it. It seems that my CM is the only factor against us for the past 3 years. That being said...It has been 3 years. My GYN doctor feels that I have a 1% chance each month of conceiving without any assistance.

So either Jake and I do IUI, or we might as well quit. Jake won't hear of IUI. PERIOD. As far as me, I don't see having large cysts, dealing with cramps and long periods, for what??? It's not like I'm going to get pregnant, anyway???

So I gave up...I'm not happy about it, but I don't see any other way to maintain a sense of 'peace' within myself and my marriage. It took 3 years too long to find the problem. It's that simple, really!

I am going on Levora. It is the same pill that I was on for the 8 years prior to trying to conceive. I go back in September for my annual Pap and pelvic.

I'm just trying to accept things. On one side, I don't feel I have a choice. On the other, I feel like I gave it 3 years...It's not like I only gave it 6 months...It's been a longgggg day. I'm really ready for some rest now. I couldn't even hold it together at the GYN doctor appointment...<img src="i/expressions/heart.gif" border="0">

On another note, my period is due either Wednesday or Thursday so I will be starting the pill VERY SHORTLY!

I'm so sorry <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0"> I still think that you and Jake need to go to marriage counseling. Why should you have to "give in" to maintain the peace so he can have his way? You are going to be resentful of him and he is going to act like nothing is wrong. I can't see this heading in a positive direction...

But all that being said, you need to do what you need to do. Good luck in whatever direction this part of your life takes you. My heart is broken for you.
