Done

For those of you keeping score, it�s now

Baby Black Hole � 10

Me � 0

Yes, I�ve crapped out 10 times now and my IUI doc warned me that IVF might be our only option at this rate. And, since there�s no way in hell we can afford that, I think we�re probably done.

Done with the needles, with giving blood, with invasive ultrasounds and worry, the sleepless nights, the OCD checking of the calendar, counting out days and having anxiety attacks on certain days of the month every time I go to the washroom. Done with sperm washing, done with watching my diet and having others watch my diet, done with keeping things quiet because they may not work out, done with any chance of ever having a baby naturally.

Done.
