Can I jump in? I'm not really sure yet if this is the place for me. Kirsten out DD was 2 in March. We TTC'd with her for almost 3 years and 1 sucessfull iui. DH has IF issues with no chance of conceiving ever so we used a donor. We have been TTC again since "K" was born in hopes his new meds would help things and have been iui for the last 3 months with a donor again. We cannot afford IVF or I would do that in a heartbeat and our insurance covers no IF at all. I was a 2 only growing up (6 years older than my DB) and really didn't expect that "K" would be any only. Sorry for all the undecidedness but I just found out this morning that our last attempt at iui has failed and I am still trying to make peace and find out where my family will fit into this world. I feel somehow broken and ashamed. We found a way past DH's IF problems and now we can't get past mine. Hoping that I find some peace and that this can be my new home.

Hi
I'm Traci single mom to Brendan who's 3 but will be 4 in August .I never thought I would end up as a single parent because we had ttc but I guess after 2 losses my ex got used that he wasn't going to be a 'real father' then finally when it happened it annoyed him too much that he wasn't any help to us and i was already in severe depression due to him not supporting me during my pregnancy as in being there so when brendan was 6 months i left him.

I would love to have another maybe if I meet a 'better guy down the 'road'
