I'm so hurt right now. he still thinks he was saying he wasn't completey ready ttc but his mouth and words said differently.
but it's over.
No more babies, the monitor has been reset and it's all getting sold. I feel like I've suffered another loss.
thanks for all the support. I'll probably just lurk since I don't really have a reason for being here.
I pray for all you that all your dreams come true.

I am so sorry you are going through this... We got to that point and I had given up when we ended up with a very huge surprise BFP a few months later!
((Hugs)) you are more than welcome to stay here, as you can tell I don't always stay on topic

Im sorry Pamela. I know exactly what you mean, and it really does feel like another loss doesnt it? And you know what? It is. It absolutely is another loss. You are going to grieve for the loss of the dreams and hopes you have started for your next baby, joining your family. Sometimes men suck, who says they should be able to have that final decision anyway? (I know I know, it needs to be a joint decision, but come on!) Your wants need to be addressed as well!
You are welcome to stay here with us, in case you havent noticed, we are tough to leave behind!

Oh Pamela, I'm so sorry.  Tobi's right, it is a very real and valid loss. I'm sorry that it's so one-sided, but it always seems to be in these things.

I am very sorry you are going through this. Never say never, maybe in time he will change his mind. We had shut down the idea of more kids since my daughter has significant special needs with no diagnosis. They couldn't tell us if it would happen again and honestly, I couldn't handle it physically if I had two with those kinds of needs. Now that my 40th is approaching in a month we have decided to wing it and go for it. The idea of her having a sibling to speak for her when we are gone outweighed the fear of having another  We had decided against it for seven years. So, see, never say never. Hang in there sweetie.

So sorry to hear this, Pamela. Like the other ladies said, it is a very real loss, so give yourself time to grieve and heal. Please stick around - we'd miss you if you left!

I'm so sorry. I do know how it feels. My DH was set against anymore babies but he never did anything permanent so I just never said anything about it and in time, he came around. I hope your DH just needs some time. I agree about not leaving though. This group of ladies are hard to leave.

Everyone else has already put it so well... I'm sorry DH is putting you through all of this, and it's definitely a valid loss, one that you have every right to grieve over. Hopefully everything reverses soon and you guys will continue to grow your family. Please don't go!

Pamela I am so sorry DH is being unfair like that.. Sometimes I hate when guys do that.. Like they are all that matters and what we want dosen't.. That is similar to what I am going through with my DH.. After 4 losses he tells me that he really isn't ready for another one, but I think there is more to it.. He makes different excuses for different things.. I want to offer huge hugs. Do hang around.. It is still great to have the support when you need it..

You ladies are so amazing.
I was looking at getting a new buggy for Gabriella and the car seat adaptors are on sale. Dirt cheap. He saw them and I just said it's not like we'll need them anyway and he said don't count things out just yet.
I don't know, I'm just trying to stay strong and stuff like this makes it so hard.
I'll def stick around, I want to be here when you all get your positives!
Thanks so much for the support, means so much to me.
