Gonna stop trying...

I've decided that my husband and I are under a lot of stress so we're going to stop trying to conceive for a while. I don't really know how long that's going to be, but things just aren't working out in that area of our life and I'm feeling really down about it. I mean depressed really. It's been 13 months and things haven't gone the way I thought they would. So we're going to take it easy and just enjoy life. I will continue the Chinese herbs and will add in the acupuncture for relaxation. I've stopped the charting and temperature taking (as a matter of fact I've shredded all my paper charts and tossed my thermometer) and just everything and I'm simply going to live life and try to relax about things. I know that there will be children in our future because I know I'm healthy, just not now.

On a more positive note, my husband has just accepted a job position in Portland, Maine! So we'll be moving in 2 weeks. Basically, we're going to pay someone to pack our house and move it to our new home. We'll be going in a week to the area to look for a house to rent for now. We really want to get to know the area before we decide on a neighborhood to move into. I'm very excited about our move so I'm looking forward to getting to know another community and enjoying our life close to the shore.
