Sorry if this is in the wrong place, I couldn't quite decide where to place this but I thought those who have been through infertility and come out the other side might understand best?
Currently pregnant through IVF (male factor issues). Fingers firmly crossed everything continues to go well and we have a healthy, happy baby in the end.
But we've also been thinking of what we want to do after baby is here. I have other older dc already, but this is first baby with DH. This baby is very much yearned for after years of ttc.
We wouldn't be actively looking to try again, not with the same desperation we had this time at least. But I suppose it feels strange to then be planning to use contraception for after when the chances of natural conception aren't with us anyway?
We wouldn't be upset at an unexpected pregnancy, both would be thrilled in fact once the shock wore off (and once we'd got our head around being a 'large' family). Also, on the other side, I don't think we'd be heartbroken for our family to now be complete.
What did you do after you were technically 'done' ttc?
