We had our beautiful baby at the beginning of the year. She truly feels like our miracle baby after 10 years of trying, miscarriages, failed IVF attempts, she was worth every bit of heartbreak we went through.
We still have 1 frozen embryo to use and I always assumed we would want another child but now we are not sure. Our main concern is money, we need to use a nursery 2 days a week for our baby and we are not sure if we will be able to afford to do this for 2 children. My MIL looks after her 1 day a week for us which we are so grateful for but she is not in the best health and worry she would not be able to help as much over the coming years and don't want to to add any extra stress to her. Also going through a frozen embryo transfer/medication can be costly too.
On the other side we have this little frozen embryo waiting for us and feel he/she should be given the chance. It made it through the IVF process and is a good quality (although we know nothing is certain it may not implant anyway). We also would like a sibling for our baby to grow up with and be there when they are older and we are gone. I had always pictured having 2 kids even before having to go through the IVF process. I worry that if we don't at least try we will always wonder what could have been.
Anyone ever been in this situation and if so what did you do?
