I do not even know if i will fit in this forum. I have 2 girls and my second one is a year old. I did tubal and now i am trying my best to convince my husband to go for a 3rd one thru MS/PGD.IVF for a boy (desperately dying to hold one). Whenever i see little boys my heart just skips a beat. I truly love my DDs but still. But just do not know how to convince my DH. Tried almost everythin. He did not want the second one but said need a company for the first one now i was disappointed that i did not get a boy..so what do u ladies think am i pushing my luck, shud i just give up...none of my family members supportme for having a 3rd one as i had 2 csections and gestational diabetes with insulin needle. but my heart still cries so hard to try thru hte high tech method..if it happens then happy or else will leave the hope...what do u ladies say...shud i just give up...i done know nobody around me supports me neither my husbands family nor my family...nor my husband..my 4 yr old is like mom are yu again going to go to hospiital for 3 days no...:)) so cute when she sayd that...but there goes by not a single moment totry once,,,sometimes i myself want to give hope as there is no way to procedd further without my dh support...what do i do...any  HELP

15 years from now will you look back and regret not going for that boy???

 

i agree..even readin this one liner brings tear to my eyes...i just cannot find a way to convice my dh....gosh i am just prayin to give me more stength...i am like so frustrated that i am like moving away from my family due to this issue...gosh this is such a torturing thing..i wish i cud just go to the doctors office and ask for an appointment myself without my dhs support...thanks for ur reply redcin...u wont believe i have been like glued to the computer to get a reply from someone...ur reply reallyhelps...atleast someone did readmy post thanks onceagain

this is the one question that made us try again.  We knew we would deeply regret not trying.  Now you need to get this threw your dh's thick skull

i do know that he loves boys..but he is so scared abt the finance and what if it turns out to be a girl...i just dont know how to clear his fear..when ever we get into this topic he runs away somehow and avoids talking to me abt it...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...do u think its too soon to talk to him abt it as my second one is just a 1 year old...am i pushing him...

pgd is 100%.  There is no.. what if its a girl... it WILL be a boy of you get a bfp.  The biggest problem will be the cost of PGD.  Maybe if you get a part time job and earn a little of it before talking again?  How old are you, do you have time to wait?  You need to make him undersand that this is a huge dream in your life.  A dream bigger than anything before and if you don't go for it you will be unfulfilled.

 i am 34 yo..that is a good suggestion getting a part time job...is 34 ok to wait or how much time do i have

ya I think you have a couple of years to earn the money.  But the closer you get to 40  the harder it is to get a bfp

 thanks alot redcin for ur support
