    Hi,
    Me, and I my husband have been trying to have a baby for over three and half years. We have been thought six IUI in the last 7 months. It has been so frustrating, stressful, and heartbreak. I have been so--- tried of going to the clinic every morning. After the last IUI I have giving up. How long should we go on like this? When do you draw the line?

    have you tried acupuncture - after two years of trying i went for acupuncture and was pregnant in three months.....but as i look back i think God had a greater plan and the timing was a lot better than when we thought it was the right time - but I've used acupuncture for other issues and it is amazing

    I havn't myself had to deal with this issue but I agree 100% with Lakerat...Relax, stress is a huge problem when trying to concieve... I know this because my own mother experienced the same issue...She has three kids now, my sister is 30, I'm 20 and have a 10 year old little brother...Meaning it took 10 years between each of us.. She had a miscarriage when I was 6 and had been trying for almost 4 years at the time...it was another 4 years of trying before she got pregnant for my brother...

    My sister also had a child at 14 that she gave up for adoption due the circumstances that caused the pregnancy...the adoptive parents had been trying to concieve for 6 1/2 years, with not so much as a scare....5 months to the day she found out she was expecting a child of her own...

    I think the best advice is never give up hope...
    Take Care and Good Luck!

    What tips come you give me. I find with my work I really hard to get away from being and talk about babies.
    I work in a place where I teaches children, people talk about their babies, and getting pregnenat. I can not get away from it. I do walk away from it and my co workers know little bit what I am going though.
    I get realy angry and frustrated. What I am going to do? How can I relax?

    I am sorry for you struggle. It must be very hard. Another member suggested acupuncture. I have a friend who tried to get pregnant for years, did invitro (sp?) twice, didn't have any success. Went to an acupuncturist and got pregnant with twins. She told me that they don't know why it works with infertility but that there is a lot of documented success. Research it and see if it may be an option. Best of luck to you. I am sure you must be very frustrated.
