nicker= bummer about the one job but yay about the other.. and im withhopeful.. what happened about being a mom?
 
Well the dream is still there. The new job is going to mean insane hours and lots of stress. This job is stepping stone toward the other job. Even if I really like this job and want to stay in it, I will have to reapply next year. If I wanted to stay in that position and got it again perhaps I would do IVF next summer. But I'll be 40 next summer. If there is a position open for the other job I want (counselor) and I got it I would have to get a Masters degree and I couldn't afford tuition and a baby. There is a very low turn over rate with the position I really want as there are only an handful of counselors in the school district and they are all young with roots here. We do have one in our school that I think will be moving in to administration in the next year or two. I really want to be a mom, but that happening isn't a sure thing. I can't pass up the dream career opportunities for a dream that might not happen cause then maybe I am left with no dreams fulfilled. Does that make sense? Also, if I wait a year I would have to get referred to the re all over again. Maybe I am wrong. Maybe I need to take this year and save for IVF an just do that next summer and say crew the dream job.
 
I get where you mind is running Nicker. I think its definately going to take more thought than just a spur decision. Being a mom is a time limited thing, unless adoption was on the table. Your dream job is something that could come up more than once but it's a risk. Perhaps trying this new job to see if you love it is the answer to help making your decision. We all make sacrifices for children. It was hard giving up my position once may leave ended, but in the end I'd do whatever I can that's best for my children. I can be me focused later. I'm a smart woman who's never had issue getting employ and moving up quickly. That won't change, and a few years from now I will get back to work. For now, my family is my number one concern.
 
I got my 2nd beta numbers back and in 72 hours, they just barely doubled. I am so worried but I'm trying to stay positive. I have another beta Wed night so I'm praying the numbers more than double!!!!!

Wow twins!!!!! And you saw an heartbeat? Oh wow!!!! We didnt see/hear one until 6 weeks and 4 days!!!!!! Congrats on the twins!!!!
 
it was literally like you had a pixel going bad on your screen.. ie all you could see was the little 'sparkle' kinda look of it coming and going. it looked slow to me but that is cause im used to looking at the later gestation ones.
 
Dr. Squid: Holy cow! Twins with healthy HBs?!?! What fantastic news!

AMP: congrats on the doubling HCGs! Yipppeeeee!

Nicker: Congrats about the job but sorry about the job/motherhood dilemma. I wish it was easier for us women to have both without compromising one. I hope you feel comfortable with whatever decision you make without being worried that you are giving up on one dream.
 
Congrats AMP..... wishing you a happy and very healthy 9 months,,,,
everything will work out,,,,, :hugs:
