just my opinion...

a mother with 2 1/2 year old twin boys shouldn't have to go through infertility treatments again to have more babies.  she shouldn't have to go twice a week for a year to a chinese acupuncturist, get her first natural cycle since she started her period, only to have it stop again once they switched the treatment plan to trying to get pregnant.  she shouldn't have to give herself injections every night for the first two weeks of her cycle, go in 3 or 4 times for labs and an ultrasound to monitor her follicles.  she shouldn't have to subject her husband and sweet boys to her awful mood swings, wondering why she's doing all of this in the first place.  but she does.  because when it's all said and done, all of this is nothing compared to how good those babies are.  in the words of her husband -- there isn't anything i see us doing or going through that isn't worth those boys.  and even though she had a really, really rough day, she knows he's right.
