Chapter Two: Deciding what to do

My husband and I tried not to get too down-spirited, and we kept trying. We took a long trip abroad and gave a lot of time to each other. But still I just did not get pregnant again. In the meantime, the grief over the two losses had eased a little, but the desire to have children became ever more acute. Every month I descended into a deep gaping hole. I saw pregnant women wherever I looked and I even broke off contact with a number of good friends because they had small children. In retrospect, I must say that was the right thing to do. I spoke openly with most friends about our situation, so they could understand me up to a point. In difficult situations, one has to protect oneself and not expose oneself to further cruel situations.
