Moving to Iceland

After one week I will go back to Iceland. When we first moved here to North-Carolina, we planned to stay here for four to five years. We quickly realized that I wasn't going to survive being here not able to work and away from my friends and family for four years. So we decided that we would take year off. Originally the plan was to get pregnant, have the baby in Iceland and take one year off. Unfortunately that didn't work out. I feel like it was ages ago that we decided to try to have a family. I started to ween of my medication in December 2009, six months later we started to try. Therefore it has been more than 10 months since we started to try. I thought that I would be pregnant by now. Some days I get so sad and angry about this. The thing is I feel like because I have arthritis and had to give up a lot of things therefore it's only fair that I would be able to get pregnant quickly.



Now we're starting a new chapter. We have our first appointment with a fertility clinic in Iceland later this month. It was so expensive to do it here in USA that we couldn't afford  it. Hence we're moving back to Iceland for one year. There we will get pregnant with the help of the fertility clinic or at least that is what we hope to do.
