Hi Cynthia,
We have four children. Our kids are 13 down to 5. My kids are very good kids. I love our family and the size of our family. I respect that you want more children.
IF stress is a trigger for you I just wanted to share with you from my personal kid/family experience - it is still stressful. (My husband has IBS-A).
It is a different kinds of stress for the parents as the children get older. In the begining your tired from lack of sleep and doing everything for each child. Then each child emereges into their own person with their own struggles. friends, choices, grades, acne, making the team, not making the team, after school schedules, worry, fears, etc....
Our life when they were younger was crazy busy  two of my girls are 11 months apart. Now I find they need me and my husband in such a different but no less demanding way.
I am sorry that the Atkins diet made you so sick.
I hope this helps I hope the pain goes away for you so you can ge out and exercise. It sounds like that really gave you energy and peace.
I do know that when my husband feels ill. He goes out and rides his bike no matter what at first it was scary for him. Being away from home when not feeling well. Now he knows that he can deal with what every might come his way.
I don't know if any of this helps...I found that I am talking more about me then you. Sorry about that!
Take Care,
Lefty
