There's a lot of truth in your truth you have revealed here today, Erica.

It's a hard road we tread but let me tell you from my own experience, the reward at the end of the transitioning process, the rainbow, is extremely satisfying and fulfilling and though you will have many regrets, the one regret that you won't have, is regret that you went through with your transition.

Welcome to Pe, the trans friendly site that is without doubt the premier and most informative site available.

I don't call it the " University of Pe " for nothing.

It is a wonderful learniing site.

Enjoy.

But it does illuminate how close to the reality of the situation you are staying.  Many people in your position would have that starry-eyed everything will mork out fine kinda look and will be devestated when the reality hits the fan.  Good for you, your SO and hopefully your children.  I wish you the best on your journey and hope you continuue to keep both feet firmly planted on the ground.

If your wife is as understanding as you say. Please give her time to wrap her head around the situation she is in.   Gender identity is a huge and unexpected concept to try to understand. There are good books on the subject and suport groups out there.  My therapist is a great believer in taking it slow. I know there comes a point in our lives when we just have to move forward. If you realy value your family don't give up on your wife too soon.  Many spouses these days are staying with their TG husbands through transition even though it isn't easy.

  Any way best whishes for you as you go foward with transition. 

Love Donna
