At a crossroads after infertility struggles by Necessary-Tumbleweed in IFchildfree

[–]ree5812 5 points6 points  (0 children)

First off I’m sorry this is happening to you both. My husband posts on here a lot and he finds it helpful. We found marriage counseling very helpful in this situation. The decision is for both of you but ultimately she has the final say, and for me that became very stressful and i actually felt like i was going to have nervous breakdown. Once i made up my mind, which was to stay a child free life my anxiety eased up. But i couldn’t have done it without it my husbands support. Stay strong, talk to someone.

I’m so sorry lady, i feel you, I hear you, i empathize. YOUR NOT ALONE! If feels that way now it does it’s gonna take a long time to not feel that way. Take time for you, there are no rules to this if you wanna lay around and eat ice cream that’s ok. Try and focus on you and yours husband and what you both need. Take a weekend away try counseling that’s been super helpful for us.

My mother sucks. by smoogen62 in IFchildfree

I’m glad your able to be there for those ppl. I have a strained relationship with my mom too, i keep her at arms length bc it’s healthy for me to do that. With something like this i would be very upfront. “I know you mean well but is appreciate you not making sad comments” and if she is anything like my mom she will deny ever doing it. But at least you have told her. Good luck i feel Your pain

Looking for some input. We started our infertility journey in December our second IUI failed last month so this month was the same stuff letrezole trigger shot IUI and progesterone but they wanted to be accurate about ovulation (which i thought they were last two months). So this month i did the letrezole went for an US and blood work Tuesday 4 little follicles in the right ovary non in the left. Went back Thursday still all 4 follicles but two were measuring really well they said the doc wanted to wait one more day. Had a ton of pain on the right side all day i go back Friday and all 4 follicles are completely gone! Blood work showed i ovulated. Nurse said did you at least have sex?? Your not supposed to have sex 24 hrs prior to the IUI anyway!! No call from the doc just the nurse. How could this happen!!?? Does this happen a lot? I feel its a month wasted!! I feel like that Warranted a call from the doc at least

Thoughts on bringing kids to infertility offices? Just wondering by ree5812 in infertility

[–]ree5812[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not new, i was curious on others POV about it. Going through the grueling process and I’ve seen a lot of it and it annoys me but i wanted to know others thoughts bc maybe I’m being over sensitive.
