Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 e, Can you sit down with DH and explain to him your feelings about another baby? He needs to know how important this is to you and you all need to make a decision together. I mean it really is not that much to the insemenation part of the procedure... What did he think the doctor was going to say? I think that you need to go to him with how you are feeling and tell him that together you all need to make some decisions, otherwise there is going to be resentment from you towards him if not taken care of. I am sorry that you have to go thru this. We don't have any kids so whatever has been suggested we have tried. And now here we are at IVF.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 Hang in there e!!! I wonder if DH was just really really embarrassed at the dr.'s office, they are so sensitive about their sperm, really!! Sit down later and have a talk with him, I wouldn't want to do the clomid behind his back either. I bet he will come around and agree to the clomid. I'm sorry to hear about your Dad too!

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 e, Honey, I am so sorry you are going through this !!! Life can be so unfair! I really think you and DH need to be in agreement on the issue though (although it is easy for me to say, as I have never been in your shoes). If it helps at all, your DH is not the only one who feels that way. Mine would never go along w/ any IF treatments, his reasoning being the same. We have already been blessed w/ 2 beautiful children and if we need any kind of assistance to conceive then it is not God's will for us to have any more. I am reasonably sure he would not feel that way if we didn't have any children, which makes it all the more frustrating. You and DH and especially your father are in my prayers. I wish there was more I could do for you, but I can pray. Take Care Kendall > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 e, You just have so much on your plate right now... I can see how you're getting so upset. Well, I'm sure your dh's decision would be upsetting even if nothing else was going on. I can't really tell you what to do about it but I can tell you what I'd do... if it would help. I think the secrecy might would be really hard on you and in fact make you more upset than you are... but I know that you don't want to give up on this. Does your dh give any reason for not wanting to do it this way? Is it possible that more talking may lead the two of you to a mutual decision? The only thing that comes to mind when reading that he doesn't want to go through all of that is he thinks that the whole thing may become stressful. I think we all know that as each cycle passes, we become more and more obsessed and maybe he doesn't want add stress to your lives. Honestly, I could've seen telling me the same thing if we had more than and he knew that it wouldn't be the last straw for me. When I was crying that we'd never have another he was always very quick to tell me that at least we do have one beautiful daughter and if we never get anymore then she'd be enough. My guess is that your dh just doesn't want the whole ttc thing to become an obsession... but you'll never know this if you and he never get a chance to talk about things. Does he work weekends? Maybe if he's off then you can get someone to take the girls for a day while the two of you have a whole day to try to come to an agreement... I hope the two of you can come to a decision soon that you can live with. I know this must be an extremely hard time for you. ((((HUGS)))) Amy 21w 1d Post~Op update!!

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 e, OMG sweetie - it never rains it pours! I think you need to sit down with dh when the girls are in bed and have a real heart to heart. Tell him exactly how you are feeling and that you would never want to dishonest or do anything behind his back. But that this is something that you have wanted so long (which I'm sure he is aware of) that it would break your heart to give up without at least trying the clomid! Why did you go through with the surgery if you weren't at least going to ttc after? Maybe with some reasoning in a calm environment (without the dr present), he might understand better! I'm also so sorry to hear about your Dad. But keep your chin up sweetie, it might work this time. I'm keeping you all in my prayers. Love & hugs, Jo-Ann Post~Op update!!

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 Dear e, Geez Sweetie... I'm so sorry to hear abut DH's reaction to treatment. I agree with the others though, you just really need to sit down and have a heart to heart with him. I think he'll come around. A lot of men get spooked by the whole insemination thing, but you taking Clomid isn't that invasive at all. I'm terribly sorry your Dad isn't responding to the Chemo right now. It sounds as though he's in good care and I hope the DR's can get the treatment just right for him really soon. {{{HUGS}}} PS: I'm praying for you dear!

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 e I hope your dh comes around and changes his mind. Why did he let you go through w/the surgery if he wasn't going to go on to the next level. I would try and sit down and talk to him. Sometimes it takes guys a little longer to come around.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 e, Oh I wish I could make it better for you, you are going through so much and I know how much you want another little one. I think Amy could be on to something...maybe your dh doesn't want to become obsessed with ttc. I hope you two can talk and you can explain to him how important this is to you. You are happy to be blessed with the children you have but you feel your family isn't complete yet. Maybe you could come up with some kind of compromise, you know, have your dh try the Clomid and all for a certain about of time, maybe 6 months or so. I don't know, just an idea. I wish I could make it better for you. Please try to take care of yourself. I am praying for you and your family. Re: Post~Op update!!
