You are not alone, and if you need to vent please do! That is what we are here for. I can tell you though. do NOT give up hope of having a little one!!!! I have to tell myself that everyday!! Much love- Blaire
THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED TO TELL THOSE PEOPLE THAT THINK YOU NEED TO RELAX...Don't Tell Them to Relax Everyone knows someone who had trouble conceiving but then finally became pregnant once she "relaxed." Couples who are able to conceive after a few months of "relaxing" are not infertile. By definition, a couple is not diagnosed as "infertile" until they have tried unsuccessfully to become pregnant for a full year. In fact, most infertility specialists will not treat a couple for infertility until they have tried to become pregnant for a year. This year weeds out the people who aren't infertile but just need to "relax." Those that remain are truly infertile. Infertility is a diagnosable medical problem that must be treated by a doctor, and even with treatment, many couples will NEVER successfully conceive a child. Relaxation itself does not cure medical infertility. Telling a couple with known fertility problems to just “relax” is kin to telling a cancer patient to just “think positive”. It’s not only hurtful, but can be tragically demoralizing
Welcome to DS! I'm sure you'll find the support you need here!
We've tried two IUIs and it hasn't worked. I have one try left before alot more testing.
My husband of two yrs is an alcoholic. He is in recovery for the 2nd time since I've known him. I had to send him to jail twice. Now he is upset because I don't go to Al-anon, but I'm shy when it comes to this stuff and embarrassed too.
