Hi so I’ve recently started my journey for testing for myself and partners infertility, we have been trying for 3 years with no success.
Had my first gp appointment back in December who ordered the usual tests, bloods, swaps, pelvic scan and also semen test for other half, now I haven’t told my mum in much detail about what is going on, she knows I’ve been at the hospital today but doesn’t know why, she rang me earlier asking how today went and told her it was fine but I wouldn’t divulge any more information as I don’t like talking about the problems me and my partner are having around trying to start a family and feel that it is none of her business and find it quite a private matter however a close friend of mine who knows what’s going on has already told my mum of the situation and my mum is playing dumb and waiting for me to tell her exactly what’s going on etc.
She got upset on the phone and said that I only go to her when I need something which isn’t true, she’s upset with me but I feel like she is just being too nosey and trying to get more information from me when she already kind of knows what’s happening.
AIBU to not just tell her exactly and upfront ?
