Hey, can I join the hut? I bring offerings of vodka and green & blacks...

I'm in a grump. I'm 38, had dd (2) after 4 months ttc. Been ttc for No 2 for 15 months.

Darling mother told me today her menopause started v early, as did her mother's - but she can't remember how early is early.

DH won't do sperm test and says it will happen if its meant to be.

Doctor told me blood tests revealed my LH and FSH levels are raised slightly. So am now paranoid about being peri-menopausal.

And if one more person tells me 1) to chill out or it will never happen, or 2) you already have a beautiful daughter, can't you just be grateful for that? I will absolutely lose my mind... grrr

lissie - just popping in to see how you were doing.

Fishie - it is so hard, even when people are sympathetic, it is hard to take.

i explained that the reason there was no no2 was just that one hadn't come. she was v sympathetic and we agreed that no children would be a catastrophe but the one i have is very nice. also lots of my family had children later.

i didn't tell her how long we'd been trying, no point in sharing the gloom.
