Cheers guys. No useful pointers from me, just shag away! MIL and FIL are currently staying so I must be a saint (though I'm on (boo!) And going out for wine with colleagues tonight (yay) rather than spending time with them!)
I always feel like something comes up which puts off our ability to be ttc- some recent medication I was on, some treatment (for an injury).. always seems like a decision between ttc and fixing a problem. So far, I've been going with trying to get myself better but really, I just want to be pregnant so that's my goal.
Finally feel ready to get the MIL thing off my chest..... I found out (on the day I had my first proper negative test, suffering unknowingly from serious pmt) that she'd been telling people that she thought we were never going to have children. I cried all afternoon (clearly the only correct adult response in this situation), I'm still really mad at her for talking about us(me) like that, saying something so wildly inaccurate (anyone who knows me knows I LOVE kids), for showing how much she's bothered to get to know me over the last 8 years (not at all) and the general insensitivity of it all. I could be unable to have children, or we could have been ttc secretly for years.
All sounds very petty when you write it down but its so upsetting. That woman needs a fsking hobby!
Tell me a MIL story to make me feel better!
