Me and DF currently living with my parents and have been for the past year as our house renovations finish up.
The latest our house should be done is February 2021 so we will definitely be out ASAP. It’s been lovely and nice to not be so alone in lockdown but now we’ve decided to TTC.
This is fine, they have an attached garage that is converted into a room which has been our bedroom for the past year - we’re not close in the house at all.
The only issue is, we’re on cycle 2 of TTC, I’m in the midst of my fertile time (3rd flashing smiley so static is on its way) and I really don’t want to drink this Christmas. I can go without it to be honest, I’m not a heavy drinker and the most I’d have is a bottle every 2 weeks but I have that up when we began TTC.
However, yesterday my mother kept asking me to have a drink and today we’re having a nice dinner again trying to be festive still, and she’s already asking about me drinking! And saying I should relax and lighten up and have one.
I love her I do and I would be honest but I’d prefer to keep this to myself and if I told her she’d tell my father, my sister, the whole bloody family! And also know she’d be constantly asking about how we’re doing
But I really want her to stop asking me about drinking and why I’m not etc
Also before anyone says “wait till you move out to TTC” we just wanted a head start really as we know it’s about 20-30% chance each month so the likelihood was that we would not get pregnant first try and even if we got pregnant this month on cycle 2, we’d be moving out shortly after
