Relaxing Doesn't Make Babies

Frustrations

September 24, 2006 — 5:11 pm

A few people, who have heard the long story about the shit that’s going on, have suggested that we put off having a baby until we figure the problems out, since the problems ARE affecting the marriage to a degree (arguing about how to handle things, etc). But deep inside I rebel against that idea. We ARE working on the issues, working through things, working on improving our communication so we can actually solve the problems rather than fight about it – but I don’t want to put our life on hold for it. (And while these people have read about some of the problems we’re having, they obviously do not know the full story, they don’t know more than what I write in one thread. So I don’t feel right making decisions based on their opinions alone.)

However I am not sure I would want to go ahead with infertility treatments right now either. Diagnostics, absolutely – I want to KNOW what’s wrong. But I would have to think long and hard before committing to expensive, emotional treatments.

Right now it’s not the time for making decisions, anyways. SA tomorrow morning. We need the facts before making decisions.

PS – DH is going nuts. He comes home from being away for 2 weeks, and we can’t have sex for two days. Not only that, but he can’t even, ummm, well do anything. He needs to save those little men. The poor guy. He’ll be so happy tomorrow.
