Advice?

Last week was a tough one. Our marriage was really tested and there were moments that I just wanted to throw in the towel. Not really, but I'm sure you know what I mean. Sometimes I think my life would be so much easier if we just gave up on trying to have a baby. It is so stressful and I hate that it has become something that we fight over. There are times when it kind of rules our life. We have to chart my temps, I have to take multiple medications, and we have to time everything based on my cycle. Ugh. The lack of spontaneity is definitely a mood killer. Any advice from others on how to deal?

Here's hoping we have a better week!

    Ugh, I so feel your pain. I tried to minimize the TTC talk for most of my cycle, so that when it was time to get busy, it wasn't like I'd been nagging about it for weeks. For me, that meant talking about it endlessly to my sisters instead.

    Anyway, I should say that this sort of helped, but it was still really hard. I hope it gets better.

    While I don't have any advice I can tell you I'll be sending prayers your way. I'm sure it's almost impossible to not think about all the time and that it takes any and all fun out of the process.

    Major boo friend! I don't know what to tell you since EVERY relationship is different. Charting and temp taking and EVERYTHING else can be so annoying. I took Q out of the equation so that he didn't know if it was fertile time or not...that way the stress was of him. ?

    Oh sister....I got here via Janets' twitter (I've visited here before, but its been a while) DO I EVER FEEL YOU....You don't want to SAY "I'm O'ing, lets...go...do ..that thing - but you are mentally tapping your foot and going "ITS NOW!! COME ON!" I totally thought getting pregnant would be....well, let's just say a LOT easier then this. Lost one last year (early Nov, so a year ago the start of this month) and have had no luck ever since...ugh. Temping/charting definitely takes the fun out of it, so I stopped for a while....ya that didn't work at ALL either.

    I have no advice, only sympathy/solidarity.
