TTC and DH feelings...........
Okay, Af showed up this morning, and DH is more upset then I ever thought he would be. I am like okay next month- My body has been thru a lot, I have lost 45 pounds since january, and my MIL died and she was like a Mom to me since my own Mom passed 12 years ago. So there has been a lot of stress on my body, and to top it all off, I thinkI might have had a MC in December, late Af by 2 weeks, neg preg tests, but very heavy flow, and I get AF every 24-28 days like clock work . Is anyone elses DH more upset then they are when AF arrives? Am I the only one? I need some baby dust here. Thanks for listening.

Re: TTC and DH feelings...........
Sometimes I can't figure him out. Last month, he was like, oh, well, and other months I think his silence was just how he dealt with things.
I wish I felt that he cared more that I do, but like I said, I think his silence is his way of dealing with things.
That said...want to send you .
My temps went down today, so I think I'll be joining you in the next few days...again...

I dont wish my DH to be sad about anything really, but I recently (and prematurely) took a HPT because I thought my period was taking too long to come. He knew (or at least he says he knew) that I wasn't pregnant but did not begrudge my need to satisfy my curiosity. I guess I knew too. But I think a little part of me wanted a drop more comfort from him.
Then I remembered that the two of us are polar opposites when it comes to expressing our emotions. ALL of my cards are on the table whereas he is rather reserved. That is just who he is. Sometimes I wonder if he is ready and then I know that if he wasn't, I would still be on birth control.
On another post within the past few weeks, someone asked if we thought about how we are going to tell our DH's when we get the BFP from the HPT or the doc. I know I wont make a cute surprise out of it because if I dont get the "WOW" reaction we all want, I'll be upset. And its not as if he doesnt want or isnt ready for kids. He is. He is just different than I am.

DH wants a baby as much as I do so he becomes just as devastated when AF arrives. We go through the pain and heartache month after month together when we don't conceive. It's truly a blessing that I have such a wonderful, supportive husband.

Well said! I'm in the same boat - DH is not as demonstrative as I might like - esp when it comes to this kind of stuff. But I do know it's important to him but he shows it in a different way.

Re: TTC and DH feelings...........
I wish my DH showed any kind of emotion when I get AF.
I think he tries to be sympathetic. but the "oh well" isn't exactly an emtion
