Don't you hate it when your DH tells family about what...
is going on! UGH! I was really upset with my DH tonight.
He told his mom allllll about how we are trying to have a baby!
My DH, and I'm sure many others, does NOT 100% understand what's going with MY/OUR bodies. He told my MIL that 'I had a fertility Dr. now!!'. I went for a freaking pap (and Factor V blood work) I haven't gotten done for over 7 years!
I won't go into specifics but I think it's so rude when your DH talks to their family about YOUR body w/out even talking to you first!
I sent them BOTH an e-mail saying it was not cool to talk about what's going with my body w/out even discussing with it me first. I sure the *** is gonna hit the fan tonight but boy do I sure feel better about it. and i've finally stopped crying.
My DH really hurt my feelings because he doesn't even ask what's going on but feels free to talk freely to other family members.
Re: Don't you hate it when your DH tells family about what...
I felt like sharing my feelings and letting them know it was not OK to talk about it w/out discussing with me first was mature. I guess I was just supposed to hold it all in and not talk about it? Are you a man?! LOL!
I dont even want people to know we are TTC let alone specifics. I agree... DH almost slipped up and said something to his parents. I dont want pressure from other people. Are you KU yet...? grr I hate that question!
I generally don't email my husband or mother in law when I feel like I need to talk to them about something I think is important. But maybe I'm crazy or something
Right because you totally get and understand 100% of our family dynamic's and how best to communicate w/ each other. Roger that!
do you normally communicate with your husband via the internet?
Communication with your husband, if not the mother in law is really key. No one was judging you, it just seemed odd.
Not to mention you can't read tone of voice, see facial expressions and such and things can really be taken the wrong way via email.
Many times men do things like this not to trample all over you, but because they are excited. Give him the benefit of the doubt. He's probably just excited about becoming a daddy!
My DH doesn't say anything...I have to ask him to share more with his family sometimes, he is so private.
I totally get what you're saying though, if my DH shared MISinformation, it would irritate me even more than when he says nothing at all.

"Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength."
OR you could just talk to your husband (not via email) and then have HIM talk to HIS mother. It's crazy, I know, but it might just work...
And who doesn't have the "do we tell other people?" discussion when they decide to actually TTC? How does that not come up?
