TTC After a Loss

Ya'll hide yours too...(excitement mentioned)

I thought I was the ONLY person who hid pg sticks from my DH.

I love you ladies. You make me feel normal.

  • Yeah I wasn't supposed to be using a OPK's this cycle because we aren't "officially trying" yet,I have used 2 each day. I don't think he will care that much but I stillhaven't told him.
    DD(9)DD(5.5)DS(3)DS(born 2/1/11) July 2006, lost a baby at 8 weeks, natural miscarriage , May 2009 lost Zoe Eliana at 17 weeks no reason known, possible under developed organs. Lost two more babies in September 2009 at 7 wks 4 days. Had myomectomy surgery to remove a large fibroid in November 2009.
  • I was happy when I read this too!  My DH hides the pee sticks when I get them so I can't pee on them without his knowledge...I did that when I got my bfp and he was so mad.

    So I went out and bought my own stash and hid them so he has no idea.  (I am fully aware of how pathetic this is, but thought I would share in the interest of full disclosure).

  • I hide them all the time.  If he knew how often I POAS, he would think I had come unglued.

  • DH doesn't know the difference between OPKs and HPTs so I don't hide them. I had a trashcan full of OPKs and Dh asked "why are there so many pregnancy tests" I then had to explain what they were. He is clueless.

    Baby N conceived after 1 miscarriage and more than 2 years of TTC. Diagnosis was low sperm count. We found success after 3 months of anastrozole to increase DH's testosterone and one IUI.

  • I keep all my girlie stuff in our second bathroom (for some reason there is more storage than in the master) so he has no idea. I have a stack under the sink, and when I use them, I throw away the box in a different trashcan so that he won't see it. As into the ttc process as he is, he would still think I lost my mind.

     This is totally me.  He probably wouldn't even say anything if he knew how many get used, but it seems so much easier to just keep it to myself.  I am happy to hear that I'm not alone.

    Same here.  If DH knew how many times I have actualy POAS within these past few years, I think he would faint! LOL :)

  • I totally do.  And sometimes, I have to POAS at work so that he doesn't know about it Embarrassed
