Trouble TTC

Just a meltdown...

Had a serious meltdown last night...totally lost control of these emotions.  Maybe it's from the Ovidrel or Clomid...idk...but I was so uncomfortable all day yesterday that when it came to BD I just couldn't do it and broke down.  Sometimes I feel like my DH just doesn't understand what the big deal is, and he is trying to be supportive I know, but a part of me feels like he just doesn't get it.  Maybe it's me being bitter because I'm the one with the extra hormones, needles, and tests while he just sits back.  IDK but either way we missed an important BD day because of all of this........

I triggered on Monday, BD'd Monday and Tuesday, pretty positive I O'd Tuesday into Wednesday...did I miss our window?  Any hope this month?

Re: Just a meltdown...

  • I'm so sorry, I have those moments more than I care to mention.  It honestly sucks that we have to pump our body with tons of hormones that make us feel like shit and have horrible mood swings and gain weight and they just go on about life as they normally do.

    I think as far as timing you are good.  My RE tells us to have sex 12 and 36hrs after trigger.  Good Luck!
    Fucking bump!!!!

    I get it honey and I'm sorry you had a bad night. On O day this month he refused to have sex, he said he had a horrible day at work and wanted to come home and relax and how dare Ipressure him into it. I tried to be rational but I broke down crying and screaming saying he was being selfish we wasted a month and now I'm going through all these side effects and mood swings and hot flashes and being sick all the time but he doesn't want to do the one thing I need him to do. I could go on and on but needless to say it was a sucky night all together...I think they just need to suck it up and see what we're dealing with I don't know I understand the frustration
  • I think your timing was really good!  
  • rella22rella22 member
    Thanks ladies for your support :)) @ktupiak‌ I totally understand...there have been quite a few months he has pulled that as well! And it's like..I'm not going to force him to bd...and then somehow manages to turn in my head to him not wanting a baby as much as me blah blah. I have to remind myself that he's a man...no he doesn't get it...and I just have to pull him along sometimes....just like most of the things we do/or accomplish!
