[quote=Anonymous]I was so hung up on my children being conceived in a petri dish, and this made it hard for me to move to IVF.  Then, when you're in the cycle, there are so many hurdles to overcome that you are always focused on the one right in front of you, which is easier in some ways.  There are a lot of ups and downs.  You will become closer as a couple as you learn to handle the stress and the grieving together.  My best advice is to have your partner be in charge of the shots so that he has a role to play during treatment.  I also had my DH interface with our nurse for our DC1 because it was too stressful for me.  Remember that your husband is going through everything you're going through, but there is more focus on you as the person undergoing treatment.  He may also feel responsible for the situation you're in (my DH felt inadequate even though our infertility was caused by my medical issue).  Agree with advice to go straight to IVF.  You will have concrete evidence with IVF of what things are working and what is not working. [/quote]
