[quote=Anonymous]I think you will find a million women on this site who would agree with you, OP. When I started my first IVF process, I was LIVID because my husband wanted me to postpone our first IVF by a month because of a conference he would have to go to ON OUR DUE DATE (IF the timing had worked out). And he literally had NO idea why I was so upset/mad/frustrated/speechless. It was the most bizarre thing that had ever happened in our marriage to date.

We're more than a year down the road from there, and I have to give him a ton of credit - he's been as supportive as he possibly could have been. Do I feel like I have done 97% of the work - absolutely. Do I feel like I handle an uneven amount of the burden - absolutely. However, I think that's just part of being the woman in the IVF process.

I also think that once your husband sees you giving yourself shots every day, and how you have to limit your diet/schedule/workout routine/ENTIRE LIFE for this process, he may have a bit of a change of heart. I know my husband did - he never said it outright, but he became much more understanding when he saw what this entails from our side of the stirrups.[/quote]
