Happy National Infertility Awareness Week!

I’m not sure if this is a US thing or worldwide, but I just want to hug all my fellow infertile individuals and couples out there! We are strong, we are determined, we are warriors, and we won’t give up.

Love and baby dust!! ✨✨

Erectile disfunction, mental 42yrs+

My husband who is soon to be 45 is showing signs of not getting erect as quickly, not keeping erect as long as he used to. He has been stressed with work, lacking sleep ,had some depression, suspected diabetes because of some related symptoms etc so I know these factors wouldn't help. Wondering how common this is with other men 42 years plus? I'm yet to have a heart to heart with him about it. I started to suspect he might be cheating but I don't think he is.

Shouldn't call your ex a sperm donor

Sperms donors are donors, your ex who pumped and dumped isnt. It's just insulting to actual donors

IV

Did anyone refuse an IV during labor? If so, did your doc or the hospital try to force it? I’m due May 11 and my doctor is now refusing to deliver my baby because I don’t want an IV. I also don’t want fetal monitoring and he stated I need to do it bc I owe it to my kid. He was fine with it my last appointment and then today he has a huge problem. I also don’t plan on going to the hospital until I am like ready to push. I want to labor at home for as long as possible. I know the reason for the IV. But I’m low risk have had no problems, so there is not a real reason to think something might happen and I might need an IV.
