Trying to conceive

So how should I handle this situation..

My man and I have been trying to have a baby for over a year. I’m currently late on my period but by only two days so I took a test. When I told him it was negative he said maybe we should just break up so you can find someone to give you the kid you want since I can’t. I told him he could go get his sperm analyzed and we can start putting more effort into it like tracking my ovulation more closely he got upset and said he doesn’t want to do that. I feel it’s because he doesn’t want to hear it’s his fault but I’m not placing the blame on him I told him there many things we could do but he doesn’t want to hear anything I have to say. Plus it’s still early why did he just shut down and leave idk how to have this conversation with him

Getting a sperm analysis & cycle tracking are both very simple & non- invasive options.

If he saying that you should just break up & he's not willing to explore all the options I'd personally see that as someone who isn't interested in growth (as an individual and within the relationship) & is definitely not ready to be a parent. I'd personally be strongly reconsidering the relationship.

It’s not easy for anyone to have to consider they may have a problem with their fertility. For me, I feel like I’m a failure because my fertility is poor. My husband was very nervous about his semen analysis and the results, and very relieved that it came back normal.

He probably just lashed out a little because he’s maybe worried there is something not quite right with him. Try sitting down with him and saying you think you should both go to the Dr (if that’s what you think you should do) and start having tests done. If he doesn’t respond well, chat about what it is that’s worrying him, but not in an attacking way. In a sympathetic way.

While we were struggling to conceive I would apologise to my husband that he wasn’t with someone who could get pregnant easily. It’s a hard thing to deal with. Xx

I want to give up so bad

This shits too hard

Please answer this❤️

Why do you post up looking for friends, but leave people on Read in your inbox?

I think in your bio, you should specify the type of friends that you're looking for. Maybe race is a factor. Maybe appearance is a factor. I don't get it.

Well, maybe you're just looking for social media friends maybe you're just looking for people to follow you and like your pictures. I really don't get it. Please help me out.

Friendships

I’ve had a lot of things change since becoming a mom but I never thought loosing my friends would be one of them. I’m literally sitting here watching my so call friends out and about and they never invite me, sometimes it’s the thought that counts, you just want to be considered. Has this happened to anyone and how did you navigate it?

Wtffff I dont understand men

Soooo my bf has been pretty adamant that he doesnt like sex while I'm pregnant. Currently about 7.5 months right now & I'm lucky if I get it once a month. He was always giving excuses "I'm just not in the right mind set right now", "I'm stressed, I'm tired", "I don't like putting it in you when baby is so close", "what if your water breaks while I'm going down on you?", it was endless. He would joke about me getting a rose. Wellllll he didnt know I already had something similar, I'm just not really into using it and only was using it before I dated him. He found it a few days ago and guess what?? It seemed like he got upset! While he tried to laugh it off he end up leaving the room. Then makes little remarks about it throughout the rest of the day. "You'd rather do that then do anything with me?" "I havent been doing anything for me" "well it must be better than me since you're not coming to me asking for it". 😑 & lately hes been asking nearly every day to be intimate since the day he found it. Now im just bitter and frustrated he kept turning me down or making excuses of why he didnt initiate these last 4-5 months and dont even want to do anything with him. I don't understand this bs, he's so damn frusterating.

Looking for Our Village !

Hello everyone, my daughter (3) has been asking to go see her friends lately, and it made me realize… she doesn’t really have any yet. Her brother (2) and her are the only kids on both side of the families.

So I think it’s time we get out there and find our village.

If you have little ones around their ages and are also looking for some friends, playdates, park days, nights out. we’d love to connect!

Bonus if you have a partner too because my husband and I could use some friends as well!!
