Am I being sensitive?
My partner and I have been trying for 2 1/2 years to conceive our third. For over a year, my partner has been taking hCG shots because he was on TRT. At the start of this year, we got an analysis and turns out everything looked good on his end. Never thought it would be a me issue, but I started to work with a fertility specialist and everything checked out until our HSN they found polyps and I need surgery. It’s going to cost $1700 which he will pay. However, the surgery is an hour away and although he works from home, he says he has to work and said I should Uber or have a family member take me. All my support lives an hour in the opposite direction. So it would be an hour to me, hour to the surgery and then back to me and back home. Would you be upset? I just wanna know if I’m too sensitive. He is paying the surgery should last no longer than 45 minutes, but I am being put out and nervous. Just looking for feedback.

I’d want my partner there with me and that would be the end of it.
This is part of your journey together! I’d be upset too
It's a lot to ask for especially if you have two other kids already sometimes logistically things don't work out and that's the reality of it
If I understand well he will be working and managing your 2 kids at home. If he is with you you would need someone at home for the kids I guess. Personally I would prefer having my husband with my kids and friends or family going with me for the surgery.
I mean I got not wanting to take off work so he can support his family and pay for the surgery but I also get why you would want him there and to not go by yourself. Can a close family member help even if they live an hour away? They should probably stay at the surgery center if it only takes 45 min
