TTC - partner

Does anyone else find that the TTC journey is very much one sided. Just feel I’m the one taking the vitamins, doing the ovulation tests and trying to engage him in sex at the right time and he just isn’t putting in the effort. Feeling so defeated.

Yep!!!! only just convinced my partner to take vitamins, we’re 3 cycles in and i’ve had a meltdown saying it’s only me watching what i eat, only me having to lh test only me doing all the hard work and me having to deal with the negative tests!!! i also think it must be hard for them because they aren’t really involved as it’s not their body ect x

I have had huge battles with my husband. Much later, I realised his way of dealing with our struggle was through avoidance. He did not have any one to talk about it and felt so lonely holding so much for both of us. If I could go back in time, I would have tried hard to encourage him to share his feelings, release emotions, and learn to just listen to me. If not eating healthier at least doing lots of exercise to help detoxing from his junk food. Supplements he took it for 3 months, then I had to remind him nearly every day 😫

But He is a super dad now and the rollercoaster jorney made us bond and connect like never before.
