    We've been TTC for over 6 years now and what we do is just keep the communication open, no matter how uncomfortable or silly or whatever we are feeling is. Talking is so important.

    And even at this point, everything that we have been through over the past few years has made us stronger and I put that down to our communication.

    Talk talk talk!!!!!

Nic I read your email to dh last night and finally...i think he may be starting to understand why I'm the way I am!!! I also watched the video you mentioned yesterday and i started crying as soon as the bloody music started!!!! What a wonderful movie. I'm actually going to send it through to some friends of mine.

    well men , what can i say. maybe he needs to read men are from mars book. men are not the best at coping with these issues but if he can understand how you are feeling i am sure it may be easier. most fertility clinics offer councelling and although i havn't used them yet maybe as the others said it may help. hope you get some answers soon. good luck

    That is excellent Baby2Bee! Hopefully this will be the start of bigger and better things to come (and a BIG Woohoo to your DH too)

    Hi Baby2bee..
    I could've posted this thread myself.. I'm on my 3rd cycle with Clomid and it has gotten worse with the mood swings... I started on DH first thing yesterday morning and continued on after he got home... He's thinks i'm being hard on him but when the hormones are kicking is when I normally spit out what's bothering me.. And spit out I do.. quite venomous.. It's like I can't bite my tongue... I hope that your DH understands more now.. I'm on an uphill battle with mine.. He just says don't worry about it... Good luck hun.. i hope the TWW flies by for you and that you'll have your BFP at the end of it...

    cheers!! I tried not to laugh at your post but I couldn't help it!! It's soooo nice to know i'm not alone!! It's going to be a VERY slow process with DH as he's trying to understand.....but i can only imagine how hard it is for him!! The worse feeling i keep getting is that DH must absolutely #*#@& himself everytime he walks through the front door, wondering what mood i'm in! LOL!!

    OH MY!! That is soo funny...My DH was the same.. He would actually stand at the front door with it open, and lean inside and call out that he was home to see if I ventured out or if I gave him a friendly hello back.... I caught him doing it one night, he was scouring the area for me, looking like he was ready to dodge a flying bullet at a nanoseconds notice PMSL! He will openly admit it too.
