How can I explain it to my husband!

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.

Baby2bee... oh hun, don't we all know that story. I am lucky though, my DH came around really quickly (after about 15mths) when I told him to just shut up and hug me after clomid day 2 hysteria struck the second time. Since then he's realised that I don't expect him to fix anything, just be there and tell me he knows its hard and maybe if he has a moment, tell me its hard for him too. I had to tell him outright that the worst part was feeling alone with the pain of not having a child because he seemed fine with it.

We had the IVF initial meeting and I was the opposite of typical I am sure lol. The nurse kept checking I was alright and I kept checking with DH to make sure he could cope with the drug induced moods lol.
He knows whats me and what isn't, and does his best. And I try to make it up to him by being extra gentle and kind when not overly hormonal.

You just gotta keep talking and touching each other, as every one else has advised.
to you both, its a steep learning process for us all.
