Miss K - I hope you are right about the pregnyl. It's just that the packaging says 2-8 degrees so I couldn't understand why a chemist of all places, wouldn't have it stored properly. I'm such a stress head.
And about your mother, my mum is EXACTLY the same as yours. She is just as supportive as your mum. I've decided it's because a) she doesn't understand the severity of the situation (she's old school) b) she's like most people and that that it will happen naturally, with or without IVF so why bother worrying about it c) because she had 9 children (YES, 9!) she thinks I don't need help. Miss K, your mum is like most people I think, but it's just a shame that both our mum's can't get past those stigmas and just BE THERE. I deal with it by not talking about my situation with people who aren't very supportive. If they want to know, tell them, but keep it simple so that you minimise the hurt when they don't sound that interested in the answer.
BOC - You are sounding more positive already lovey! Hang in there. Don't mind DH. He may very well be trying to distance his emotions from the situation so that he doesn't get hurt. As most of us women know men deal with situations VERY differently. Don't force him to open up as this could get the opposite reaction. But it is important that you let him know how you feel as this could help him connect with his feelings about the situation and help him understand why you have reacted the way you have.
MellMell - Good luck on Fri. You must be getting very excited! I hope they scoop up lots and lots of follies. I'll be thinking of you
