Well, after feeling so positive that we're on the right track, my bloody MIL went and asked, completely out of the blue today, "have you talked about adoption?", we said that we had (which we have, but don't want to go down that route at this stage), and she said the typical old line that people who haven't got a clue what they're talking about say, "you know, you'll probably find that when you adopt, you'll get pregnant". Well, I held my tongue, but just said that there's plenty of people who you don't hear about who do not get pg after adopting. There's just no point in telling her what is going on as she doesn't understand, at all! My DH said that we're not at that stage yet where we want to consider adoption, and she said that she's worried about DH's age!
Nevermind, our health, our state of mind, our emotional state, my age (31), DH is only 37 for god's sake! Not ready to be put out for pasture yet. And if his mother wasn't so interfering, he'd be a whole lot less stressed too.
Anyway, I put it down to ignorance and lack of understanding, rather than being unsupportive.
