Hi farmgirl....

Yep, we understand what you mean, and its definately not petty. It's a bit different for us I suppose, but just as important that my partner feels like she is a part of the process too. I like your suggestions (though I don't know much about the production room!), I particularly like #7 too! LOL!

Something I think thats really important for the clinic to acknowledge is that while you and I are popping pills or injecting (lol, makes us sound like hard core druggies!), our partners are the ones who have to support us and hold us up when we have an emotional breakdown, and a lot more support should be given to them by the clinic too. Shel struggled a bit with not having anyone to talk to about what she was feeling, what to do to support me... just lucky a few woman at work had gone through the same thing and were able to give her support, as i really wasn't able to give her as much as she needed at the time.
