Loula, you are not alone. My mum obviously thought about that as well but in a more regreted way like' ah if I can I would have a child for you'...

I have to say I love love love my mum but quoting Persephone's first paragraph of the post, it was my mum that finds it the hardest during this TTC journey, more so than me. I sometimes have to forget about myself and turn to comfort her that this is not a bit deal and we will get through it...

My mum bought a return ticket offered to come and look after me for 3 months (they live overseas) including all the cookings and all the ancient recipes she can find to get me pregnant. One of the strange thing is a bottle of very strong alcoholic drink and she forces me 1 shot down every night and said her friend's daughter got pregnant that way. Well, not pregnant yet but I may become an alcoholic!

My mum has already recruited her two sisters to come to look after the new baby I am going to have very soon. They are suppose to drop their grand kids and come all the way to here because obviously I am very important in the family

My mum stops having any kind of holidays because she is on call (everyday) so she can be here the minute I get pregnant

My mum has super memory, she remembers my menstral cycle clearer than I do. She will timely remind me fertile days and leading up to AF she forbid me to wear skirts
