I have only been in this IVF world for about three weeks I think and I have told four friends what we are planning on giving this a shot. My DH wants to keep this under wraps until we know the outcome but I was so excited, I shared. Now I kind of regret that decision.
Out of the four people I told, three were kind of negative saying things like, "don't you remember what a two year old is like", "are you sure you want to gain all that weight again", "Don't you remember those sleepless nights" etc. Nothing but comments...where I thought they would be really excited and happy for me. I had one person who was over the top excited which was nice.
Why the negativity? Is it that people just don't know how to react? Do they think it's weird? Now I'm wondering if I do get a BFP, how will they react then? Or if it is BFN will they be supportive or will they say, "see, it was a bad idea". I'm just not feeling the love man!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Don't focus on what other people think! You're too busy making a baby! :)
