My “good” mood is afterglow from the weekend, IF-wise, not so much with the good mood but…This weekend I needed, husband’s party on Friday night was incredible! Completely surreal! The most lavish party I’ve ever been to, we had such a good time! Then the game on Sunday, that was so much fun, not just because my beloved Pats won, in fine fashion too, but it was just great to get out and tailgate a little and honestly no baby or pregnancy talk. And much to my surprise I didn’t freeze my tail off! Yesterday I had my HSG test, good and not so good news there, not that I need them but both tubes were open, although one is so very thin, but the reason we were doing this test to see if fluid was inside or outside, there’s fluid inside! So I have my probable reason for cycle #1 Not taking but I’m also looking and yet another road block, which will most likely be a pretty good one, putting me off starting the next cycle by months and bring me into another Laparoscopy. I’m trying to be logical and positive, we know what the problem is (again) and there is a solution, it’s just that it takes some much time! Most likely a month before I can see my RE to follow up on the test (although I’m on the waiting list for any cancellations) and decide on a plan, then I’m sure another month before the Lap, then recovery time of what most likely two months, then probably another month before we start the cycle and a month-ish for the cycle, so that’s like FIVE months! Husband doesn’t get this part, “what’s the big deal, you’re young, woman have babies in the fifties!”, I understand that he’s trying to be helpful and supportive and for the most part he’s great at it, but yeah they just simple don’t get a part of all this.

I totally agree with you, my DH doesn\'t understand everything that I go through with my IVF treatments. I wish there was a handbook for DH\'s.
I hope your roadblocks aren\'t bad and you get through them quickly. Try to stay positive and enjoy your Holiday Season. :)
