AFM, temp down a little this morning, but I expected it. I did an over lay with my chart with DD and, so far (anyway), it seems to be mimicking the same pattern (which really makes me think something just wasn't right and was off last month going by my post O temps and pattern).
And now for my vent...
So last night my jackass husband decided to pull the same crap that he's been pulling for years now. The kind where he'd say let ttc or would have a time frame in which we'd start, and then when it'd be brought up later, he'd say that it's not what he meant, that he doesn't remember saying that, or was just saying it to make me happy.
I really thought we were past that.
He told me more than once during the first half of the year that he didn't want any more. Which is why I got that stupid IUD in the first place. Then 3-ish weeks after the last time he said that at the beginning of July, he comes to me saying he wants to. I didn't believe him, knowing that this is his usual.
Didn't believe him. Wouldn't believe him. He persisted saying he really does want to ttc over the next month which lead me to getting my IUD out (which I was wanting out anyway as I didn't like it, but I had plans to go on nuva ring after).
Even after getting it out, I was reluctant to believe he wanted to and still planned on nuva ring after AF started. When AF started, he begged (BEGGED) me not to start the nuva ring, so I eventually caved.
After AF started last cycle, he agreed that we could just keep on trying. I flat out asked him he just meant one more cycle or if we'd just keep trying. He clarified that we'd just keep trying, not limiting it to one more.
So last night it came up about if we're not successful this month. And that's when he came out and said that he never said we could just keep on trying, that it was this cycle only. Which is a load of crap because I clarified with him what he meant back when we had this discussion a month ago so we wouldn't end up where we are right now. He said he doesn't remember saying that. I clarified for a reason. I wanted us on the same page so I didn't think we were going to keep trying and he only meant one cycle... which is what happened anyway.
He keeps going on and on about how we're trying because it's so important to me. That's not good enough. While I'd be thrilled to have more, and yeah, it IS important to me, but I'm not going to significantly change our kids lives and his life for something that's for me. I don't want to do this, as much as it'll kill me, if he's not all in. If he doesn't really want 1 or 2 more, then I'm not forcing that life altering decision on him.
It's not like I'm threatening to leave or anything. I just need time to adjust and accept that we're done having kids. If he'd just left things alone, I'd be a lot further on in my accepting that fact. I wasn't making it a big deal or anything. I was just doing what I had to do for me to find peace with the decision. And now I'm going to be back at square one with that.
So either way, this is likely my last cycle. If we were successful, then I'm just scared about how this is all going to go (I feel stupid for thinking he really wanted this). I honestly am feeling the dread of telling him if we are at this point. And if I'm not then I'll have some extra hpts and opks (I'll send them for free if anyone wants them!).
I'm just so angry with him. I wish he'd just been honest from the beginning. I wish he had just left things alone this summer. He did back track and say that we can continue trying, but I'm not doing it under the conditions of him doing it just because it's important to me. Not doing it. I don't want him resenting me for any other children we may have, and I don't want him resenting them because he didn't really want them in the first place.
Sorry for my tl;dr vent. I'm just absolutely miserable right now because I can't even enjoy it we were "successful", and I know how much of a pain it's going to be to have to start back at the beginning of finding peace with it all.
