  • Primmer, staying home for Christmas day with DH and the dog sounds lovely. We will wake up at home but then we're visiting both sets of parents, one of which will be joined by many nieces and nephews. I am the opposite - as much as I love them all I find it so hard being around excitable small people at Christmas :(


    SS I wish I could offer some advice on coping, but can only agree that its majorly unfair! Bereft is a good description. One of my best friends is due on boxing day and I'm embarrassed to say I have been avoiding her. One of the things I hate most about this whole situation is how it has robbed me of the opportunity to genuinely just enjoy and be involved with the new arrivals of loved ones without feeling angry/upset/jealous/bitter.

    I feel like a failure too code. A huge failure. No kids, no chance of kids (seriously no chance, haven't dtd for literally months), a farce relationship that's barely clinging on. Won't even be eating Christmas dinner with OH this year.

    Thought once I'd got past the first EDD Christmas it'd be easier but it all sucks. It really, really sucks.

    I think my relationship may be going the way of yours. DH and I barely communicate any more - he just sits back and expects me to do everything.

    Horrible isn't it? Sorry you're not getting on great, hope it improves xx. Sometimes I swear I'm invisible. OH ignores me, which makes me shout and stamp my feet (not literally with the feet lol) in a desperate attempt to get attention. He then feels justified in not spending any time at home, and refuses to see that all I flaming want is the odd word of conversation.
  • Massive hugs and huge tidings to everyone this Christmas xxx

    May we all have a great one, according to MyDays App Auntie Flo is def due on Boxing Day (not too inconvenient!), hopefully the old baggage stays away! I intend to do a PG test tomorrow as I want to do one before I take the Clomid again and it's going to be difficult to get one in a small village in the !!!!-end of Salisbury!
    I'll be thinking of you all and will check in sometimes over the holidays xx
