I was so convinced that this past month was it. I was dead tired, weepy, hungry as a horse, nauseous, you name it. SO convinced. I was even thinking up Mother’s Day announcements for our families. But nope. AF came right on time. And I’m mostly okay about it now. I definitely cried myself to sleep that night... and the next. But I feel more okay now. But I’ve got to admit that I’m scared for Mother’s Day. My parents have been upping the baby questions lately and they don’t know that my husband and I have been trying for months and that I’m on fertility drugs. (We knew they were eager and we thought it would be easier if they didn’t know yet.) And his parents are the opposite. They’d like us to wait 3-5 years (we’ve been married for one year. I’m 24, he’s 25). So they don’t know either. I’m afraid someone is going to say something dumb just trying to make a joke and that I’ll just crumble to pieces right there... we’re thinking it might be time to let the family know our struggles... we’re just afraid of the pressure from both sides if we do. One side constantly asking if it’s worked yet and the other trying to talk us out of it... so we say nothing. But I know my mom and I know she’s going to say something. And she knows me! She’s going to know I’m off. I don’t know that I can hide the sadness... not from her at least. Anyone else in this boat? Do you tell your parents you’re trying? Why/why not? Any tips for getting through Mother’s Day?
