Me and my husband have been ttc for 5 years we're both young in our later 20s so we knew something had to be wrong and we finally went to a fertility doctor late last year. We have since found out that both of my fallopian tubes are blocked. The doctor recommended doing a laparoscopy (which I will be setting up soon) and <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> after. For me personally it has been devastating none of the women in my (decent sized) family have ever had fertility issues and the few people we have told (my parents, sisters, his parents and our best friends) have been supportive but it's hard because they don't understand. I was just wondering if those of you who have been dealing with infertility told everyone in your lives? We have asked our parents not to tell grandparents cousins aunts etc... we haven't even told my husband's brother and his girlfriend. My husband thinks that it is weird that we are hiding it I'm just more worried about the things people will say even if they are well meaning. This is a difficult time and I feel it will only add emotional stress. I am just wondering how openly did you handle your fertility treatments?
