I was just wondering if any one would like to share how or if TTC has put any stress on your relationship with your partner. How do you deal with it? Etc. I feel like it has put a lot of stress on us emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. It seems that we fight over every little thing and don't really have the relationship we used to have.

I agree with that. Dh and I would argue about everything. From me not cooking, watching a particular show on tv and so on. We would really argue when a friend or family member would end up pg. We would also argue when new little babies in our familes were born. He would always want to go buy a gift and go straigth up to the hospital. I on the other hand needed somet time. However, after my miscarriage a couple of weeks ago we have somehow reconnected on a different leverl. We also just got back from the Bahamas yesterday. The miscarriage hit him really hard and I think he can understand how I feel a little better. There have been many times I was worried about out relationship during this whole ttcing time.

I have to say that while we were TTC, it wasn't so bad. We did fight a little more, but when you are taking all those hormones and drugs, it's bound to happen. One thing I didn't expect though was after the baby came. From being on all of those hormones/drugs for 3 years, I have to say I could care less about sex. I feel horrible that I actually feel that way but unfortunately it's true. My poor DH. He is putting up with me, but I hope that one day I can get everything back in order. It's all worth it though
