Today’s post is dedicated to all the husbands that have been such troopers being by our sides through IVF, IUI, Infertility. We tend to forget that they are just as effected as we are but in different ways. My husband and I have found that laughter is the best medicine when things get stressful with infertility. You have to keep your humor, the fun in your relationship and find ways to make fun happen.
In one of my recent posts I had featured the Pro and Con worksheet from a company called Knock Knock. I tend to seek out this type of company, it makes me feel carefree, fun, quirky, etc. I am more of a serious girl and have found that in order to stay alive through infertility you need to keep your sense of humor and laugh A LOT.
I thought The Pregnancy Book for Men was adorable and fun. It will keep you man updated week by week, not only on the baby’s development, but also on changes you possibly will be going through. The best question that the book has is “How do I deal with my partner’s hormonal swings? HAAAAAAAAAAA I think he is probably an expert by now, I know my husband is. What I really loved about this book is that it provides a humorous approach to the utterly terrifying prospect of fatherhood-and a checklist for packing the ultimate hospital bag. Your husband will love that this is not a frilly book, I mean, it says From Dude To Dad In 40 Short Weeks. Enter the GIVEAWAY below for a chance to give your sexy husband a fun and entertaining book that makes reading about pregnancy fun.

My husband is trying to be understanding and patient with all of my hormonal changes, but I’m not sure he really gets it. I think he just thinks I’m crazy and that I have a new excuse to blame my craziness on.

LOL that’s funny I think our husbands are in the same boat. I like that my normal craziness is now always blamed on IVF.

Just wanted to give you a virtual hug. Your positivity has really helped me through my last cycle, even though it didn’t work.

Thank you so much for the nail polish! I love it! I am about to start stimming for cycle 2 tomorrow and I just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate your openness and positivity. I have been following you since we began our journey and I look to you as our lighthouse in the storm. My husband is dealing with everything surprisingly well. We have to go through IVF because he has azoospermia so a lot of times he feels like it’s his fault. He has definitely been handling my emotions well. Especially the time I wailed like a 3 year old for an hour because I was convinced he was mad at me because I wasn’t wearing pants. That happened. Anyways! Good luck and baby dust to both of us!!
