Four years ago I discovered I would be unable to concieve a child without the assistance of IVF.
I had never really wanted children before I met my husband, the thought of looking after something that required my attention the whole time it was awake really really did not appeal to me at all.
Then I met the man of my dreams, he wants children, but isn't obsessed with being a dad, in fact he is so wonderful he always reassures me that I am more than enough for him to look after.
Anyway we have undergone 2 lots of IVF unsuccesfully. I have spent hundreds of pounds on reflexology and alternative treatments, and I am confident that eventually I will get pregnant and give my husband the gift of a child. (I have decided that I would love to be mum - women, fickle little things aren't we)?
To the pointthen - When I didn't want children, and people would ask THAT question,
Are you planning on having any kids of your own? or Do you ever see yourself with children?
My nose used to wrinkle up like someone had wafted the most awful of smells under it, and an exclamation of 'Oooooo no way' would pop out of my mouth without a second thought about it. These people were friends, family and alot of the time complete strangers who you meet on holiday or at a night out.
Now I get really agitated when people ask these same questions I have been asked over and over again since being about 16years old. 'It's none of your bloody business' I want to scream, 'What do you care anyway'? I now find this question extremely personal, and avoid answering one way or another. I don't want people to feel sorry for me and give me that look that you get. I'm not ill, I just need medical help to get pregnant. That's hard for me and my husband to deal with, but we have a good and happy life we don't need or want your sympathy, we just want you to mind your own bloody business!!!
