I almost cried when I read it, because I had a similar talk with my husband. When I first went to the doctor, I felt like less than a person, felt "broken," and wondered why he would want to be married to me anymore. It's so hard to have those thoughts, and I'm touched to read your husband's response.robinhttp://polycysticinside.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30185283.post-80976965795710883192011-07-21T15:42:20.212-07:002011-07-21T15:42:20.212-07:00i went through a HUGE phase after my hysterectomy ...i went through a HUGE phase after my hysterectomy of thinking my partner Ross would leave me. Even before I had the hysterectomy, it started. We were both only 28, and since I was barren, I felt he had no reason to stay if he decided he wanted kids as he could easily meet someone else to have them with. And i felt like if that happened, I would be alone forever. I didn't want him to feel "stuck" with me and my lack of uterus. When I told him this fear, he thought I was nuts..<br /><br />It is such a scary feeling, that you are holding someone back from their dreams. But, it sounds like you have an incredible husband who loves you dearly. It is really wonderful you have each other. Thank you for sharing this beautiful moment between the two of you. It is so touching, real, and honest. It shows the depths of your love. Your relationship is obviously so much more than just having babies, which as I have learned from my mother, is just a small part of a long term relationship. <br /><br />I am sorry you had this sad moment, but I am so glad you had someone wonderful there to love and comfort you.Nicolehttp://nicoleciomek.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30185283.post-29883306446965893002011-07-21T10:15:43.609-07:002011-07-21T10:15:43.609-07:00This post is quite touching, the pure love that y...This post is quite touching, the pure love that you each have for the other is beautiful. <br /><br />ICLW # 90 - Bobbieparadykeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09925382784693420640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30185283.post-53846317156562336392011-07-21T08:18:12.764-07:002011-07-21T08:18:12.764-07:00This resonates with me.

I have feared at the start of our infertility journey (and still do occasionally) that my husband would leave me because I haven't yet given him a child. In the end, I think we are becoming much closer.<br /><br />You and your husband are lucky to have each other. I hope that you become parents and make those wishes come true.Mommy ToBehttp://amiracleintheworks.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30185283.post-71173993037562404982011-07-20T22:01:23.302-07:002011-07-20T22:01:23.302-07:00Mali, thank you for your kind and gentle words.Mali, thank you for your kind and gentle words.The Barrenesshttp://www.the-barreness.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30185283.post-53783432688192732122011-07-20T20:03:56.832-07:002011-07-20T20:03:56.832-07:00I have to say that this is often our biggest fear ...I have to say that this is often our biggest fear - how our husbands and parterns will react once they realise we can't give them children. <br /><br />But you know, in the last ten years, I've seen far more relationships strengthened than not, or couples get married after years in a relationship as partners, after learning they wouldn't have children. Our husbands and partners are with us because they want US. Not what our wombs might have been able to give them. And I'm glad you're learning that too.Malihttp://nokiddinginnz.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
