Talked to the in-laws

We were at FIL's house last night and Corey's step-mom asked us if we have to wait so long to try again and we said no and then the conversation just evolved into all our troubles. I guess FIL had a vasectomy reversal when he married Corey's stepmom and it took them two years from then to conceive their first child so they kind of know what we are going through. It was good to talk to them and his step-mom charted (she's the first person that I know IRL that knows anything about charting). They also knew all about SAs and all kinds of different things that DH should try eating. They just kept telling us all sorts of crazy things that we hadn't heard before. It feels good to get that out there.

It was kind of funny, we had been sitting there for a while after we talked about it and FIL said "We need another grandchild, I'm going to go get the home remedy book and see if it talks about sperm." The other funny thing was when his step-mom asked how long we have been trying, before we could answer, DH's brother, who is 19 and who we didn't really think was paying atttention yells, "probably since high school". DH told him practicing and actually trying are two different things. It was just kind of funny because we didn't think he was listening and then he spouts off something like that.

I'm just glad it's out there and they know everything we have been through and why we haven't really been ourselves for the last several months.
