Lurker with a SIL TTTC question (ticker warning)
Hi everyone - I posted on this board several years ago when learning to chart and TTC. I got so much good advice, and I'm hoping I can ask another question now.
My SIL (DH's sister) has been TTC for about 16 months now. She was diagnosed with PCOS in the fall, and started taking Clomid in March. She was pretty open with talking about the PCOS diagnosis prior to starting Clomid (she's pretty blunt and direct in general), but since then she's been quiet about TTC. I very much understand how personal the journey is, and that she doesn't owe me or anyone else updates at all, but I'd like to be there for her during this time. We didn't have the best relationship before DH and I got married, but it's gotten better over the past few years. It just feels weird to me not to talk or ask her about something so big going on in her life, and not offering support. Should I just stay quiet about the subject also, and allow her to talk about it if she wants to? Is it inappropriate for me to ask her how's she's feeling, or just let her know I'm there is she ever wants to talk? I don't know. I want to be supportive without being intrusive or inappropriate. Advice?

A Parachute in an Oak Tree: A World of Love

- Gayle Forman
"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."
