WWYD:Re outpatient prodecure and OOT guests

The in-laws are scheduled to come in to town on Friday, Feb 17th. They come in pretty late in the day, 7pm. And will head home Monday morning.

My second hysteroscopy has been scheduled for Feb 17th, it was dependent on how I healed from my first hysteroscopy, my cycle and all that jazz. 

Our in-laws are not aware of our TTC issues and we both think this is a great time to fill them in. However, DH and I disagree on how it should be done.

I think- we should let them know of the situation now, so they know what to expect Friday night and know that I won't be super mobile on Saturday, AND this also gives the opportunity to reschedule.

DH thinks--- we should not tell them until they come in and it won't be much of a problem because they are home bodies and have requested for us not to plan any activities.

Thoughts? WWYD? TIA.

  • What's the reason for him wanting to wait?  That makes no sense to me if it is no big deal letting them in on this part of your life.  I would rather have them be prepared versus a SURPRISE!!!  Party!!!
  • I don't know how you felt after your first Hysteroscopy, but I was fine after mine, just mild cramps.  I did rest that day though.  I think if you don't want to tell them, you shouldn't have to.  Just excuse yourself to bed early friday.  Hopefully you'll feel fine the next day.

    That being said, both of our families know of our issues and it has been a huge support for me.

  • If I were the guests, I think I would want to know before I came in town.  You wouldn't want them to feel awkward or like they were an imposition being there that weekend (which it doesn't sound at all like you think, but they might feel that way).  Just my thoughts.

    This. I can see both sides of wanting to wait/tell them now but I think it is more considerate to tell your guests before. 

  • Thanks ladies!

    I am glad you all agree with me. I definitely don't want them to feel weird when they walk into my home and i'm laying on the couch, frizzy hair, no make up, and a heating pad on my lap.  I'll have to talk to DH a little more in depth about it tonight and discuss the best way to tell them. Email, phone, skype... ay, ay, ay.

    Gracias, senoritas!
