Maybe putting TTC on hold...
Well, we have been TTC, and I want a baby so bad... But here we are, my H and I seem to fight and cannot communicate properly anymore. Its like when there is something I am not happy with or is bothering me, I will let him know. Hoping to talk about it, right? No, it will turn into a huge ordeal with him getting all defensive about whatever it is. It is fine that we don't agree on something, I will just be telling my feeling about something. He doesn't want to hear it and walks away or raises his voice. I swear, we are either absolutely in love or ready to wring each other necks.. It really sucks. I am thinking that we should not be TTC until he and I can resolve us. I know couples have arguments, but he and I really don't know how to disagree. Its like its his way or no way.. 
Maybe kids just aren't supposed to happen with us? I'm so confused

I'm sorry cloudy! You've had a rough few months, and I'm sure it's weighing on him as much as it's weighing on you, but guys just suck at working through things sometimes. I think it's a good idea to take a break and figure things out for a bit. Hopefully you guys can get back on the same page soon.

I think taking some time off might be good, NOT because you aren't meant to be parents, because you are, but just to get back on track. Have you thought about reading some books on communication styles? Maybe that would help?

TTC Since January 2011 - We have bad spermCinnabun and Junebug say, "Go Wildcats!"
When we first started the 3t journey, there were some major communication challenged. As PP have said, I truly think guys process and handle things differently. I, like you, wanted to blurt every feeling, thought and insecurity to Mr no matter the time, and that didn't work for him.
We have taken a few breaks on our journey, and even though I'm pissed as hell to be where we are, I am so grateful for the experience. Our marriage is so much stronger and I truly hope all you guys need is a break to get back on the same page. Let me know if you ever want to talk.
TTC 19 months ~Started RE in March 2014~
DH was not ready for IUI so we waited
~Started acupuncture in May 2014~
~~BFP 7/6/14~~~EDD 3/14/15~~It's a girl!!~~
I agree with the PP's. Taking a break from TTC is a hard decision but it doesn't have to be a permanent decision. I know it is hard sometimes to keep believing that everything will eventually fall into place but it will...in way or another. <<<Hugs>>>
