how knowledgeable is your SO?
What was your TTC knowledge before? What about your SO?
Despite trying to explain to H that chances are we wont get pregnant right off he is convinced that I am crazy. He thinks stopping birth control = having a baby in nine months. This is even with a relative who is on month 6 of actively trying unsuccessfully. He is pretty up to speed on everything involved once someone is actually pregnant though.
I thought pregnancy happened right away until I found this site and learned that I had been lied to in health class.

BFP - 10/29/2016!!!, EDD - 7/8/2017
DE IVF ER - 12/2/2016 (17R/10F = 8 frosties); FET 1.0 (1/27/2017) - BFP 6dp5dt (EDD 10/16/2017)
We both knew it might take couple months, but neither one of us thought it would take couple years.
When it came to IF, I had to explain things to DH. Even thought I knew few things going into the process, its a learning experience for the both of us as we are going thru it.
Couple weeks ago DH brought up adoption. When I explained the process to him, he admitted he didn't think it would be 'that complicated.'
Cinnabun and Junebug say, "Go Wildcats!"
As for babies he has almost 0 experience with kids under 2. He has been coming with me to my babysitting gig to experience a younger baby. He is overwhelmed after a few hours but he is figuring it out.

Like, if it happens, great -- if it doesn't happen after 6 months or a year, we'll cross that bridge when we get there (he says this all the time).
Pregnancy and delivery room, DH will be a champ. I can see it now. DH is a firefighter/EMT (former NYPD), so he's super calm under pressure. He's seen some crazy thing, so there shouldn't be any passing out in the delivery room. Haha.

Maybe that isn't true, his sister with PR with twins that she got through IVF (and miscarried the night we met actually) so I guess he knew infertility was a thing.
Now he knows more than he ever wanted to know I am sure.
