Husbands/Men!!

Why don't our partners understand us? Why is it that they think we can do stuff normally while we are still in pain!

Totally hear your point of view it's so hard! I can't understand it. Had my 2nd lap yesterday my husband is away working for 3months and we live away from family. My babies are little and I still can't explain to him why I'm tearful he tried being positive trying to lift my mood telling me the Lao means I can get on with it now but I'm not sure I'm convinced as I don't feel the op addressed my issue and I don't believe the Lap was the end of my endo pain didn't show much sympathy when I was upset. I think he just wants me to stop moaning about it!

I moan too but it's only us 2 so who else am I suppose to tell. I'm very grateful for him being there but sometimes I feel he doesn't understand at all.

Oh no. Bless you hope things get easy for you xx
