OK, I'm sure I deserve being berated or scolded for this, but after you're finished doing so, please help with any advice you feel you can give.
I really really really want a child, and my husband doesn't. I have an IUD. I had it removed today. (We moved recently and I saw a new ob/gyn for the first time.) The doctor is under the assumption that I don't want kids, and I felt too much shame to tell the truth--that I was having it removed without telling my husband. I told him I wanted it out because of heavy/painful menstrual periods (which is true, actually, but that's not the main reason). He (the doctor) said that we needed to talk about another form of birth control, but to use another method in the mean time, and come back in two weeks to have routine bloodwork and make a decision about birth control. In the event I do become pregnant, what do I tell my doctor and my husband? My husband will prob. want to attend my prenatal appts. and I'm terrified that my ob/gyn will
