The nightly shots are the worst

Some men tend to leak for a while afterwards. Just leave it in for 30-45 mins after. I know its weird but evolution don't play games.

Meh. Nobody is truly "ready" to be a parent. And until the second trimester it is a crapshoot. Stay positive and plan for the future.
You should also have a discussion with your significant other about what to do in the event of complications during delivery.
Not a pleasant topic, but my wife told me, every time, "kid first, me next"

Please don’t take this negatively but was adopting on the table as an option during this decision making process?
It was an option but it was so much more expensive, $30k to adopt or $10k for IVF
Wow I had thought those costs were the other way around. That makes a lot more sense knowing adoption costs an annual salary for most
Yeah it's insane. If they were the other way around I would have. There's some loopholes of course (like fostering before adopting) but they
Aren't guaranteed and can lead to a lot of trauma for all parties
That sucks, my family history isn’t healthy, lots of cancers, so I had always thought adoption was the way to go for any kids I’d want
