Hiding an IUD from husband
So, I need help (no judgement please). My husband and I have always talked about having more kids. Our son is 4 now, and so I have had plenty of time to realize I’m not ready for another child. My husband still very much wants more kids, and I felt like we were never going to come to an agreement.
I got an IUD this week without telling him because I felt strongly that I’m not ready, and I didn’t want a huge fight over it. I know people will say I should have told him. I understand that side too... and feel guilty
Now I’m anxious about intimacy because I’m worried he’ll somehow notice the IUD. Has anyone been in a similar situation? Did your partner notice it? I got the iud tuesday!
