    • Thumbs Up

      From Lioness816 December 28, 2009

      That would be a good post to put out there. I've seen them before but it has been a while since the last one went around. There are a lot of options with what you can say and it is up to you what you feel comfortable with. I usually base my reply on the situation and the person I am talking to. But there have been many times when I was honest and said that we have been trying for over 5 years and have done treatments. It still amazes me the responses I get back. I will put people in their place if needed because so many people will come back with "I have a friend who did IVF then got pregnant on their own," "if you relax it will happen," "why don't you JUST adopt..." Grrr.... There really needs to be more public education about iIF. I was thinking the other day that I have seen more of it on the baby shows lately but TLC does shows about EVERYTHING, they need to do more coverage on IF!
      Well, now I have just vented all over your hug page. :-) Again, that would be a good post and I bet it would help a lot of people right now. These questions seem to come up more around the holidays.

      I am so sorry you are hurting so much. I also hate those questions about children because I always get "the look" when I tell them I don't have any. In most cases I tell them we plan to have children and try to leave it at that. Remember we are all here for you. The holiday season is almost over and I will be praying for your miracle in 2010. {{{{{HUG}}}}}

      Oh sweetie...I didn't know the 7th was your due date. I read your journal entry and hope you're having a better day today.
