The more I think about this, the more annoyed I get. I just need to vent a little. DH's friend got married back in March. He and his wife are around 40 years old. He knows about both of my miscarriages and he told my DH that they were trying to get pregnant. Then he starts asking my DH all these nosey questions about IF, about what treatments we've done, what doctors we see, how long it took us to get pg, etc. DH is very private so he didn't tell him much. DH told me this and I felt bad for this guy and his wife. I told him he should have been more helpful and that I'd be happy to talk to the wife about our RE and answer any questions she may have about the drugs or treatments we've used. Well, that never happened. A few weeks after this guy asked my DH all these questions he tells him his wife is 4 months pregnant! He knew she was pg the whole time he was asking DH about our IF issues!! I couldn't believe it. Here I was feeling sorry for them when they are pg and were just being nosey about our issues!! I could not believe the nerve of this guy. He told my DH he asked all those questions because he was worried about a miscarriage. I can't believe he wasn't just up front about it. Instead he pretended to be having IF issues. They're always wanting to do stuff with us but I seriously do not want to be around them. Am I completely out of line or do I have a right to feel this way?
I truly wish that your journey to becoming a mom begins for you soon.
They are going to have to work on regaining your trust.
There are times I think people are nosy when they ask lots of questions but I try and tell myself that I may be educating them not only for if they go through it but if someone close to them goes through it. Maybe if they have a better understanding of IF and what we go through then they may be more supportive of other friends and family going through IF or a m/c.
I agree with hopeful009 that I do not believe he meant to cause you harm or pain, but again I can understand why you feel hurt. Try not to hold on to it though because it will just hurt you more.
