Does anyone feel sad or upset when they encounter pregnant fertility center staff?

[Anonymous]

Things that make me feel sad or upset:

1) Pregnant fertility center staff
2) Pregnant fertility center patients
3) Pregnant everyone else, particularly in the elevator with me
4) The pregnancy test aisle of the supermarket
5) Pampers commercials
6) Baby clothes at Target
7) Breathing.

I think that covers it!

I get it, sister.

Actually I think this is the least entitled "others are pregnant and I'm not" posts I've ever seen on DCUM

I was thinking the same thing. The posters were all saying "yeah, it hurts a little bit but I understand that's me not them". We have had threads where posters seem to expect more from their clinic in terms of shelter than realistically possible but that wasn't on display here.

At my clinic, the woman who drew blood was very pregnant for a portion of my time there. She was the fastest and best blood taker there so days she was off I realized I'd rather have a good pregnant technician over a bad not pregnant one any day!

This had to be Catherine...she was the best!

Ha! I loved my nurse Catherine at GW and it seemed she was ALWAYS pregnant but damn if she didn't work her heart out to help me have my baby and subsequent babies (I have 3 now!). I owe my sanity to that woman as I would not have gotten through this process without her by my side.

This made me smile. I could have written this exactly, except I have 2 kids to show for it! She's not at GW anymore. It's really great to hear she had the same meaning for other people. What an amazing thing to do for a living really, when you think about it.
