Agree about the first tri. Two coworkers wives are in their first tri, one pretty early (like 8 or 9 weeks) and it is very uncomfortable. It's too early to share with non-close people. |
Jindc, I agree. I had implantation bleeding (we now know) and my OB/GYN had me take it easy because they didnt know if I was about to m/c or if it was the former. I didn't tell my colleagues until I was 15 weeks because I sorta had to (was still sick and oversleeping every morning). Two of my friends, including one who was TTC for 2 years, told their coworkers at the 6 week mark this year and I was so nervous for them. |
PP I couldn't agree more. I've started responding to people who say that. Just to let them know that there are people out there who suffer and struggle for years and years just to have one baby.
To the people who say "relax", I say, well if I could go out and get a massage and magically have a baby appear I would but I can't. My patience and sympathy are pretty much non existent these days...... |
My RE is very empathetic to us and he posted this today:
http://fertilegrounds.dominionfertility.com/profiles/blogs/stress-and-the-holiday-season It really sums up how I feel about my co workers and acquaintances announcing their pregnancies, then adding "we've only been trying for a month" ARRGGG!!! |
meant to add that IF has turned me into Scrooge |
OMG PP I have become a monster this season so you are not alone, I just saw that decal it made me laugh! It's how we all feel some days, but hopefully not forever. |
Saw that decal on FB and I had to laugh, even though I want a family to be obnoxious about someday |
Funny, that gave me a smile even though I have been so consumed with grief, maybe 2013 will bring better results to our IF efforts. |
sometimes we need to laugh about this crazy IF roller coaster, I can definitely relate to the feeling displayed on that bumper sticker....Shut up family with a gazillion kids and just why do you feel the need to display your fertile achievements with the rest of us? Okay I'm done, but I vow to never be obnoxious about my kids if and when I ever get pregnant. |
Yup sums up how I feel especially having to spend Christmas with my very fertile siblings. |
Remember sex just the fun?

No my DH and I haven't had sex for fun in over a year....IF has killed the romance. |
