[quote=Anonymous]This happens all the time to relatives and friends of mine who have one child.  It won't stop.  Even when your child is 10.  My sister has an only child who's 13 and she still gets asked why she doesn't have a sibling for her child and etc.  All the time.  It's very annoying to have to justify your choices (or no choices in infertility cases).

We struggled with IF as well and were married for 5 years before our child was born.  In those 5 years I got asked ALL the time when we would have children.  By family, friends, coworkers, random neighbors.  This was while we were struggling to conceive or going through the fertility hormone roller coaster.  I tried not to be rude as I know that people don't mean anything bad when they ask, it's a normal question to ask or to wonder about...  But it was a constant reminder of our struggles and I sure as hell wasn't going to get into the whole IF conversation with them.  So I just sucked it up and said that we will one day.  Try not to take it personally though, for your own sanity.[/quote]
