[quote=Anonymous]I was somewhat in your shoes, so I understand where you're coming from. My H and I struggled with infertility for many years and my 20 yr old cousin got his gf pregnant for the 2nd time in a year (she already had one abortion). They didn't want to be parents. I offered to adopt, but was quickly rebuffed. While I know my offer came from a good place, to them it was an insult and a judgment, which I can appreciate. It's also extremely awkward for them because we are all family. The long and short of it was, they kept the baby and mostly rely on grandma to raise her. All that to say, I understand. I also want to caution you that your frustration and judgment of them is tinted with your IF struggles. That cannot serve anyone well. You have to detach. Block the family updates to protect your mental health. [/quote]
