[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are a million places I am in control of my emotions. At work when pregnant coworkers are everywhere. At the movies. At restaurants. At brunch when my friends announce they are pregnant. I tried very hard to avoid places that would be triggers, like parks, grocery store during morning weekend hours, so that I did not have to manage my emotions. The one place I should not have to put on a brave face about being infertile is at my infertility clinic. It’s like expecting an open bar at an AA meeting and then being shocked that “alcohol exists in the world, can’t these people deal?”.

And no. No one is having my baby and them being pregnant does not increase or decrease my odds, but it does remind me of what I am missing and how unfair the process feels - wait until older, stable jobs, own home, and then it is “too late” and not working out. I don’t wish them not to be pregnant. It just hurts. And getting pregnant and miscarrying sucks. If you have not had to experience failed cycles and miscarriages, you are super blessed but can’t possibly understand. But the office has a stated policy and it is clear. Please respect that and those who are in a different place in their journey.[/quote]

a had 3 failed IVFs and a MC. I don't mind the policy and don't even find it all that inconvenient. still, your reactions are over the top.[/quote]
