[quote=Anonymous]I'll buck the trend here and say I was fairly open about it with people who asked. Holding that "big secret" inside was absolutely torturous and EXHAUSTING!! Plus once we told certain nosy family members (especially my IL's) it really shut them up and they stopped making little cutesy comments to us all the time. Now that I have 1 child I'm super open about it. Now, I don't talk about the specifics of our current treatment with everybody, but I am open about the fact that we need and have needed treatments to conceive. I realized that I felt shame about admitting that in the past, and that there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to be ashamed of. I have a medical condition just like anyone else would have a medical condition. It's taboo because we make it that way.[/quote]
