[quote=Anonymous]Our parents, SIL, and a few friends know we have to do IVF. I have mixed feelings about openly sharing this for many of the reasons already mentioned. My parents however only know that we need to do IVF, they don't know how far along in the process we are vs my in-laws and SIL know that we're on our second round. With my parents (i.e., my mom), I know she'll tell everyone or share with me how someone she knows went through this or their daughter is going through this. It's not that I don't want to hear about others going through the process b/c I do. It's the way she shares info and how she shares it that is not helpful. I've found that with IVF and other topics, I share with people who I trust and whose response will be helpful. Earlier this year I had a significant medical issue come up and felt guilty about sharing with my in-laws but not with my parents but then realized that I wouldn't get from them what I needed.
