[quote=Anonymous]I am an only child who loved being an only child, so the question is off the bat insensitive from that perspective.  But I also suffer from secondary infertility, and had way too many people ask me intrusive questions about my plans for a second.  After my sixth consecutive loss I started saying things like, "oh her siblings are in heaven" just to shut them up, and I am agnostic!

*TRIGGER WARNING*

I am 20 weeks pregnant, this is my 10th pregnancy counting my one living child.  A dental hygienist recently commented on my potential age gap while I was sitting in that chair, feeling vulnerable, as one does when their teeth are about to be scraped.  She wouldn't stop.  "Wow, your daughter is 8!  That's quite a gap.  Aren't you worried?  Are you happy?"

Well, seeing as my daughter has 8 siblings who didn't make it this far, yeah I'd say we're pretty happy right now.

MIC DROP.

Hugs OP.  I may be one of the lucky ones who actually brings a second baby into the world, and it's STILL hard.
