[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't this kind of your fault for not telling her?[/quote] No, because bugging people about when they are going to have a kid or when they are going to have a second, or suggesting that you're not a "real family" unless you have at least two kids, is always inappropriate. You shouldn't need to be told that someone is struggling with infertility to know that. If my mom said that about the real family (which she never would, because she is a decent person), I'd respond, "I'm sorry to hear that you don't think we are a real family. Fortunately, we do." Or comments about when you're going to have another, I'd answer, "It will happen when it happens." And tell people once that you're really tired of this conversation, and after that, just ignore or walk away when they bring it up. [/quote] +1 Why is everyone acting like the "real family" comment is only hurtful because they're experiencing infertility?[/quote]
