[quote=Anonymous]When people are in pain, sometimes they can't see anything but themselves. It's not nice, but they really can't help themselves. My XH's sisters and SIL were cold to me because I simply had secondary infertility and they had all struggled with primary (married in late 30s, first attempts to conceive in early 40s). Really cruel, nasty stuff disguised as jokes when I had an early loss. Outright emotionally abusive when I conceived again naturally years later. It was all so stupid and dick because I was hurting just as much and ultimately they each had 3 kids through donor eggs or adoption and I have only 2. His current partner has primary infertility (she also didn't TTC until early 40s) and my former SILs have this great bond based on shared pain with her. Your SIL may never be able to understand how she hurt you. Just foster the relationship with your DD for the children's sake.[/quote]
