[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, I’ll bite 9:01. I am that woman they are protecting. After multiple years trying, multiple failures, and a miscarriage I don’t want to see your daughter at the fertility clinic. For three months after my miscarriage, I did not go to parks, libraries during the day, or grocery stores before 7pm because seeing a child or worse a pregnant woman would set me in a spiral. Having to see your daughter playing in the waiting room while I was waiting for my D and C of a 9 week pregabacy would have destroyed me. Seeing your happy family while waiting for my betas to come back zero would have been a jab in the heart. Waiting in the same space as you while I wait to have my blood drawn for yet another BFN, which I already know the cycle did not work because I tested at home five times, would just be a reminder of how much this process sucks.

I understand that there a many appointments. I understand getting a babysitting is hard and expensive. But, this policy is at a place that is designed for people who are struggling to get pregnant. There a many things you might complain about in this process and many reasons you might post a negative review, but I would seriously ask you to reconsider bringing your child to a fertility clinic. It is painful to many of us and if you can show a little compassion, that would go a long way.[/quote]

I don't mind the policy but your reactions are entirely over the top. Nobody there is having *your* baby. It's not a competition.[/quote]

new poster and no, no, no... her reactions are not "over the top" - don't invalidate another persons feelings because you don't "get" them. have a little compassion.[/quote]

feelings can be irrational and over the top. [/quote]

+1.  PP unfortunately probably can’t get pregnant because of [b]stress and extreme emotion[/b] over pregnancy or lack thereof.  [/quote]

:shock:  :shock:  :shock:

NP.  Wow, I would never have expected to see this response on an IF board.  [/quote]

+100.  That was the meanest and stupidest comment of the past 5 years on this board.[/quote]

I actually agree that feelings are mostly irrational and sometimes over the top. Thankfully, we have rationality to overcome them.[/quote]

I’m the PP from 12:42.  Rational feelings or not, it is not appropriate to imply that a woman dealing with infertility can’t get pregnant due to stress and extreme emotion.  That’s akin to all the clueless fertiles who spent years telling me to just relax, take a vacation, have a margarita, think happy thoughts, etc.  Infertility is a medical condition, not something caused by stress.[/quote]

This has been taken out of the context. The comment about over the top feelings does not refer to infertility itself. All of us going through infertility are perfectly clear that it is a medical condition and no one is saying that anyone should overcome it rationally. The whole rationality debate refers to a poster that is overly emotional at seeing other people's children around her. I am infertile and I am totally ok with other people bringing their children where ever I am.[/quote]
