[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i'm sorry - its so normal. i was at the fertility clinic after my IVF miscarriage and this couple was at the check out talking loudly about their twin sonograms (strollers and other stupid stuff). Obviously they were excited but I couldn't believe that a couple who had gone through a fertility treatment to get pregnant would be so - i don't know - insensitive to the other people there.... anyway.. the point is, its so easy to feel invisible when the world seems to be getting everything you want. and i think its easy for pregnant people to be mindless (mostly unintentionally) of the struggles other folks are facing.[/quote]

Wow, I go to SGF and I feel like it's always SO quiet in there. Even if you get good news, you walk out quietly until you're in your car. I remember after my first miscarriage, I was sitting in the waiting room of my regular OB (before we realized we had fertility issues etc) and there were so many pregnant women, I thought I was going to die.

A few months ago I went to see my RE after two failed IVF cycles, to talk about whether it made sense to continue.  The couple who saw him before me had brought their baby. For fifteen minutes I heard the baby cooing from inside his closed consultation room. Then the couple came out and sat in the waiting room with the baby on the husband’s lap. My RE called me back and by the time I got into the room, I was bawling. So incredibly sad, so incredibly jealous, so humiliated and so angry that I was put in that situation. [/quote]

Put in that situation?  That’s an interesting way to phrase it...[/quote]
