ANNOYING TTC COMMENTS- Album #3

This came from my sister that 2 days before my wedding
told me that the "race" was on for the first grandchild.
Then when she became pregnant after trying for
2 months she had the nerve to tell me that
she understands how I feel because it took
her awhile to get pregnant .
My response WOW 2 months to get
pregnant try 2 years and still trying.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I couldn't resist adding this one:

after our newborn died an aquintance said
"At least you didn't breastfeed"
UGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

' have you tried holding a new born baby'

.. it worked for me, I got pregnant immediately
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I love it when my SIL informs me of the MONTH they plan on conceiving
(it has worked out for them twice, and they are planning their 3rd next March!).
Then she says how she feels bad that is so easy for them
when we have had so much trouble.
THEN DON'T TELL ME ABOUT IT!!!!!!

I also have a friend who is so upset because they have been
trying for over a year and have to try clomid now.
SHE HAS 3 ALREADY.
Right now I'd be soooo happy with one.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


The most annoying comment I have received was from my in-laws.
My father-in-law told me to either have a child
or he would send me on the next bus smoking!!!
The hardest part is that I already raise my
two stepkids by marriage!
I guess that's not good enough!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


A woman I work with said, We (my 1st husband)
having trouble for 6 months and we went to the
Dr. and he told my husband to wear boxers
and 2 weeks later I was pregnant.
Come on we all know it takes 3 month for sperm development,
but she swears that's what it was even though
I told her about the 3 month sperm thing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have been ttc for 2 years now and on clomid round 4
I finally fell pg this month and I shared this with
a work mate later I m/c and shared this with her also...
she is also a PCOS sufferer like myself....
her comments after I told her of m/c was to smile
the biggest smile and say "Thats Great!!"
I could have punched her there and then...
she went on to say
"At least you know you can fall pg now"
she wasnt the only one to say this....
right after m/c you want compassion
not ok get started again!!

Hi, Momma Kath,

It's not really a comment, but do you know what I hate?
I am a speech pathologist in a public school in Hawaii.
The drug problems here are considerable and I work with
a lot of children who were born drug addicted.
Many of them are in foster homes as a result.
It upsets me to no end every time I attend a meeting
for one of these children and I hear that "bio mom" is pregnant again...
and still on ice. There is no justice when it comes to conception,
apparently. I believe in God, I really do, but why,
oh why would He allow these women to get pregnant repeatedly
when people like me don't? I don't do drugs,
I am married to a man who will be a wonderful father,
and I am planning to be a stay-at-home mom.
I don't think my choices are necessarily right for everyone,
but we are doing what we want to be able to provide the best life
we can see for our baby. The baby that has not yet been conceived.
It's just wrong.

Thanks for letting me vent a little.

Tara

I had just lost our first at 61/2 months due to preterm labor.
I was released from the hospital the day
before the funeral to find my in-laws at our house.
That day, my brother-in-law called
to find out the time of the funeral the next day.
They just had their second, six weeks before,
of course without even trying!
My father-in-law then says over the phone
that "Sarah (me), wouldn't mind
if they brought the kids - we would all love to see them."
Excuse me-but no I wouldn't love to see them!
I couldn't believe their insensitivity!
I went to our bedroom and cried for hours.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The most annoying comment made to me was:
"Aren't you being selfish? You are lucky to have the child you have!"
This came from my mother-in-laws best friend, who is 50ish.
She had two more children after miscarriage.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From a 'good friend' when he heard I had just had
another miscarriage after ttc for ten months
after the first miscarriage: Yes it's terrible,
I know how you feel. My girlfriend accidentally
got pregnant a few months ago
( at the time they'd been together
3 months and using contraception)
and it was a really hard decision
but she had the abortion at ten weeks,
I hope she doesn't fall again...
And the mother-in-law;
I told you not to leave it so late..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My best friend who started ttc the same time as I did
(her baby is 7 months old now)
said after I reported symptoms that are similar to pregnancy:
"I heard that when women want to get pregnant
bad enough they start making up symptoms."
Well, AF came today and I still have the flu...go figure!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I just got asked yesterday from a loud mouth in a college class,
"So, you're married?" yessss "Do you have little ones?"
noooo "And why not???"
What do I say in response?
Should I go into the whole story
of passing out in the doctor's office
in agony and the emergency surgery?
Or my husband's low sperm motility?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One so called friend offered to lend me her husband to get pregnant.
One customer in the restaurant where I work drew a penis on my order pad
and told me that was what I should use to get pregnant(this was a guy).
Another quite older man offered to help since my husband obviously
didn't know how!! One co-worker got pregnant with her third while on
BCPs. Another claims she can get pregnant if "her husband shoots it at
the wall!" My best friend got pregnant with both kids the first month
she went off the pill. I feel like I am surrounded by fertile people
and there is something wrong with me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My most annoying comment was
"just get drunk,
have wild sex& stop thinking about it"
Oh, that's the secret.
THANKS! :) lol
