Exactly, they don't know and its not their fault that things can cause offence.
People can only deal with what they know, and if it has been easy for them they won't see the hardship first hand.
Anyway, Munchkin congratulations on your scan. i'm still lurking on the other board.0 -
Thank you. I have everything crossed for your test when do test again. X0

I had a chat with my (very pregnant) doctor about coming off prescription medicines for TTC and even she gave me the spiel! 'Ooh it only took us once, we'll see you soon at the antenatal clinic'
I think she jinxed me. :mad:
Feeling low atm, feel like I'm surrounded by babies and my work is suffering as a result. Think this mood is AF rearing her very ugly head, just don't know how long I can do this for!
Fingers crossed for you HappyLassie13, had no idea there were old school pregnancy tests out there! Think Sat is when AF is due for me too, so I hope we both get what we are hoping for0 -

You would think a Doctor would know better than to make such a comment! People do make comments that hurt so much, without realising and without any malicious intent. Seeing family and friends experience infertility and loss over the last 2-3 years has definitely made me more cautious of what I say and how. It definitely depends on your own experiences and those of the people close to you. My SIL commented on how she didn't realise the extent of infertility problems and loss as all her friends got pregnant without trying or in the first month, as same as she did, and none of them have experienced any problems.
I held a little boy (prob around 9 months old) at fat club tonight whilst his Mum weighed. My ovaries definitely ached!0 -
Can i be moved to the If in doubt list please.0

Afternoon all. Been such a busy month, I've literally had chance to login and catch up. Well done to everybody that has caught in the mean time :-)
With it being such a busy month, I've spent far less time stressing about BDing and TTC.
I ran out of ovulation sticks around my fertile week so I've got a rough idea of when I ovulated - I'm approximately 8/9 dpo. AF is always 12 days after ovulation and I typically start spotting two days before...but nothing so far. Not getting my hopes up at all.
BD to all x0 -

I do get tired of the 'So when are you having kids' question (even had it today!) as I just wanted shout at them that I want them now but it's not happening! But as Muchkin said I probably did the same things before without thinking about it much.. it has been a steep learning curve.Swagbuckling since Aug 2016 - Earnings so far.. £55.0

Well no AF, now 5 days late.
I thought she had arrived this morning as there was blood when i wiped (sorry tmi) but 3 hours later and there's not a spec of blood insight.
I'd rather she just comes, stays for a week and then disappears instead of leaving me in limbo..
Hope you're all doing well.0
