Yes, my cousin's husband actually said that to me. Whilst SNAPPING HIS FINGERS no less. In all fairness, they do not know about our IF, or about our recent m/c. But still. He said now that I am unemployed, I should get started on a family cause we need some kids running around on Christmas. I stared at him blankly because I did not know what to say, and then I went to the bathroom because I had started crying and didn't want to make a big production out of it. He is normally an *ss, so I guess I wouldn't expect any different... But still, it stung.
Re: "You should get started on a family... chip chop, chip chop!!"
OMG. I think that would have been the point where I said "well I just had a m/c so maybe you should think before you snap your fingers at me!"
I'm so sorry that happened.

I'm so sorry!! Well, if it's any consolation, my DH's granny asked me, yet again, yesterday when we're going to have a baby...which was quickly followed by the proverbial "you're not getting any younger you know"...Man I just love family time at the holidays...
Ugh! ?I'm so sorry! ?((hugs)) ?I agree that it sounds like you handled it very well.?
I don't care if he knew about your IF or MC, or not - he was still still way out of line. How does he know you're not childless by choice?
What did you cousin have to say about this?
