Is it just me....

in TTC After a Loss
or does the amount of pregnancy-related advertisements/reminders always increase exponentially when you're already upset about TTC-related issues????

I know that companies need to advertise and make money but if I see that commercial for the woman who announces that she's 2 weeks pregnant again I might hurl something at the TV! I'm going to start watching shows on a 5 or 10 minute delay so I can just fast forward through commercials. Thank goodness for DVRs!

    I hate that commercial, too. Plus, I think it makes it really confusing for people by saying "2 weeks pregnant." They mean 2 weeks from conception, but most people would call that "4 weeks."

    I also agree with this. Why couldn't they make it say 4 weeks instead of 2?
