I am beginning to hate Christmas.

I am beginning to hate Christmas because since we have no kids, we are invisible to everyone.  We went no where last night and have no where to go today because my family has other places to go and DH's family is in South Florida. My sister, who has 2 kids, is soooo busy with taking her family else where that we are just a memory until they have time again.  I am bitter and this is probably ridiculous but I feel bad.  I feel bad that DH and I sit at home and do NOTHING because 1.  nothing is open and 2. it appears we have been forgotten.  At least his family will call us later.

Ugh!

Me: 35   DH:  29

TTC:  Since 10-31-2007

Dx:  Me: PCOS, an-ovulation    DH:  Nothing so far

2007-2011 - Tried Clomid, Ovidrel Trigger with TI -BFN

11/2013 - back to RE for new plan.

Cycle 1: Letrozole cd3-7; U/S cd12 (27mm left); ovidrel trigger; progesterone test and suppositories - BFN

HSG- 12/16/13 - clear and "Beautiful" per Dr. Attaran

Cycle 2- Letrozole cd3-7, ovidrel trigger, progesterone test and suppositories-BFN

BENCHED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

    I'm sorry. There are no kids on either side of the family for us, but my brother hosted last night and this morning. Then we had to leave by noon today so they could go to the other side and DH's family is far away. So we are also going to be home alone today. Hopefully you can find a way to have a fun day together!

    I'm sorry, that sucks. We were alone yesterday and we decided to make spaghetti, have a few drinks, and watch reruns of Modern Family, Big Bang Theory, and Family Guy. I hope time and lonliness passes quickly for you today.

    OP, (((hugs))) I am sorry you feel forgotten... it's not a good feeling. The holidays are hard when going through IF, and I'm sorry you feel abandoned by your family on top of it. I hope you and your husband were able to have a nice, quiet Christmas together.

    @childtocherish, I'm sure you're trying to help, but your comment rubs me the wrong way. Maybe this approach works for you, but to me, your advice sounds condescending and judgmental. Maybe I am just extra sensitive these days, but the more I read it, the more it upsets me.
