I didn't want to hijack the previous post, but I felt I had to respond to you.

I cannot believe that people would be upset to see that someone is pregnant via their ticker to the point that you have to have a warning on the post. I don't see why she would have to edit that it is a surprise like that is a bad thing.

You never know. Your friend could be happy for you just as my sister was for me. Not everyone who is having trouble getting pregnant is hyper sensitive about it.

You're right--you never know. But I'd much rather the OP be sensitive to how her friend might feel than to just act as most fertiles do, which is to practically flaunt their fertility without thinking about other people's feelings.

I'm glad your sister reacted well to your pregnancy. I really am. I usually do, too. But right now I'm having a hard time with a pregnant friend who got pregnant 2 weeks after starting TTC, and I don't know if our relationship will ever be the same.

I didn't say a surprise was a bad thing, I just pointed out how some people may view it. As someone who has suffered with IF for 3+ years, hearing that a pregnancy was unplanned is not only unnecessary, but makes me feel like they're mocking my infertility.
