TTC After a Loss

"when are you guys going to try"

"are you trying"

"when is it going to be your turn"

"maybe you are trying too hard"

"just relax and it will happen"

"hey a m/c is better than having a retarded kid"

i'm so sick and tired of hearing this shiit.  i think the next person that asks about his sperm in my ute i'm going to tell them one of these lines:

"we aren't going to have kids"

"we would rather travel the world and enjoy our lives"

"kids are too expensive these days"

"we don't want to risk having a kid that grows up to be a meth addict"

"yeah, my husband isn't getting the job done, is yours available?"

Re: "when are you guys going to try"

  • Oh, Texas!  This is perfect.  I will save these for the next family function Wink

    How about we add one...

    "we thought about it, but after seeing your kids we decided to get a dog"

    well ok, really they said, "well there was probably something really wrong with the baby so it was better that way"

    ummm, we would have loved our baby no matter what was wrong with him/her.  it's called unconditional love. 

  • love these suggestions :)
  • "we stopped trying when we thought our kid may end up acting like yours and it scared us" 

    hehe....

    lol, that's great.  i'm sure when they got in the car to leave they were talking about you.  lol.   ah fck them if they can't take a joke. 
  • I've been going with, "We think we might be doing it wrong.  He sticks it in my bellybutton, right?"

    lol...bellybutton.....lol
  • I only told my husband and two 25 yr. old nieces.  As soon as I told one of my nieces about my loss,  she responded by saying "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh."  That was so hard to hear and still very hard to accept.

    I've started telling people that we're not going to have kids, but I'm definitely saving this one for this July when we go visit DH's cousin with 4 kids all aged 5 and under. Eeek.?
