Infertility Veterans

Please tell me tomorrow will be better (vent)

I went to my friend's baby shower yesterday. This is the gal I work with who had success on her second round of IVF last fall. I almost made it through the whole thing too without a question or comment but about 5 minutes before I left, her sister (who used to work with us) said "So, when are you going to have kids? You're the only one at <company name> without kids now." I mumbled something to the effect of "Oh, I don't know, we'll see..." and quickly changed the subject. I KNEW I wasn't going to get out of there without someone saying SOMETHING.

Then today at work, a co-worker of mine jumped all over me because I put an update request on his desk, basically telling me he doesn't have time and he and I need to "talk" about everything that's on his plate (mind you, I didn't give him a deadline on this update, he can do it whenever he can fit it in and I told him as much). Then he proceeded to complain about me to the person he sits next to (thinking I couldn't hear him). He's REALLY passive-aggressive...it's so frustrating...he always does this and then comes back an hour or so later apologizing...I don't need this BS today.

Oh and to top it off, I'm pretty sure this cycle was bust. I know I'm not out until I test or AF shows up, but our sperm count was the lowest we've ever had it with this IUI and our timing wasn't great, so I'm just going with the odds here based on our previous cycles.

OK...vent over.

  • So sorry you are having a bad day, I'm going to assume tomorrow will be better Wink

    I hate it when people ask me when I'm going to have kids, it's so awkward and uncomfortable, your response is the same response I use... it's so annoying!!

    Like you told me, don't count yourself out yet, there is always a chance!!

    I'm sorry you're having such a rough day, but I hope you can think of some positives to get you through the rest of the day.

    We also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And HOPE does not dissappoint.
