We all know that phrase "at least you know you can get pregnant" is the worst. But I will go out on a limb and say that it might not be as offensive if this was a pregnancy and miscarriage after 6 months of trying.
3 years, 42 cycles, and three IVF's does not make me feel better about our chances for success in the future. However, now that I've tasted success, I am more likely to try again. More likely than I was two months ago.
I am also three glasses of wine in. Consider me buzzed.
Heh. Maybe cycle #69 will be the winner!

most men (other than our DH's) just don't get it, I'm sure. Of course he probably meant well, but I get that doesn't make the sting any less. You drink you wine girl. HUGS

I really, really wish that when people didn't know what to say, they saved the stupid comments and just said a simple I love you, or I'm thinking about you.
Please feel free to have the whole bottle.
I did. And now I'm going for a nap.

I usually lurk these boards, but everyone and their mom told me this when my husband and I were TTC. It made me want to carry around a glass of something to slosh in their face, hah. Cheers! :-(

It's true. People are going to say some really stupid sh&t when it comes to this. They are basically clueless what to say but don't realize that sometimes nothing but an "I am sorry" is all you want to hear. I couldn't talk to people for at least a week cause I didn't want to hear all the cliche stuff I knew I would hear.
