Me: You're entitled to your opinion but so am I. If you've never suffered through IF, you have no right to judge how it feels. I'm just the one who chose to voice my opinion. 1 in 8 couples suffer infertility. That means there's many of your friends that this "joke" hurt but chose to suffer in silence instead of getting yelled at by you insensitive, rude now, people. I hope they realize they aren't alone and you guys don't typically threat your friends that way. A sense of humor is one thing but this just isn't something to joke about.

about an hour ago ? Like

Fertile who's stupid: i was told i was infertile and was proven wrong 4 times, in most cases doctors are wrong and do the wrong testing and come to find out it is the partner not you, my mother in law had to go through all of this the tears the happy the everything and you know what she condones pregnancy april fools jokes..... im not rude im honest. oh and my mother in law has 2 children one of which i have married, if someone can afford ivf they can afford adoption too if they cant settle for a child that isnt biologically theirs then they didnt want one too bad in the 1st place did they?

8 minutes ago ? Like

Friend who posted it: OMG ppl it was a freaking joke move on Tyler and I thought it would b funny yes losing a baby sucks yes infertility sucks but geeze it's a DAMN APRIL FOOLS JOKE

7 minutes ago ? Like

Fertile who's stupid: right!! LOL that was my point april fools joke some people cant stand others enjoyment. her area of expertise in her career must be in ivf..... you always see those who have careers in the fields you are getting humor out of get furious over silly things... JOKE JOKE JOKE OMG in the 90s no one would have said a thing... if i am indeed being mean to your friend then im sorry but i dont think i am the bad guy here!

4 minutes ago ? Like

Me pissed off: How many babies did you adopt? Since it's so noble and you somehow believe you get to pass judgement on whether or not I really want a baby? No. I don't work as a Reproductive Endocrinologist (those people who do do IVF). I am one of those 1 in 8 couples. I have been trying for over 2 years. The doctors are not wrong and all the correct tests have been done. I'm not stupid. I know how to be intelligent. You on the other hand are ignorant and judgmental. So what if the infertility "isn't me"? Should I leave my husband? Is that what you did? Since you PROVED THEM WRONG! And ps- I'm glad your mother in law says so. I'd forgotten she was omnipotent.

    you are such a douche.  i conceived on a BREAK. this wasnt exactly a 'non-IF' baby.  so i guess everyone else on here or on SAIF who got pregnant on a break are not really IF?  you should go over there and tell them that!  really, go ahead.

    I understand break babies. YOU are the one who said you were better than me since I didn't have a baby and you did from no treatments. I see your selective memory is acting up. Good thing you deleted all your old posts about it. I'd hate for your group of newb followers to see your real light.

    Seriously, just bow out gracefully. You know you said it. I know you said it. Nothing you can do will ever undo it.  

    Why did you say it? I don't know. Probably because you're a b!tch and know I'm struggling with MFI. I believe your words were in the realm of "At least we know my husband can knock me up without help".. Good for you CV. You're better than me. You got your baby without help. Something I can't do- or rather can do but keep losing. Maybe that's why you're better? You can keep the babies. 

    Whatever the reason, just go back to how it was. I'm not posting in your threads, stay out of mine. If you don't like my FB conversation, stay out of it. Wow, that's tough for you I know.

  • Gotta agree with Katib on this one...I am just going with "if you dont have anything nice to say, dont say anything at all!" (in reference to the CV comments)

    As for this person and FB, my BP definitely just rose and want to punch her in the throat a few times. Just because you can afford IVF does not mean you will get pregnant. And i HATE HATE HATE HATE how everyone thinks adoption is the "cure" to my infertility. That still wont make me ovulate and still wont get me knocked up and still wont stop me from miscarrying. And it still wont be my kid! SMH at that "you must not have wanted a baby that bad" or whatever she said. Damn people! And again going with Katib that you wouldn't joke about having cancer or any other illness so why does everyone joke about fertility?

    SO sorry you had to endure that and read it and be a part of it. Glad to hear you have since deleted it and hopefully can forget about it. I hate how ignorant some people are and they will never "get it". Hugs to you darlin!
