Feeling a little sad about IF today.

in Infertility
I went in to school today and I saw a bunch of people that I have not seen since June.
I am really one of the few women who have not had kids yet in my building and I am BY FAR the oldest of those who do not.
If anything, I am thinner than I was in June, and when I saw some of the "older" women, when they remarked about my weight, I could tell they were thinking... we thought for sure you'd be PG. It makes me so sad as I should have a 26 week belly to show off. 
Blech.
Can't wait to see just how many people come back KU'd. (not really)
It is just so unfair.

Re: Feeling a little sad about IF today.
ugh. I am so so sorry. Being a teacher must be the worst place for having to be around pg women.
I really wish we were both still 26+ weeks pregnant - I'm also really really hoping that you can get your butt over to SAIF ASAP.
((Hugs))
also - keep remembering how awesome you look compared with them!!!
TTC since March 2007 - currently on hold
I'm so sorry...that is the worst feeling. If one more of my colleagues says to me, "I thought for sure you'd come back to school pg this year!" I may kick someone.
Sending you hugs! Some days just stink that way.
It is hard going back to school, everyone speculates about who is pg. I am sure there will be a lot this year. I have been anxious for the start of school for some of the same reasons you were mentioning. It's tough!
I'm sorry! I go through that same thing every year when we come back in Aug. I work with mostly older women, all of whom have children. There are a handful of younger teachers--all new mommies and/or newly pregnant. It makes me really sad!
Don't worry, we're going to be joining them soon...I know it!!! Hugs!
TTC since 2007
6 IUIs, 3 IVFs, and 2 m/c :< PCOS, Blood Clotting Disorder & MFI
IVF #2 Aug 2011 is a BFN:<
IVF #3 March 2012 is a BFN
Not sure what to do now. Sad and lost.
I like to think of it this way...
by having my kids later in life, I will be reclaiming a little bit of my youth... Can then hang out with all the younger moms who never got to do all the cool thinks I did the past 15 years while I wasn't raising kids!
Think how wise we will be when we raise our kids...
((HUGS)) from me and mr. worm
he also had a bad IF day
He said to drink some blue moons for him, he can't drink on meds
Your turn is coming very soom and I hope that you're the first KU teacher in your school this year!

I am so sorry. Some days are harder than others but just know your time will come.
I'm so sorry. That is really hard.
Try and think about it the other way though...they are all probably really jealous of your weight loss! Let's be honest here...as a woman, when we see another woman who has lost weight we think about how much we'd like to do the same!
