Afraid to open Christmas cards

I had my 2nd pg announcement in a card today.  So not fun crying on your cards.  I love getting cards in the mail, but now I am afraid to open any more.

    sorry ((hugs))

    I have yet to get any of those... now I am scared, though I think the card from DH's 60+ aunt and uncle today was safe to open. Wink

    O my...I didnt even think of PG announcements in the cards, guess I will let DH open them from now on!  I sent out christmas cards with my dog on them!  You know your infertile when your dog is the only thing on your cards :)

    I'm sorry, but I can't think of a reason to put an ultrasound or pg announcement in a Christmas card.  

     

    I can guarantee anyone, the people who are going to be excited for you already know, the rest of the people don't care or will probably think it was a tacky way to announce it.

     I feel the same way about people who put belly shots week by week on the internet without shirts on, so maybe it's just me.

     

    Call me the grinch  :).

    I know.....and I feel the same way about sending ours.  I'm afraid people will open ours and see the pic of DH & I, and think, "awww....poor them....they still don't have a baby". :(  I hope this is the last year for that.

    I'm so sorry.  I feel the same way.  The first batch of X-mas cards came in the mail today and I have to take a deep breath with each one I open - it's so tough to see all the babies!
