TTC after 35

Grey's....yes Merideth I'd love to know....

For those that watch Grey's Anatomy.....I was nearly sobbing when Mer did her little rant about how She needed someone to explain why the universe is so cruel......She was jealous of Callie getting PG without trying..then Callie ends up flying through a windshield. Mer injects herself, temps daily, legs in the air all the time.....and still no baby. The universe is a cruel cruel thing that makes no sense.

Just feeling less than positive today...too much daytime tv I guess.

  • So it wasn't just me then.  I swear, my DH is going to ban me from the tv soon.  Between the Grey's episode last night and the goings on on General Hospital (a character - well, three characters lost their 4 yr old son to a hit and run driver.  One character - every time he starts to cry, I can't stop myself!!) my DH says I should stop watching tv because it makes me cry.  Tongue Tied
    Married September 2010, ttc since August 2010. So far - nothing
    Me: 40, Husband: 33

    Yup Im a GH watcher too.....there are not many shows on tv that do not deal with babies! Sometimes it is very hard to watch tv.

  • I thought they did a good job of explaining our feelings about IF.  Most people never have to think of it. I was hoping my mother was watching it as she never asks me about the IF. I tell her what's going on but she doesn't really say much. I feel like Merideth's words can help explain it to the "fertiles".
