So last night I had a friend refer to herself as infertile. I made a comment About a dragon fly that was flying around us and I said I hope that's a good luck sign because it's a symbol for infertility and I'm suppose to have IUI # 1 in like 2 weeks. She has no known health issues and has had two losses. One voluntary ((DONT GET ME STARTED. THATS A WHOLE ANOTHER DISCUSSION)) and one that wasn't voluntary. She knows that I am going through some issues of my own and I can't even make sense of why she's referred to herself as "infertile". Bitch you've been pregnant 2x since April!!!!!!!!!!!! Do some research before you start labeling yourself because you are seriously mistaken.
Sorry. Just needed to vent. I'm still so annoyed about this.

Once my sister came to me whining about how she was pretty sure she was infertile (me of all people, when I had been trying for almost 2 years at time time) because she didn't get pregnant when she had been trying for 3 months! And when she finally got pregnant, she promptly texted me her digi BFP and went on and on about how it was probably a false positive for no reason whatsoever. Ugh!

I honestly don't think anyone meant anything in their comments but I'm so glad @Rumbera28 said something because I myself as someone with repeat losses cringe when certain comments are made. I just normally never say anything, sometimes I even feel I don't even belong in the "IF" category. It took me forever to come to terms with I actually have an IF problem.
That being said I think this board is still awesome because everyone can say exactly how they feel.
