So yesterday was interesting. Where do I begin? Well a good friend of mine has a 14 month old and she had given me the heads up that they were starting to TTC again this month (I appreciated the advance warning). So last weekend she tells me her period is due in a couple of days and she's having heartburn etc. (again I appreciate the warning) So yesterday she came into get treated by me and breaks the news that she is once again expecting on her first cycle off the pill (same thing happened with her 1st). I'm happy for her, really I am. I love her, she's an awesome friend but WHY???? Why is it so easy for some people. She then proceeded to tell me we (DH and I) just have to get pregnant as soon as we get the go ahead so we can be preggo together. Bless her heart. She thinks that if I get pregnant I'll get to stay that way and even have a live baby.
So then to top off my stellar day we had arranged to go visit our friends 3 week old baby for the required visit and gift giving. Super cute kid. I can't believe I can still manage to hold myself together while holding a baby. Man, I am such a good faker!
No tears at all yesterday, I think I've turned to stone.

Holy cow, the rest of the world's hyperfertility surely makes up for our lack of it. :(
ReplyDeleteTake this assvice for what it's worth, but please protect yourself first where other people's baybeeees are concerned. (I know that's hard to do, though, with friends' offspring.)
That's just brutal. Nice for her, but ouch. I'm impressed you can still handle the baby stuff. I'm impressed I can still handle it at work (you know, telling patients their baby is cute after their c-section is done).
ReplyDeleteI don't understand why some people are blessed with kids, and we're forced to struggle for years to carry one to term.
