DCG – Sorry about AF being a PITA but glad you are onto your next cycle. Fingers crossed for you that this is the lucky.
I agree that people aren’t intentionally insensitive but jeez it’s hard to keep a straight face sometimes. Some of my not-so-favourite moments in the last 3 weeks:
• at a 2 year olds birthday party the day after finding out I was going to miscarry again, being asked if I had children;
• receiving the OB’s schedule of fees in the mail again after I found out I was going to miscarry with “Congratulations” written in big letters on the front page;
• when talking to a colleague about work issues, she said just leave and have babies.
I have taken to telling close friends if they ask, but most of them are pretty good anyway. It’s really hard at work because it will be a seriously career limiting move for me to have a child so I don’t want to say that we are trying but I also refuse to lie and say we aren’t planning on having kids. I generally laugh it off and say something like “I’m 38, who even knows if we can” and then joke about my nice kid free lifestyle (which is a lot closer to the truth than they would realise of course).
Yes, DH is very proud. He also tells me what a “saint” he is because he is willing to martyr himself by practising BD all the time!
Lanie, My test grade from FF is "good" DH passed out the next two nights immediately after work, and in truth I was right behind him. I guess the BDing and work stuff has us tuckered out
