1. "your time will come".... (yeah right)

2. "god works in mysterious ways "...

3. "you cant miss what you never had" ( wtf )

4. "it will happen when you least expect it".

5. "the doctors not always right" ...

6. "maybe its for the best your not really maternal"...(mmm thanx)

7. "yous are so lucky you dont have kids and yous are out travelling the world"....

8."it will happen when you least expect it"...(sure thats just great)

9."you should be happy with what you have"..

10."when you relax and stop trying it will happen"......(yeah right)

11."i wish i had that problem ..why don't ya's just take mine"

12." my freinds sister adopted a baby then one year later she found out was pregnant".

i have since found out it will never happen so now people just ignore the subject altogether which believe it or not is actually worse...

	ugh...people are so mean. I miscarried this year and most pple pretend it never happened. And, everyone is always saying, "If you just stop worrying about it/talking about it, it'll happen." doesn't it always seem that the people who say these things have no problem getting pregnant at all- so how would they know?

I had a relative tell me when I discussed my infertility with her; This is not the worst thing that could happen to you... You have many options including adoption... I know there are many children out there in need of a home but I would love to have my own... This comment came from someone who has 4 children of her own and 10 grandchildren... I was shocked at how someone who has no idea how it feels to go through what were going through could make such comments... No sensitivity...

Ladies i wish you the best... Baby Dust, Good Luck!!!

	yea my sister is problably the most hurtfull person on the face of this earth as i pull out a brand new baby blanket i baught for faith reasons, she asked "whats that" i said my babies blanket and she said "why don't you just give up you will never have children no matter how hard you try." Sad yes but then i found it might happen i have not told her the possibilities.

god, whatever happended to just saying im sorry or that sucks, ! im sorry you ladies are hearing this crap.
Ailin, don't listen to that. it's hard enough we tell ourselves things will never happen, but we don't need anyone else adding to that. im not a big positive patty, more of a negative nancy, LOL, but dh is big on 'speaking things into existence' as in think positive. so you keep talking about your baby like they are already on their way, and soon they will be.
