I just got an email from a friend who just told me they are expecting their second child in August (first one will be 2 in September)... She told me she was holding off telling me because of all the problems I am going through... It has put me in a crappy mood... Also it seems like eveyone around me telling about people they know that are pregnant and telling me all details... I am getting so sick of it... I'm about to blow off steam on someone... I have told all these people a number of times to back off about pregnancy to me (obviously I did it in a polite way), they are obviously not getting the hint... I feel like I am going to have to be blunt about it if it keeps up...
I am happy for my friend, but just news that I didn't want to hear right now... I have been trying for almost two years and at the point of giving up trying... I don't know what to say back to my friend right now... I know I blew up at her once before and didn't mean too... It just seems like lately she seems to be emailing me at the worst possible times...
On a good point I am to go this saturday to see if I am O'ing and then start IUI's next week if they see a mature egg... I am hoping that it works the first time round...
Just wanted to get some of this off my chest... I am off to my therapist tomorrow and I think lots will be covered there...
Thanks for listening...

So sorry. People do not get it. That's a fact. You can explain it hundred ways, you can set boundaries and still they do not get it.
Just had an announcement here at work that another colleague is pregnant. That's 18 babies in 3 years (with an office of 58 staff). People like to tell me this repeatedly in case I didn't get it the first seven hundred times.
I coped with it fine, kinda use to it, until someone decided to tell me that I better not wait because if I leave it too late I might have fertility issues. This started a debate on how 'selfish' some women are for putting off having a baby.
I don't feel I should have to tell them my personal business. But I did very clearly state that you don't have to be in your late 30's to have fertility issues, and that not everyone has the choice on what age that get to conceive. Not everyones as fortunate as they have been.
Sorry to hijack your thread Catwoman but just wanted to let you know you ain't alone & I hear ya Cyster!!!!
People can be such jerks. I feel like saying; I may have a fertility problem but at least I don't have an a-hole problem.
I am doing a bit better today... I had a meet up last night with a few other women with PCOS that I have met through these boards, so that helped... Tonight I go to my therapist, so hopefully I'll be even better tomorrow... Also posting the original message seemed to help a bit too to get it off my chest...

I know how you feel, I am at work right now with 3 expectant mums who are showing, one has just told me she is pregnant, I am of course so happy for them all but I am also jealous wondering if it will ever be me...
My therapy session went well... It generally does, some weeks are more tough than others... But he means well by everything he says... I know a few times he has mentioned some upsetting things and said he was only telling me to give the other side of trying to become pregnant...
He has been totally awesome through everything for me... I even metioned a few sessions ago that we are interested in the 3D ultrasound, but it is expensive... He said he'd pay for it, but we'll see when the time comes, not that I don;t believe him, but we'll see...
Thanks again ladies for your support...
