I went ton vacation to the poconos to my sisters house with my boyfriend and his kids. I am ttc and I am taking metaformin and prenatal. On one of the night we were playing cards and they strated to make jokes on each other and they decided that it was funny to call me a man because I have testostorone levels because of pcos. They have 3 kids and I and very sensitive when it comes to my infertility. I have been ttc for a while now and it has been very hard on my emotionally and it hurt me sooo bad that they can sit there and joke about it like it was really funny that I have PCOS. I cried so hard that i couldn't breath and she also told her friend I have male hormones so that everyone and join in the fun. While i was crying she told me that I was acting very dumb and that I am bugging out because my meds are making my emotion go out of wack... She has nerves to say I have no reason to cry. I so upset they have no idea what I go through to tell me I'm just tooo sensitive about the situation

I'm sorry for you sisters insensitivity. I've found out the hard way that not everyone needs to 'know' about my so called 'afflictions', even some that are in my family. Some people just don't understand certain things and take things for granted (like being able to concieve and have a normal pg) I would be honest and upfront with (but not mean) and tell her that although she may 'feel' you blew things out of proportion, you don't appreciate being the brunt of her jokes. What you are going through is not easy and when you confided in her with your diagnoses you expected a little understanding not humiliation. Tell her you expected her to be your confidant not a blabber mouth. Let her now that its not your hormones that have your 'emotions' in an upproar, it's the comment she made. good luck hun
I am sorry that your sister had to put you through all that! Sometimes family will hurt you far worse than any stranger. Have you tried talking to them about PCOS effects you and it's not just because of the hormones?
I don't think she understand what I do through and if she really cares shre did all of this joking in front of my boyfriend and I was so hurt and angry my bf didn't even comfort me at the time I felt so alone no one in my family understands what I have to go through in order to stay sane I think about this all the time there is never a day i don't think about it and people with kids already just don't know the pain and I get mad that I want to brake something or someone I dont need to be reminded I am broken when I am not thinking about it. I feel like closing my self in.

I really don't know what else to say except, that you are very welcome here. All of us girls have gone through what you are going through right now. It was the best decision of my life to join this community. I have never looked back.
I am here anytime you ever need to talk. I will always be here for you.
(HUGS) I am so sorry that they were so mean to you. As I get older, I am realizing that my happiness and feelings need to be put before anyone elses. Especially when it comes to TTC. I have zero tolerance for comments and negativity and try to surround myself with people who will be supportive. If I were you I would limit the time I spend with these people (family or not) because if they are hurting you emotionally, they are not helping or aiding in your journey. Unfortunately family can sometimes be the worst!

Tacha, I know it's hard to go through the things that we do and that ppl can say mean and hateful things, but don't lose sight of the fact that there is help out there. I got married at 19 (everyone assume i was pg ..NOT the case) Who would've guess we would have struggled with infertility for 10 years. The one thing about my family is that they have been 100% supportive of me, especially my sister. She truly is my confidant. She was there thru all my ups and downs. She was happy each time i announced ' I'm pregnant' and she was there when i called to tell her i had miscarried. When i felt like i was drowning in sorrow, she held my head up so i can breathe. You will find someone to confide in , I promise you. And maybe you boyfriend didn't know how to react to her saying that so he did nothing. My Dh always says that the reason we are so close (our family) is because we are like he say "latinos" he's caucasion, and i said no, it's not. we are close just because we are. I'm proud of my roots. I don't think i would haveever had my family without the help of my family and believing in God and having a good Dr. I now have 2 1//2 year old twins, after 10 yrs of trying and 4 m/c's. don't lose hope !
~hugs~ Sending hugs your way, and baby-dust.
Some people just don't realise that there are some things you just don't joke about, things that are too painful, and too cruel. Pregnancy is one of those things, especially when TTC.
Wishing you the best.

Thanks for trying to keep my head up cysters because my sister isn't trying too. I am going through soo much in my house hold rasing my bf kids, dealing with his baby mamma dramma,ttc, school and just plain old life that I am over welmed with so much stress that I feel like I'm about to brake down. I need time away from this family just a lil to get my thoughts together. I am beginging to regret ttc. I am just sooo sad with my life right now and I am slowing slippling into deep depresion. im gald I can talk to your girls any time I reallllly need to let my emotions out to poeple who will understand me.

Tacha, If your not ready to try for a baby yet then your not ready. You sound like you need to come up for some air. Nobody will take care of you but yourself. Things sound pretty complicated for you. Is there any peer groups or counselors you can talk to at school, or pastor/preacher at your church, or maybe your Dr. ? Try and work on 1 or 2 things at a time, the rest will fall into place
i don't really have anyone to talk to i wantto have babies I just need to be stress free because no matter what I do or say these promlems wont go away....so what do I do stop my dreams of beiing a mommy?

Your sister seems very heartless, and un-supportive. My family says ignorant things to me sometimes regrading PCOS, but I know, the majority of the time they are not doing it to be hurtful. I guess you just have to ignore some people.

I am so sorry. This is NOT a funny matter.
Dont apologize for being sensitive! We all are about this!
Tell them how you feel!
this is NOT a funny matter!
I and no one else here is laughing!
(((((((HUGGGS)))))
