OMG! Taffy, that didn't seriously happen, did it? What am I saying?! Of course it did! My jaw literally dropped when I read that - I think that's even worse than some of the idiotic things that have been sent to me.
I've mostly got the "just relax" comments beaten out of my family.
DH's family, not so much. But they've both been told repeatedly that our fertility problems really are quite significant and no amount of relaxing, holidays or adopting children is going to allow us to conceive naturally.
The financial situation one... yup, will have to work that in there as well. Thanks, BG.
Jennifer - I think that them never bringing up IVF again would be far from the worst thing that could happen... would be more like the best - freedom from stress, awkward questions, embarassing moments in front of others...
I've had a friend suggest that Jewish mourning customs be used to adapt, I've been given a great explanation of how they work, pulled from the blog of a friend of a friend - absolutely brilliant.
