Irony? Salt in a wound?

In the last year, I've helped friends get their hands on Plan B four times because they're fertile enough that forgetting to take the pill once means the risk of pregnancy. We've been TTC since a few months after our relationship officially started (friends for a couple years before, realized we'd been in love and were pretty much in a relationship). It's just ironic, I think, that the my friends run to to make sure they don't have babies is...me. The one infertile one. See, starting as a teen I EDUCATED myself on EVERYTHING, even things I don't agree with (abortion), so that I would know what's what. I'm the one among my friends who can tell you the difference between different IUDs and how Yasmine is different than Ortho Tri-Cyclen.

So I'm the go-to person to prevent unplanned pregnancies and expected to sympathize when someone forgets a pill or three and fears what to do since she and boyfriend just had condomless sex, where can she get Plan B at 2am. I make the calls to find a pharmacy open that has it.

Me. The one who would cry if I got a pregnancy to term, who hopes with al my heart that the next HPT will be positive. I love my friends, so I do it and don't say anything about how sad it makes me feel when I'd give almost anything to be in the position of fertile.

Know what? I now keep two packs of Plan B on hand in case no pharmacy has it and one of my friends needs it. The irony, eh?
 
I am the same way and know exactly how you feel. I've help so many times for other people and helped them out to prevent pregnancy...

and all I want is a baby.

:hugs:
 
not to be taken the wrong way but... dun dun dun... KARMA? spooooky! x x x x its not nice having to try i know! especially when all over the news papers it says.. boy father at 13 and they only did it once? makes you feel like poo! x x x
 
Heh, I'm related to the Duggars, and we all know how easily they pop them out.

Hearing about kids like that 13yo makes me think about all the kids having kids in the US that my tax dollars are paying to support.

Sorry you are feeling so down :( Sending you massive hugs :hugs: you are a great friend to help them out like that but honestly I would maybe talk to them about it...let them know how it makes you feel when they arent being responsible while you are trying to have a baby without any luck. Its not fair to you to have to feel like this. Again, sending you hugs...Im thinking about you. xx

I don't get it.. as in don't get how that applies to this thread..

God I hate the word 'Karma'.

I agree. I dont get how it applies to this thread at all.

Me either...?

I read it earlier and thought I was missing something, but I think its just a really really really insensitive comment, god I can't wait for there to be more rules regarding posting in here!

If I am reading it right I think it is more than insensitive. Think if nothing else it has shown that needing a certain number of posts before being able to post in here isn't going to work.
 
I just don't get what she is trying to say with that comment?

I read it that she was saying there was some 'karma' link with her getting the morning after pill for people and her not being able to have a baby of her own. Hopefully I am just reading it wrong though.
 
Mmm that's how i read it, but i thought surely not?
 
I've read a few by her in particular! Second infertility too when JASMAK is asking if anyone was still there. What is up with that?!
 
Hmm, she is the same one who told JakMak to "flip a coin". Some people just don't think before they post.
 
Christ i just read some of her other post, is she trying to upset people or does she just not think? Would Wobbles be able to stop her posting in LTTTC?
 
i dont no.. not nice to read tho :( i just hope she was having a bad day and shes sorry for it all..
 
Based purely on this thread it could be related to the fact that Aria has had a temporary ban on her account for her insensitive comments towards others in other areas of the forum. I haven't seen anything from her in other threads though x
