Good morning ladies. How's everyone doing? Nothing exciting to report here. I am having slightly sore breasts and some cramping. Nothing different than last cycle, but I am only 6 dpo today, so. This TWW is just crawwwwling by.
I was so irritated this weekend with a friend of mine and I didn't say anything because I know she wasn't saying it to be malicious but it still bothered me.
I was talking to her about my treatments and explaining when I should know this cycle. I joked as I have before that it was either going to be a really great or kind of miserable Christmas, as I'll find out right before/on Christmas if we succeeded this cycle.
She gave me the whole "it doesn't have to be miserable, just because you didn't conceive" speech. I said, "Four years....FOUR years I've been trying for another child. FOUR." Then, "you have a beautiful daughter and a husband who loves you, blah, blah, blah." I know this, I do. It's not lost on me. I know people who try as long as I have for their first. But it has been a very very long time. And this is kind of my last shot, due to my age and financial limitations.
She only wanted one child and she has one so I guess she can't understand how hard it is to have a hole in your heart that can only be filled by another child. It just hurt my feelings.
