She is facing a lot of backlash from the article from the infertility community on her Facebook page (the like page of STFU Parents, not her personal one..it's a good thing I only found this article now and not when it was posted on Tuesday or I would have given an ear full myself but the waves have settled since so not gonna bother re-igniting that war) and rightfully so.

Good luck in whatever you choose to do! Have you found a job for the time being?
Gosh, your travelling sounds terrible, I think BA tend to try and make themselves look really good, but often they're pretty rubbish! Particularly when compared with Emirates and Qatar Airlines
It would be lovely to travel the world... oh to be rich, eh?!
We spent 3 days in Bangkok and 7 days in Hua Hin (on the coast). Both were really amazing! Bangkok is really busy, vibrant and exciting... where Hua Hin is very rural and laid back.
The hotel we stayed in was amazing, it's like an eco-hotel and they're really well known worldwide...

Job wise, I haven't looked yet
I think that my previous work place would be happy to have me come back and help out after uni, so probably just work there again. It's reception work, so not really degree related but I really enjoy it. I've been really lucky so far work wise, I tend to get the position I'm interviewed for so I'm not to concerned at the moment. I'm looking forward to working and earning money after this last semester. I really want to save up a baby fund (£2500) by the time I'm in my third trimester. It'd be nice to have everything bought and ready for bubs and still have a nice little nest egg!The hotel link you posted looks amazing...so chilled! I'd love to conceive on holiday, it was my dream to conceive on honeymoon but hubs wasn't sure whether we should TTC so soon after marriage. Typical! A month later and we'd begun TTC anyway

Are you kidding me??? Good on you for saying that. That is the rudest thing I've heard in a long time, coupled with a complete lack of empathy. I guess they mean well but BOY is it hard to remember that in the moment!

That's now episode #5 Criminal Minds does with the whole "she's infertile and/or lost a child so she goes on a kidnapping and killing spree"...really Hollywood, because we're not demonized enough? I love the show but those episodes kill me.
So this is my first round on Femara...1st IUI...now in the 2ww with lovely progesterone suppositories that I am pretty sure gave me a yeast infection. I am only 4dpiui. I have cramps off and on, totally feels like period cramps. Oh and I am crazy moody! I am giving my poor dog dirty looks. Anyone else finding this tough?

Been ttc for over a year!!! Been without bc for almost six years. I'm sick of waiting, everyone keeps saying it'll happen when the time is right. Well I'm ready and think the timing is perfect!!! I'm so sick of hearing about all my friends getting preggers for the first time(of course after trying for only a couple of months, or not even trying at all) or on their secon, third, or even fourth!!! How is it so easy for them and I have to struggle for it??? Just doesn't seem fair. Feels like I could just break down any day....... Nice to know there are other people out there waiting "for the right timing" I don't know what I would do if I wouldn't of found this site. It helps to know there is still hope out there for all of us!!!

Wow! What a horrible thing for her to say! I don't know what I would do if a "friend" said that to me. I think after 5 minutes of telling her off and making her feel like a piece of crap, I would never want to speak to her again. Some people are so ignorant! I congratulate you for your self-control in that situation! I wish you lots of luck!

I'm just so bitter. I don't want to be like this. I was alright the two times this week that I held and played with a baby. They were both beautiful, and they were both teenage accidents. Both have mothers that make everyone else watch their babies so they can go off and hang out with friends and sleep with more guys. One smelled terribly of cigarette smoke and the other didn't even have basic things like wipes or a change of clothes packed in the diaper bag. It made me so sad, but I held it together.
But not tonight. I lost my sh*t. My husband told me (cautiously and gently) of another pregnancy announcement. He wanted me to hear it from him and not from someone at the wedding we are attending tomorrow. And I was okay hearing it. Well, not really. It was someone we least expected and it felt like a kick to the gut. But then he said it...he FINALLY said the words I have been waiting to hear "I feel like the world is against us. I feel so frustrated." That's right! He finally feels the same way I do! I have felt alone so far. But now I know I'm not. That's when I lost my sh*t. I had a panic attack. We go to the fertility doc soon and I am terrified of what we might find out. I am so scared about the possibility of not being able to have kids. I know it has only been a year and compared to many, it is not that long. But I also know of many people who are completely unable to conceive, so I know that is a possibility and it scares the crap outta me!
Eventually I was able to calm down after my husband told me "I promise you that we will have a baby someday. I can't promise that it will be cute, but we will have one." He never fails to make me laugh.
Sorry this was a bit long, but I just had to share it. Sometimes I feel so calm and optimistic about TTC, but then something happens and I lose it. It makes me feel like a bad person. I don't like being jealous and bitter, but sometimes I just can't help it. I really pray that all of us will finally get our turn!

I'm exactly the same hun, I try and keep myself focused on the end result - it WILL happen and we will have a baby, it's just taking its time!!
I felt so alone yesterday so I vented to my friend who listened (as much as I love my OH and how understanding he is there is only so many times I can hear 'we will have a LO' )
What really pissed me off is at the very moment I sat on the loo and AF came my other friend texted to tell me she is pregnant - what a way for the universe to punch me in the face eh?
I wouldn't mind but shes only been with him 5 minutes!!! Grrrr
