Another assinine comment

So my SIL (the one who was "diasppointed" in me because I was having some wine at a wedding a few weeks ago :rollseyes:) just called. After asking how things were going with us she said...to me, a 39-year-old intelligent woman....."Oh maybe you just need to relax..." I said "Well, I relaxed for 3 years so far and since I do have a hormonal issue and am 39, I really can't 'just relax' any longer".

I was friggin flabbergasted that she would say this.......ummmm yeah it's just because I am not relaxed that my FSH is 14.7.... ok lady...Chat Icon

Re: Another assinine comment

Sorry Kara....that statement annoys me to no end. What does "relax" even mean ??? Does it mean read a book and take a nap every day ? Does it mean, go for a stroll and admire nature ?? Or are they really saying...."Don't do anything leave everything up to chance ?" Would they say "just relax" if we had a more "acceptable disease" like diabetes ? I wonder if we would be instructed not to take our insulin or not make our doctor appointments if that was the case ?

Sorry Kara, but this gets me !!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I also hate the question "How are you two making out with everything?". Umm you are either pregnant or not pregnant ...there is no in between. Chat Icon

Sorry she said those things to you. Did you tell DH? Maybe he can speak to her about it?

Unfortunatley, some people just don't have a clue how to act with others. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Another assinine comment

Thanks ladies.... this just ****** me off so bad. No I did not tell Bill about her. He's so stressed at work the last thing I need is to bother him with her dumb comments, although I know he would completely agree with me about her. I pretty much put her in her place so....fortunately I have no problem speaking my mind, lol! I think she realized what a dumb comment it was.

And Michelle, yeah I wonder ...hmmm so I should just ignore my problems?? Yeah tell that to a diabetic..

And LisaW can you fm me that file??????

Chat Icon What a stupid thing to say! I love when I'm told to relax or told " whatever is meant to be will be" oh go @#!* yourself! Easy for you to say, I always think. Sometimes I get told the story, you know, how someboby's sister's friend's aunt took a break from trying and went off of their medications and BAM! they got pregnant! I guess they are trying to help, but sometimes I just want to say "SHUT UP!"Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

It's so funny...I just had an aunt say that to me last week. Yah...thank you, I just spent six months shooting myself up like a druggie, but if I just relaxed it would have happened.

Re: Another assinine comment

I think ppl that dont experience what some of us go through might really just not know what to say.
I know its so frustrating and I hate when ppl used to say that to me all the time when I had been trying for so long with my last one.
But I dont think its said maliciously so you just have to bite your tounge and let it go..
Again, they just dont understand.

Mmmmm bite my tongue? No, not me... I will educate them if they make a remark like that out of ignorance before I will bite my tongue.

I didn't get nasty or pissy, but I did point out that with hormonal imbalances that is just a stupid thing to say.

Funny thing is, Dh's brother and wife tried for 4 years....adopted a boy....tried for 2 more years....adopted a girl...and when they were all done...4 years later...yes got pregnant on their own with a girl.

I Just never wasted my time trying to educate ppl who probably already know that obviously Im not 25 and dont have time to sit back and relax but are just trying to comfort me ( by saying something kinda dumb)
