I am tired of ...
being asked when we are planning to have another baby. It seems to have started about 6 months ago and really picked up speed lately. I was asked 3x this week alone...
And, I would have been 13 weeks this weekend, and it's when we would have shared our happy news

Re: I am tired of ...
I think I may have been guilty of this before I had any fertility issues and it is something that I WILL NEVER ask another women again...
It drives me crazy and my DS is almost 3 so we get it ALL THE TIME....
The best part is when I tell someone that we have been trying for 2 years or that we just had a loss, then I feel bad for making them feel awkward so I usually just brush it off. Only problem with that is that they continue asking everytime I see them....
I feel your pain

Maybe I am a b**ch but I dont feel bad at all making them feel awkward. I dont open up to the random strangers or acquaintances who ask me, but when certain friends have asked me more recently I ended up telling them about my mc and when I did I hoped it would make them feel awkward and that they would think a little bit before asking someone else in the future. With the holidays this week I am about to see a lot of people I havent seen in a while and am expecting a lot of questions about #2

I hear you. We don't have children yet but I do get the relatives who used to ask and I'd usually give a rude response that when we announce something they'll know!! But I feel that after being married 2 years and people knowing we love kids, they probably figure something is up. But it can be painful, particularly during happy holidays.

We went to two dinners with lots of people and I wasn't asked once which was a pleasant surprise.
