I wish I never told anyone at work
Hey ladies,
I first thought it would be better for me emotionally to tell people what I was going through...in an effort to de-stigmatize infertility in my own circle and try and create a place where I could get sympathy when I needed it. Now I realize how STUPID people really are and wish I had never said a word. I am sick of people always asking me "are you pregnant yet" or worse, coming out with heinously crass remarks like "how's the baby-making thing going" like I get some kind of sick enjoyment from the whole process.
Should I lie and tell everyone we decided not to do this anymore just to get my privacy back? They aren't helping my emotional state anyway...only making things more awkward and unbearable.
