I've gotten this one recently:

"Maybe you were put on this earth to adopt, there are children out there for you."

And from my mom, which hurt the most without her even knowing it.

"I got pregnant with you the 1st time your father and I tried. I always thought about donating my eggs, wish I would have known what I know now. "

My mom is close-minded to the whole fertility process. Yes, she's gone with me to a few appointments and sat with me during our 2nd IUI-but doesn't comprehend what I tell her. I don't have egg issues, I've told her over and over. She doesn't do any research and if I tell her something and bring it up again later she asks "what's that", even with me going over and over it with her. It frustrates me!

Also another thing that bugs me is my mom won't even bring it up. Not even so much as ask how I'm doing/feeling. When I speak of anything to do with infertility she is quiet. I told her last week our next step was IVF-mum was the word in her response.

My mom has also said:

"Maybe it's not meant to be"
