Hi Girls!

This is my first time posting in this thread. A bit about me, I have been off BCP since Jan 08, had 4 AF's, then nothing for 8 months, and in that time was diagnosed with PCOS. DH and I were not actively TTC, but we also weren't trying to prevent anything from happening either. To cut to the chase, our FS wants us to try IUI to start with.

Most of our family know what's going on and what we have been through and what we face. Today however, when speaking to my brother (who i work with) about starting work late during the IUI cycles, he said I would be in a better position to ask for time off if I were up to date with my budget, and perhaps should look at that first before speaking to my boss. I said to him that that I would go regardless and asked if he knew what i meant. He said no. He then proceeded to tell me that when it comes time for him and his fiance to have children that they might just do IUI too cos its easier, and could they could have designer babies that way. I was totally gobsmacked! I really dont want to talk to him about what we are going through anymore. His attitude today has really been an eye opener!

Do you think I am overreacting??? Am I taking what he said the wrong way?

Thanks for taking the time to read my (long) post. Any thoughts on how to deal with such issues would be greatly appreciated.
