What I hate hearing are all the stories about people who adopted... and then found themselves pregnant 6 months later. As though adoption is a magic cure for infertility.

Well... I've got friends who adopted, and nearly three years later still aren't pregnant - obviously they are doing something wrong!

And then when people start on about how IVF is playing God, is morally wrong, etc, etc... So is it wrong for us to want our own child? Is it wrong for us to freeze embryos so we (hopefully) don't have to do further stim cycles - which cost a heck of a lot more than a FET?

But I have to agree with everyone else - the "just relax, it will happen" line is the single worst thing for making my blood boil!

As though simply relaxing is going to correct the fact that I have 5 times the amount of insulin running around my body as a normal person. Relaxing is going to do what all the drugs, herbs and acupuncture couldn't do and magically make me ovulate. And relaxing is going to fix the fact that DH has a thumping great varicocele cooking his testicles and somehow manage to make him produce sperm that can actually swim as far as the egg... then correct the fact that I have a 7 day luteal phase if by some miracle I can ovulate... yeah, right!
