Why do people think it's ok?

[Lucia]

This is one of the reasons why I haven't told many people that I am doing IVF!

To avoid the inevitable, silly questions that someone always manages to blert out - and there is always someone.

At the moment I seems to be going through a stage of people talking to me like it is all I am meant to do - have a baby! All they seem to talk about is who has had a baby recently and who is pregnant and then turn to me and say "So when are you going to, you are running out of time you know, what are you doing about it?"

What can you say?? Fair enough they don't know whats going on and I am glad they don't because what would the questions be like if they did? It just makes it even harder - its like digging the knife in when that is exactly what you are trying to do!!

I have also found that there is one or two people I regret telling - they now avoid me and give me the "Old you poor thing" look! I learnt a big lessons from that one!!!!
