Quick Reference

Although infertility is not life-threatening (most times), it is a serious medical condition especially when coupled with other ailments.  I know you may mean well...or may not even realize how harmful your comment may be to me. There are some key things that you should never say to someone battling infertility. Here are a few I'm particularly sensitive about: 

*You're so young... you have plenty of time! 

 

*Just relax... it takes time.

 

*Enjoy your sleep

 

*if you want a child take mines.

 

Instead of saying the above things, please say this: 

*You will be a great mom one day.

 

*I'm praying for you.

 

*I'm here if you need me. ~This one is especially dear to my heart because some days I may just need someone to be silent with, other times I may need someone to vent to, and most days I just like the fact your are there as a distraction from my baby mania.
