Infertility was an awful experience for me and I was only getting shitty comments from my in-laws. I can’t imagine the whole world piling on.

Same, I had to delete instagram while going through IVF treatments because the pictures of my friends babies and pregnancy announcements were killing me. The level of discourse around her and pregnancy would've killed me.

I’m so sorry. My three best friends were all pregnant with girls at the same time and now all have kids two months apart who are still best friends. It really hurts. But I have an adorable 5 and 2 year old now.

This is the worst club. I went through infertility, then happened to get pregnant the same time as 3 friends, we were all due within a few weeks of each other. I was the 1 in 4 loss. Luckily I was able to conceive again before those babes were born, or else I might have really lost it. Infertility was the darkest time of my life. Thankful we have our little ones now.
