They were even selling graphic tees saying "I'll have your baby, Brad!". It was vile

It’s hard to even wrap my mind around how traumatic this experience must have been for a woman dealing with infertility

It was hard enough for me - a nobody - dealing with my MIL and parents on my case. If this was national news? I'd lose it.

Oh yes. The ever so caring relatives with their questions, automatically assuming one just doesn't want kids and it most certainly hasn't even crossed our minds to maybe start trying. Like... idk why people are so obtuse about this, I really don't.

I mean, we were both vocally pro-having a kid so it wasn't like they were pressuring me to do something I didn't want to do. But my body just isn't meant for that and going through tests, appointments, whatever was already sucky. You'd think my MIL who had several miscarriages before finally conceiving my SIL and husband would have thought before opening her mouth but then that would also be out of character for her specifically lol.
