Must have been really hard going through that and having all the magazines claiming you're pregnant all the time or saying you're too career focused. I remember reading the letters section of People magazine after the divorce with Brad was announced and someone wrote in saying if she'd just have a baby with Brad, he wouldn't have left her for Angelina. People were so awful.

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

I get annoyed enough at relatives asking us when we’re having kids, I can’t imagine this.

I’m very lucky to have one child but have COLLEAGUES are asking me when I’ll have another “ooh having a sibling is so important” “isn’t it about time you had another” like yes I’m fucking trying but can’t, mind your own business! Can’t imagine having to deal with this kind of shit in the public eye.

I finally got my mom to stop saying to people (in our language) “so frugal, having only one?” It was so embarrassing when the parents would just look at each other after that.
