I was talking with my mother about my sisters very close friends that
are TTC 3 years + each, and one's accepted it and found some sort of
peace, and the other is still very hurt, and finds it hard be around
pregnant people (like my sister atm), which I can understand, and mum
starts saying that they're too stresed and obsessed to fall pregnant
etc. It made me so mad, she thinks that all you have to do is go on a
holiday, or relax, etc.
She wont accept that I might know a bit more than her about that.
She says, "we'll just have to agree to disagree" and that she's old
enough to have seen it too many times.
I said, "with 1 in 5 couples having difficulty, it's not surprising
that some do fall pregnant when they're on holiday, or after signing
up for adoption, but it's only a coincidence". But she says that's
crap. And wont believe me. She takes their driven type A natures as
further proof. I know a lot of laid back ladies that are having so
much trouble, and it's got nothing to do with how much they try to
relax.
I was just left so angry. I couldn't wait to finish the phone call.
Anyway, thanks for letting me vent. It sure is quiet in here.
Hugs to all,
Jade.
