You know you are struggling with infertility when you call your little sister on the phone to see if she wants to come over and swim this afternoon and she tells you she is probably going to pass on the invitation because she doesn't feel good and has a headache.... and after only that tiny bit of information, you start freaking out that she is pregnant! Ha!

Hahaha!!!! I hear ya on that one! :) My sis has two little boys and both pregnancy announcements were so hard for me at first! Ah, I dread the next one!

I know!! I was convinced one of my friends was pregnant because she missed something because she didn't feel well...turns out she just didn't feel well. :) We're funny!

Totally guilty of these thoughts all the time!

Oh, that is soooo tough! I would have the same reaction to hearing those symptoms...

I wish our thoughts didn't go there, but I am right there with you. I think it is self preservation in some ways. We are trying to steel ourselves up for the next announcement. It is just so hard when they come out of nowhere.

Ha Ha! Very funny and so true! I applaud your ability to find humor in the situation.

And yes, feel free to comment on my adoptive parent blog anytime you'd like. I'm happy to know you visited :)
