Don't Say
* "I know you're going to get pregnant soon!" Actually, you don't.
* "That's awful. You must be so depressed" It's presumptuous to assume you know how someone else feels. And a person in crisis doesn't need to be reminded of her pain.
* "My husband just looks at me and I get pregnant!" Talk about bragging-and rubbing salt in the wound.
Do Say
* "I'm so sorry you're going through this. I wish I could help"
* "I'd love to hear what is happening if you feel comfortable talking about it"
* "Call me anytime you need to vent"
Sisely's Story so far:
Sissi and husband Dave got married July 2006 and were already TTC when they got married. Almost two years later still nothing.
My period is really strange. It only comes around once every 4 months, ever since it started, and without any kind of birth control or medications.
September 2006 I finally went to my first GYN appt and got put on birth control to try to regulate it. It was regulated while I was on it, but when I got off it, it went back to being irregular. I was suppose to go back later and start my Clomid, but things took a turn and we ended up moving to South Carolina, losing our insurance.
So here we are almost 2 years later, no insurance, and no baby. It's really frustrating and hard to see pregnant people about because it's something I really look forward to and something I can't have.
