Infertility and the Holidays

Stacy

I just need a safe place to rant! My DH and I have been trying to conceive for almost four years. We just celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary this week. Last Christmas we took a huge leap in our infertility journey and told our families that we were having issues and were going to see a specialist in 2017. Not even two months later my sister in law comes over to my house for dinner with her boyfriend and says they are pregnant and weren’t trying! She then had her baby at 21 weeks because she wasn’t taking care of her self and the baby stopped growing! The baby weighed 1 pound and 4 ounces he spent over 3 months in the NICU! My DH husband and I were there every step of the way! Fast forward to thanksgiving she purposely has my DH mom change the day for dinner from Thanksgiving to the day after knowing that my DH would have to work. Now Christmas is this week and I am in the middle of the fifth <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">fertility treatment</a> of the year (super emotional I am doing letrozole, the ovidrel shot, and 400 mg of progesterone). She is trying to get all the Christmas plans changed because they don’t work for her even though she doesn’t work and has nothing else going on! I am so frustrated how can someone be fo hostile and cold when my DH and I were there for her when she didn’t know if her baby would live because of her own mistreatment of her body! Advice on what to do please!
