Support Instead of Sympathy

I'm fairly new to Glow, but absolutely love it! My husband and I have been TTC for 3 years. We've recently decided to enlist the help of an infertility specialist to just make sure there's nothing abnormal. When I told some close friends about this, they're responses were "Awwww...". As if they feel sorry for us. How about a little support, words of encouragement?? I know that's it's a weird subject, but I wasn't looking for sympathy. Anyone else feel the same way?
