A little venting

Ni

I hope it’s okay to do some venting on here! Im feeling a little frustrated and I just need to get it out lol. We’ve told close friends and family about our journey, and while I’m so so grateful for them, boy am I tired of people telling us how “cool” it is that we “get to be so involved in the process” or that we somehow have “extra” control over our situation. I’m sorry but I just can’t relate to how cool it is to go through infertility for 3 years and put my body through so much with ivf. And I damn sure don’t feel in control of what’s happening to me. I get that they are trying their best to be supportive and optimistic, but I’d honestly sometimes rather people just don’t say anything at all. Hopefully that doesn’t sound too mean lol. What “supportive” statements get under your skin? Do you tell people when something they say isn’t all that supportive?
