Yesterday was my birthday...

Yesterday, I turned 27. At lunch, one of my coworkers asked me how old I was so I told her. And she went on to say, "27 was a hard year for me. My mom kept hassling and reminding me that my biological clock was ticking and I knew I was almost 30 so I was running out of time to have kids. Does your mom give you a hard way to go over your biological clock?"

I just smiled and said no. But I wanted to cry. I wanted to tell her that no, she doesn't give me a hard way to go since she knows I had a miscarriage 5 months ago and that we've been trying ever since.

What the heck is wrong with people? Hoe can anyone think that is appropriate small talk?
