• On infertility:

Not all of us dealing with infertility are incapable of hearing about, celebrating and enjoying others' pregnancies. I completely understand women who are having difficulty, but pay attention to the woman before deciding to keep her out of the loop.

I'm tired of having ultrasound pictures hidden from me as I walk into a room. I just learned of a faraway relation's pregnancy three days after the birth of her child because people "couldn't bear" to tell me she was pregnant.

What a crock. I love kids. I don't begrudge anyone the joy of having them, anticipating them, celebrating them. People, if you're close enough to know a person is having fertility issues, you're close enough to ask whether they wish to be involved with baby issues.
