Amongst the things she said to me today: -

"My sister got a dog. That's all it took for her to get pregnant." (because that will solve everything won't it?)

"In future, why don't you keep it between you and your husband? Sometimes it's just best not to talk about it at all" (erm, I wasn't even talking to her? I was talking to the person that sits next to me)

"If you don't ovulate then why do you get periods? You're wrong, there." (Hmm, because the fertility expert told me that my body gears up to ovulate, hence the multiple opks that are positive, and then finally gives up, meaning it's done everything but release an egg and so eventually the estrogen balance changes and my body sheds its womb lining - a period, in essence!)

"Lets be honest, you haven't been trying that long have you? After all, it took my sister 8 years." (Her sister who was separated from her husband for three of those eight years, yes?)

"You change how long you've been trying to suit you. How long IS it exactly?" (because, y'know, the fact that I was off the pill, having regular sex and STILL not getting pregnant for four years means nothing, doesn't it? Because I'm doing it all for attention, aren't I? Because over two years of active, rigorous trying as well as one twin miscarriage isn't enough, is it?)

"I do know what waiting feels like. It took me four months to get pregnant with Jack." (four months. Oh God bless you, that's so LONG!)

Sometimes, people should really just shut the fuck up.

CurlySue I am sorry that you have to even be near to someone so terrible.

Ditto! I can't believe she would say those things. How inconsiderate and rude! Sorry you have to deal with such ignorant people... xx

omg.....how could anyone be so rude ! She either doesnt have kids or she fell straight away. What age is this woman? Grrrrrrr

What I want to know is ......








How the bloody hell have you not smacked her one yet?!? Honestly hon, you muct have the self control of a ninja!

Totally agree with Farie, you have been very restrained! Perhaps think up some smart put down for next time she comes up with one of her little gems. I wish I could help but I'm useless with that sort of thing. We're virtual slapping her if that helps.

i would have smacked her one !!

Cheeky Bitch!!! How dare she..... I'll bloody tw@t her one myself for you! xxx

What a twat! Virtual kicking her arse for you! There are some people out there who don't have the ability to empathise. How she got to managing people is a mystery. Try not to let her get into your head sweetie. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

What a stupid witch, very patient of you not to have booted her up the arse by now!

Stupid people should not be allowed to speak! sorry you are having to work with such an idiot
