FYI

Here is an article on infertility etiquette:

There are several women in my ward who need to read this! I would love to make a blanket announcement to the RS and say:

"I don't want advice. I don't want to be told the standard 'spiritual' answers. Don't ask me if I have prayed about it. That is none of your business, and I already have a mother - thank you. I don't want to discuss it! This is my experience and choices that my husband and I make are choices for us alone. Input from others is not required or even wanted. You have not walked in my shoes, since you have children. So please quit telling me how to live my life or feel the need to tell me what I should do. Please leave the elephant in the room alone. The last thing I need is to constantly be reminded of this. If anything, I want to forget whenever possible. I get plenty of reminders daily without help. I want to feel 'normal', especially when I am at church. Kapish?"

And thank you for letting me vent.
