Where is this water?

 Is there something in the water? A common question I’ve been hearing all my pregnant friends/family ask each other. And then today I read an article about how the celebrities are asking the same thing, is there something in the water? Well I have a question. Where the heck can I get some of this water?
I did have something very sweet happen the other day. One of my closest friends said she had been doing research on how to talk to someone who is going through what I am, problems conceiving. She said she was worried that she would say the wrong thing. She said that if she ever said anything that hurt my feelings or upset me to let me know. Now, I’ve wanted to have a child for a few years now and in that time not one person has ever said that to me. Not one person has ever said they have been looking up ways to help me cope. This was probably the sweetest thing I’ve heard in a long time. I don’t ask for attention or for anyone’s pity, but someone wanting to help me and make me feel comfortable, well let’s just say my heart was touched.

  5. there were a ton of pregnancy announcements at my old job and people joked about the water ALL the time. Looking back I am so glad that I didn't work there after we got our IF diagnosis - it would have been SO hard to deal with.

    It means so much to have a supportive friend. Will you give her an extra big hug for the rest of us? :)
