So, I’ll admit it. I put up a somewhat vague status update on facebook if you don’t know that Mr. W and I are going through treatments. It said: “Dawn has to give herself a shot this weekend and is actually pretty nervous about it.” The people that know what is happening offered support. My super fertile SIL emailed me and asked if everything was okay. I told her that I just had a simple procedure I had to prep for and she responded with this:
Good luck! I was worried you might be getting fertility treatments and end up being an octomom!
Are you fucking kidding me? Shut your stupid fertile mouth. I am on the verge of crying because I am so angry. This is the bitch that puts the pictures of my nephew on the weight loss blog for attention. Yes, N. my goal is to have eight children. Seriously? I just want one. Fuck off.
Rant over. Sorry for the obscenities.

Lot's of people think it's funny to joke around with the word 'octomom'. I got that comment from a very good friend, but fortunately it was in real life and I am quite animated, so now she knows never to joke with that again.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry about your SIL being so insensitive:(
Ugh, don't you love how the media has made people even MORE ignorant about IF because of their love affair with Octomom? As if we didn't have people saying enough stupid stuff to us to begin with, now we get even more of it.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry your SIL was so insensitive. (((hugs)))
OMG. That's just ridiculous. It's just HILARIOUS to make jokes like that. HA HA. I think I would have had to come back with something like "yeah, actually, I'm hoping to surpass her and be Nonamom!!" I'm so sorry. Blech.
