The sentences I hate the most in the world!!!
I know people mean well BUT don't you just hate it when you're told/asked the following sentences like a) you want to hear them b) you've not heard them a million times before c) they are ever really going to make you feel better...? :x
A few of my most hated sentences are.....
1) 'Relax and it will happen when you least expect it' - grrrr I had been relaxed and it's been so long now that I'm not even expecting it any more... so surely it should happen now?
2) ' Have you tried having more sex?' - Well, i hadn't been banking on an immaculate conception...
3) 'Just wanted to say our good news, we are pregnant and after only a month of trying' - Well, whoopee doo for you and your amazing ovaries...
4) 'so, when is it your turn wink wink?' - When indeed. Answers on a postcard please...
5) 'you fell pregnant before so everything is working as it should be. It will happen again' - mmm, really? the BFP that took me a year and a half to get, which ended in miscarriage and which hapened a year ago without a sniff of another BFP but hey, im not worried, cause you said it will happen again.....
6) 'Is your biological clock not ticking?' - no it's not ticking, it's banging. LOUDLY
The questions never get more original do they?

I don't know which one I hate the most, they are all soooooo annoying!! The second I even think i'm going to hear one of them I have to resist the urge of covering my ears, singing la-la-la and allow my brain to take me to a 'happy place'...
I keep getting that too. And then I think... yes, I was young when I started and with every minute i'm only getting older...

Oooh no, you don't want to have kids yet - put it off as long as you can!!
*scream*
Gypsy, I get this too!!! And is it just me, but is it the ones that have about a hundred kids that use this one? If its so bad, why didn't they just stop at one!!!
But i suppose it's to be expected, as it's probably the same person that said 'you don't want to get married, you want to stay single for as long as possible!!' when the engagement was announced! :roll:

LOL!!! Oh, I would have had them draw a picture and then pin it up on my wall everytime they come round to visit!
We've had 4 mc in 16 months & I hate
"At least you know you can pregnant"
or
"It obviously wasnt meant to be"
Grrrr

I'm tempted to get a white t-shirt and write the questions on the front followed by the answers on the back. May not be overly discreet, but it sure as hell beats having to repeat yourself!
Oooh, have you had the 'have you tried, NOT trying...?' (I got this one at the weekend). Like seriously, trying isn't going all that great for me so don't know how not trying is going to do it!! :roll:

We do get maybe you shouldnt try for a bit as well, give yourselfs a break!! Uhhh yea thanks for that!!
Tshirt sounds like a great idea LOL that would shut em up!! x
I understand what you're going through. I mean we didn't have any problems, but it must be sooo difficult for you!
