Today my co-worker insinuated I was pregnant because I had to rush to the bathroom. An unfortunate side effect of the fertility drugs I've taken for the last two months. Yesterday my doctor told me I will likely never carry another child.FML

Ah, I'm sorry op... Although it tends to be quite expensive, if you really want a child I've heard you can have someone else carry it for you. The best of luck, op.

You can still adopt kids! It's not an "inferior" choice either, those kids deserve a life as well, and though I am perfectly healthy, I refuse to ever give birth to a child myself

Can I ask why?? I only have half a uterus & just gave birth to a little girl. My doctor says I can have more!

I'm sorry for your situation, but glad you can carry more children. I personally would prefer not to discuss details of my medical history publicly. Best of luck to you.

I don't remotely feel adoption is an inferior choice. I simply loved carrying my daughter, pregnancy and childbirth were the greatest experience of my life. In the moment it was a crushing blow which I simply was not prepared for. I would never rule out adoption, but I was looking forward to a second pregnancy.

I am so sorry. I'm in the same boat, and know there really isn't anything that can be said to make things better. Ignore the people who comment about over population, or how you should adopt. It's your life. Not theirs. And it's easy to make judgements from the outside looking in.

I'm so sorry for you as well. They're entitled to their opinions, and I respect outside perspectives, but what works for one won't work for all, and that's ok! The most helpful thing for me is being proactive and facing things head on, and being optimistic where I can be, and accepting reality where I can't. I wish you kick and comfort with your fertility journey, remember not every mom has children. I know many childless women with a mother's heart!
