I have 1 dd who is 9 yo and have secondary impaired infertility (I think I'm describing that correctly - I became infertile after she was born, I shan't go into how).

I love my dd and it isn't that she isn't enough for me and new dh (who isn't her father), we want another dc for her aswell as for us.

We are trying to adopt and after we have adopted a little one, we may seek out fertility treatment, until then its just good old practising while the adoption process goes on.

I can't wait for our new son or daughter to come home to us and I afterwards I really hope to be pregnant again. It devastates me to think that there could be a chance that neither happen.

AIBU to get pissed off when people moan about their children or neglect them?? It drives me mad!! I know that I can't pass judgement on their challenges as I only have one dd and not 2, 3 or 4 or more children.....but when I see, hear or read these comments....I just want to scream, give them to us then!! Why did you have them??? Look at how lucky you are!!

It's just so frustrating to see and hear people making babies all around me when they don't even act like they want the children they have. it's just not fair at ll.

Hi, didn't want your post to go unanswered! I'm in a slightly different situation as am ttc number 1, but I totally understand how you feel when it comes to other people not appreciating what they have/ moaning about things or even worse neglecting or maltreating children. That just makes me so incredibly sad and angry. It's a horrible and deeply unfair situation I'm hoping we are able to conceive soon, but I would be interested in adopting and I have huge admiration for you - from what I can gather its an arduous process. Good luck - I hope you do get a BFP soon and the adoption goes well.

Hi...I get where you are coming from re: those with. We have been TTC number 1 for 11 months and I constantly feel age is against us (me 36, DH 38). There is another strand TTC 10+ Part 6. They are a great bunch of ladies and are very frank about things (avoiding eye contact with babies; crying at pg announcements). You could always lurk Wink. It is unbelievably frustrating and so hard sometimes to keep one's chin up. I hope you are feeling a bit better this end of the week. All the best of luck with the adoption, that in itself is a long process.

Thanks guys...I really appreciate your responses as I know it was literally a rant :-S
It sucks, it isn't fair and there's no way to make it right is there?
It's just beyond me how flippant some people are about/with their children.
