I have heard this phrase so many times in the last 7 weeks, have used it a few times myself to fill in an awkward moment and even take a little comfort from it at times. I really do feel for people who don't know what to say but if I hear it once more I think I will scream!
A lovely and well meaning colleague said it today and rounded it off with 'well you'll just have to concentrate on your boys now'. Well it's true I am 41 and the pregnancy was unplanned, but most people apart from my very nearest and dearest haven't gone near the topic of ttc or not. Think I just got peeved at the assumption that I wasn't. Vent over
