I made her cry

Back to my appointment this morning. I had quite the wait. While I was waiting a lady I'll call her M came in with her husband and 2 yo son. The husband went back to give his sample for iui and then took the son and left. After they left M turned to me to apologize about bringing her son to the clinic. I said no worries. I get that it can be painful for some, however being a mom myself I also understand that sometimes it just is...you do what you have to in infertility world. Anyways we got talking after that and M told me about her ivf cycles at a different clinic...her son a result of ivf #2 and her first cycle quite similar to mine. They are doing iui now since finding out her tubes are infact patent. Anyways my whole story came out and I made her cry but she was great asked lots of questions and it felt good to talk to her. We even share a similar feeling of not being totally there for the children we do have because of the focus on IF. M plans on ivf later this summer if the iui's fail. Hopefully their iui will work and they can be done with their if journey.....same thing I hope for us.
