Thanks for the “silver lining”, Susan 😒🙄
If you’re talking to someone with infertility please don’t minimize it… comments like, “Just enjoy being able to sleep late . . . .travel . . etc.,” do not offer comfort. Instead, these comments make infertile people feel like you are minimizing their pain.
All too often people feel uncomfortable with hard topics like infertility… and they make it about themselves and wanting to relieve the tension by saying something lighthearted with an “upside”. DON’T- just don’t!!! Sometimes silence is golden. A simple “I am so sorry you are dealing with this. How can I help?” … or “I’m here to listen” goes a long long way.
