. . . the happy news of other couples inwardly makes you sad or bitter.

. . . your husband no longer flinches upon producing a semen sample.

. . . you can’t go to baby showers.

. . . you start treating other people’s kids a little bit better in the hopes that it will prepare you for loving your own.

. . . you begin to think that IVF isn’t so expensive after all.
