I couldn't even come up with one thing I was thankful for on Thanksgiving. Well maybe for my new job... but otherwise, I'm in the same boat.

Thank you.

Perfect. I lurk a lot and read your blog and you actually made me tear up. We are at the 2 year milestone and our next cycle we will be testing on Christmas day to see if it worked...setting myself up there! Holidays are so hard..it's nice to know someone understands

Well said and happy thanksgiving!

You totally nailed it. I also feel like I should be more thankful, yet somehow every Thanksgiving it's as if the movie is stuck on repeat in the same scene where everyone says "oh you're turn is coming - you'll get pregnant soon" Right. I usually take solace in the fact that at least I can enjoy a glass (bottle?) of wine while the pregnant cousins look on enviously. Ha!

I couldn't have said it better myself. People don't understand unless they've been through it too. This is our first holiday after losing our first hope of a family, and 6 other family members. I will be thinking of you and everyone else struggling with infertility.
Fuck you holidays.
PS-and if I hear one more time "You're still young".....

what a lovely, well said post. I hope we can all "truly" enjoy the holidays ourselves very soon!

Ah wine. Getting people through tough holidays since 4000 BCE (or something).

You can be thankful and angry at the same time. It's weird when you realize that. These aren't simple emotions because this isn't a simple problem.

I want you to be next. I'll wish that this Thanksgiving, for all my girls who are still trying and hoping.

This post should be bronzed! I couldn't have said it better myself. F**k You holiday season! :)

You always know just the right thing to say. Especially the "yeah asshole" part. :) I'm thankful that I found your blog, and have gotten to know what a wonderful person you are by reading your words. Thanks, Katie.

Right back at ya hun!!! I hope this is our LAST season with these thoughts and emotions. I hope next year we watch every commercial so we can make a list of every 'babies 1st year' EVERYTHING for our babies first year! xoxo

Fantastic post. Here's wishing you a relatively painless holiday season--with hopefully some actual happy in there. I know how very hard it is.
