Ha! 2 posts in the space of 2 hours! I've set myself a record. In my last post I said I was going to sleep...well that didn't happen. I checked my facebook (aka Crackbook) instead. It tipped me over the edge and now i seriously need to vent otherwise i'll never sleep! Facebook is crap, I don't know why I even bother checking the newsfeeds. Oh that's right - i'm addicted to it! I just can't help myself. It is filled with baby this and baby that... status updates about mommy not getting enough sleep , morning sickness blah blah and blah. And lets not forget the tonnes of photos straight from the delivery room! Then today - the straw that broke the camels back- I get tagged to fill out a questionaire about my ....FIRSTBORN!! Hey hang on! I don't have a first born!! Why would you even send this to me??? The friend who send it to me filled out all these questions about her firstborn's birth etc... and tagged a whole list of people to do the same. This friend knows we are struggling with IF. She knows we have been trying since before she even fell pregant with her first (she now has 2).... so why send it to me? To make me feel even worse - out of the list of people she sent the tag to, 99.9% of them have either a baby in their profile pic or a baby bump.
In her defence - she probably just automatically sent it to all her female friends.....and I guess it's not her fault i'm the only one with IF.
Anyway i feel better now....less like throwing something across the room.
Now I have to go and check my facebook again! Just quickly and then i'm really going to sleep....i'm tragic

Seriously...I would be super annoyed as well. Regardless if she sent it to all her female friends or not..she should have some consideration for your situation. Personally I would shoot her a message on FB and tell her to exclude you from those type of activities. UGH! I am addicted to facebook as well. Hang in there hun!!
I mean to wish you luck with your lap! Is this your first one?
Grrrr...those thoughtless mistakes can be sooooo painful. Wishing you a successful surgery.
All of that crap is why I've been putting off joining FB.
If it were me I would totally ask her, "Why would you send me that, knowing what I'm going through?" (nice version) or "What the hell is wrong with you?" (not as nice version).
Hope your surgery goes well!
Ughh...I just saw that poll floating around FB too, but fortunately nobody tagged me in it! That is so wrong! **hugs**

Thinking of you during surgery. Hope everything goes good.
I stay away from facebook because I KNOW I'd get addicted and I KNOW it would just make me mad. LOL.
blech. yesterday, I was at a bridal shower and I was the ONLY one on my table with a infant in my lap or children at home. =( ah well.....
Good luck on your surgery tomorrow. Keep us posted!
I got the same post last week. I blew up on poor dp and she went back to the woman (that she works with) and asked her not to send me anything. Everyone knows we've been trying, to no real success. It was horrible. I'm sorry you had to deal with that also.
