What in the media bothers you the most since TTC?

This post is part of the 30 Day Infertility Blogging Challenge. I thought this might be a great way for me to focus on my infertility, but also to show myself in a different light. You can read the whole series by clicking here.

What in the media bothers you the most since TTC?

19. What TV show/ movie/ commercial/ print ad has bothered you the most since you began trying to conceive?  If possible, post it here.  Tell us why it bothered you so much.

Basically any ad that tells you that “YOU CAN GET PREGNANT IN 8 WEEKS BY FOLLOWING OUR 5-STEP SOLUTION!”  It is ads like these that are a part of the problem of making us infertiles appear neurotic and crazy.  “Maybe if you just relax, moron, you’ll get pregnant!”

Maybe I should show them our treatment plan over the last 4 years, injection sites, and my rotund, bloated midsection from progesterone.  8 weeks, my enlarged ovaries my ass.

    I always get super annoyed by the EPT commercial where the woman doesn't want it to say Pregnant. Then when it says Not Pregnant she "breathes a sigh of relief" Ugh.
