Lois Lane here, reporting in for a news brief. I’ve received an electronic message in my in-box (offtheifrecord@gmail.com) from a blogger who needs to vent.

I know that Infertility treatments cost a lot in emotions, time and money (especially when you don’t have insurance). I have supported the U-Brigade in funding as well as donated (not sold) meds to others in the same boat. It may not be much, but I do what I can while trying to support my IF habits.That being said, OMG, what is up with a “Donate” button to help buy stuff for impending baby? IUI’s are a bit less then an IVF or donor cycle….. And how can you ask for money in one place and debate buying something non baby related in the same breath?Come on, most of us have done what we could and what we had to do. We do what we can to help others in the same boat. Please, stop what I feel is greedy…
You’ve got to be kidding? There are people out there asking to donate stuff for their upcoming… some people.
WAY.
Found this..
“Donate to the Baby Fund
We know that money is tight for all those families out there that are TTC or who are pregnant and are expecting a new addition. If you would like to help by donating to our baby fund, please click the donate button below. All donations will be used for baby needs only. Thank you for all your support and well wishes!”

Give me a bloody break. No, you will not get any money. I’m busting my hump to pay for my IVF with help from no one, and I will be responsible for paying for any resulting child(ren) on my own and it has never occurred to me to ask for help for either. I can see IVF but for kids stuff. Whoever that is needs a swift kick in the pants.
That is so ridiculous, upsetting and greedy.
Ugh 😦
So what if they ask for donations? You don’t have to give them. If this is one way for someone else to get a step closer to being able to afford thier fertility treatments then let them be, just choose to use your money somewhere else.
infertility is bound to cause people to do just about anything!!

Amazing! This blog looks exactly like my old one!
It’s on a totally different topic but it has
pretty much the same layout and design. Outstanding choice
of colors!
