I VERY much agree with all of these suggestions! What I wouldn’t give for those who know what we’re going through to just ask if I want to talk about it and not pretend it doesn’t exist. I told you for a reason and the fact that you’re ignoring the elephant in the room is REALLY annoying! Also, DON”T ASK ME WHEN IT’S ALL GOING TO HAPPEN! If we can abide by these rules, then I’m all about sharing what I’m going through. This is all I ask.
Don’t Ignore the Elephant

Totally agree! I have a good friend going through IVF now and I made her a TWW care package of trashy magazines, a date night gift card, pampering things (foot scrub, face mask, candle) and even included adult coloring books. Sending cards in the mail too are perfect! Great post!
Ah that sounds like a perfect gift!! I’m thinking of making a tww package for a friend too. This is a great idea!
