Worst Advice

When people find out Kirby and I are trying to get pregnant, mostly they are very sweet and thoughtful. But, other times I think instead of saying something "smart" or "funny" it's better to say nothing at all. These are taken from The Bump, but every one of these statements have been said to me at one time or another.
1. "Just relax and it will happen."
2. "Just relax. I know couples who've made themselves infertile because they stressed themselves out so much." Really? NOW I can relax.
3. “Don't think about it because if you do you will jinx it.” Really? I didn't know brain activity affected fertility.
4. “When you stop trying it will happen.” How does one NOT try while trying?
5. “Everything happens for a reason.” Ugh
6. "You have all the time in the world. don't rush into things!" Well, according to my body (and doctor) I do NOT have all the time in the world.
