Seriously?

So today my father in law told me to" stop being so selfish and give [him] a grandchild already". Awesome. I seriously do not know how I didn't A) punch him in the face or B) burst into tears. Ugh, SO frustrating.  

We haven't told him about our trouble TTC (for multiple reasons) so he apparently thought he was being funny but no, that was not funny.  I really wish he would STFU about us getting pregnant. He brings it up every time we see him (which, thankfully is not all that often) and posts on my FB wall all the time about it even when it has nothing to do with anything. Example: One of my friends posted a video of a bunch of little puppies on my FB wall and my FIL commented saying "So cute!  You know what would be cuter? If it was a video of your baby!  WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO GET PREGNANT???" And 5 different people "liked" it.  Again, awesome. Oh how I wish I could block him...  

He's not the only one who posts shit like that either.  I just never respond to any it and hope people will catch on eventually.  We get the hint people; you want us to have a baby. So do we.  Now get off my back. 
Or am I being "selfish"?

    I'm so sorry, Chickin :( Your FIL's insensitivity is appalling, and I feel terrible that you have to endure it. IMHO, the FB hassling has to stop. Is there any way your DH can have a talk with his father to cut it out? Even without spilling the beans on your struggle with IF? Big ::hugs::

    Ugh what a horrible thing for him to say. You are right, some people just don't get it. I hope he catches on soon and knocks it off!

    I'm so sorry. No one should have to deal with that.

    Thanks ladies. I feel better writing it out and flicking him off Mrs. Doubtfire-style, even if it's only on my blog :-) He's definitely a bit of jerk in general (which is why we don't see him very often) but when I told DH about this last night he freaked out a little. He's going to talk to him today and tell him to lay off and stop posting stuff on my FB wall. I think he's going to let him know that we ARE trying and his comments are not helping, but is not going to go into detail about what's going on. Ugh, I don't want to see him again for a while.
