You just love when a fertile or an unhelpful relative informs you that “you’re next” to get pregnant. It starts off with a subtle wink and smile and then you are told that you “will be next.”
Fantastic!
How do you know that I will be next? Just because my friend, sister, brother, relative just got pregnant does not mean I will be ‘next.’ Do you have some kind of inside information telling you that I will be the next one? If so, please share. You said last year after you got pregnant that I would be ‘next’ but then I wasn’t. How do you explain that? I thought we had a verbal agreement that I would be next. You said it yourself. I WOULD BE NEXT!! But then 5 other women got pregnant and I wasn’t next so I am confused. Can you please explain further? WHY AM I NOT NEXT??
If being ‘next’ means that I will get pregnant within 1-10 years, spend a significant amount of money on fertility medication, fail several fertility procedures, experiment with donor sperm and eggs and pee on a negative pregnancy stick each month, then I guess I am ‘next.’

Another great one!
Mmmhmmm.. definitely agree
Hahaha, if only you could sue the relative/friend/neighbor for breach of contract after you make the verbal agreement to be "next". That, at least, would help you fund more treatments…
Good one!
The next person who says I'm next will get their nose broken for sure…
I'm only 'next' to ovulate.
Defintely agree
I've heard that "I'm next" far to often. Or how about the gem, when I did get pregnant I was told, "I told you it would happen!" Wow, I'm glad they're so clairvoyant. And then I miscarried a week later. Hmm, they didn't see that one coming, oddly enough…
love the t-shirt.
Ditto to what InfertileNaomi stated..although right now I am 'next' for AF since o is behind me right now…
I know this is an older post, but I just had to comment!
Since everyone on both sides have kids or are expecting, we’ve been told “you’re next “quite a bit lately. I figured that was kind of obvious as we are the only ones left? Who else can possibly be next to start having kids!?
I just found your blog and I am loving it!
