Well, yeah, she is kind of on the dumb side, lol.

I know if someone hasn't been in the infertile shoes, it can be hard to understand, but let me copy and paste a reply of mine from above that may shed a little light on what I'm thinking/feeling:

"I guess I have an unreasonable expectation for people who have had to deal with infertility to not spout stupid crap. And because she's a celebrity, people will give her credence. I just *know* that someone out there is going to have to deal with their mother/sister/mil/friend/coworker telling them "oh, you are infertile, go swim in some magical waters!". It just strikes me as more ammunition for insensitive fertiles say stupid things, and there are so many infertile people already living with a barrage of relentless horseshit on top of their own personal fears and pain."
