*****Warning*****Mad Men spoiler alert*****
What a good infertile you are.
You thought of your husband's needs first and didn't pursue adoption when he was against it. You didn't want to bother him with your true infertile emotions.
You were a selfless friend, happy to be among fertile, pregnant women, in fact you seemed to love it, maybe over-compensating just a bit at that wedding, asking all the questions people ask and sharing in their excitement--and then you danced your heart out with your husband.
You stayed relaxed, positive and polished at your ladies' luncheons and in your shirtwaist dresses, content being a wife, daughter and living child free (though we all knew that wasn't the last we'd hear of your fertile desires).
but most of all,
You just kept trying...and then it happened.
Congratulations Trudy Campbell, may all your wishes come true!

So unrealistic and then maybe in many ways realistic for this time. I have to say I was really hoping they would deal with whatever people did about infertility then. I don't know at least explore adoption. It is Hollywood, though!
