Of course, and I feel bad saying this, but one of my friends is also trying for baby number two, only she just has to look at her hubby and she's pregnant. Sadly she just had a miscarriage and I feel very badly for her about this. However I also can't help feeling jealous that she will likely recover from this and get pregnant before I've even started treatment.

I'm a horrible friend, I know. I hate feeling this way. I would love us to be pregnant together...but instead I just feel jealous.

Totally normal, and no, you are not a bad friend.

I have 3 kids and I still feel jealous. I will forever be jealous of people's fertility. I don't think it's going to go away now. I will probably be 60, hear of someone's granddaughter getting pregnant on birth control, and be jealous. I imagine that outsiders look at me with 3 kids and are jealous of my fertility too, not knowing how much effing work it can be to get a baby....or two....or three.

It's not that I don't want my friends to be pregnant, I just want to be pregnant with them. I'm waiting for my friend to announce that she is expecting #4. She was complaining last month that it's been 6 whole months and she's always conceived within 4 months. She was wondering why it's so hard now, (yes, I did want to smack her through the phone ). With our first children, I had been ttc for about a year when she started to ttc. She conceived before me and then delivered her baby before I was even pregnant. I don't want to do that again, but I really don't have a choice if it happens or not.

We get it.

hi everyone just poppin in to say hello. i haven't been in for a long time. since going back to college to finish my program hubby and I are not ttc until March. This is to make sure i can get through all my classes. I've been trying to gradulate for two years now and i only have three classes to take and pass in order for me to graduate this year. so i have my fingers cross that i can hold out in ttc until then.

Everyone else who had their i want to say CONGRATULATIONS to you and all the best!
