Long Term Trying To Conceive Vent Thread

[chefamy1122]

I was just told by a coworker that his teenage daughter is pregnant by her boyfriend of just a few months

Life is so fucking unfair.

I am officially getting drunk tonight.

UGHH SO UNFAIR...... bottoms up....

 

[DESPONDENT]

Sometimes I really feel like there is no jsutice in this world! hearing stuff like that grates my nerves. I agree, bottoms up ladies!
Yesterday I told DH that never again will I put my life on hold during the 2WW, been so careful with not drinking, avoiding caffeine etc and missing out on general good times trying to rest....and where has that got me?? NOWHERE!! from now on , no regrets, I will only make changes once I get a BFP!!! I swear that 2WW for someone TTC has got to be the most torturous time , well except for the day AF arrives. As much as I say I am not going to have expectations and that way I wont be disappointed, its human nature...I actually start believing I could be preggos, and then Im even more crushed when AF arrives.
Well, next Sat (16th) we go in for our 3rd IUI. I am going in with a different mindset this time -having it done then forgetting it and going on with life and not obsessing. I read somewhere that if IUI is going to work for someone it generally does within the first 3 cycles, wonder how true this is. I will also be on my 4th round of clomid, heard the maximum cycles for this is 6, so I guess the end of my IUI/Clomid journey is fast approaching. Should this not work then its lap surgery, and if a possibility IVF. Even saying that is hard for me...guess I never thought I would have infertility issues since I have never had problematic periods my entire life, not even missed a single month, been like clockwork. Just so angry with my body for failing me!!!

So sorry, Despondent.
I am just doing things natural and AF kills me each time she comes, I can't imagine how much more devastating it would be if I'd been doing IUI. Hang in there!


AF arrived for me today too... I don't usually get PMS but I think today I may take some liberties... Been doing this hopeful/heartbreak cycle for almost two years so I think it would make sense for us to be grumpy! Watch out world!

Despondent, hope you are finding ways to spoil yourself today.

Today's rant - facebook friend is pregnant and has had a gender scan. I'm ok with that although mentioning the baby in every post is getting old. My rant is that they've given her a really common, boring and mundane name. Don't they realise that their little miracle deserves something with a bit of thought put into it?

 

[amysueno]

Ugh!
Yes, I care about you. Yes, I'm happy for you. Yes, I will celebrate your little bundle of joy now and when she's born.
But do you gotta ask me to help plan the baby shower on the day that AF comes to tell me I won't be having one of my own any time soon?

Okay, can't bite my tongue any longer. I envy all you ladies who can vent. I always type but feel bad. Because I really don't wish for people to have infertility. But whatever yesterday my Facebook was FLOODED with like 10 fb posts 3 from expecting mom 3 from the expecting father (the couple are both friends of my sister). Then post from my sister to this couple. Pictures of sonograms. Then today my sister posts a picture of 4 girls (her included) with their baby bumps. I just want to freaking post.." OKAY WE GET IT, YOU'RE PREGNANT". Anyways, I'm freaking sick of it. Then to top it off my pregnant friend (coworker) texts me saying "babies head down" OMG! Yesterday and today are too much. I told my mom this morning I WILL NOY BE ANNOUNCING MY PREGNANCY ON FB! I'm happy for all them but calm down. I feel so horrible for feeling this way, I want people to freely be but I can't help it. Errrrrrr.
Rant over . to us ladies!!!

I feel like i can't even turn on my computer or answer my phone anymore. Everytime I look at facebook someone else is friggin pregnant and posting their pictures and stuff. One of my close friends just announced she is pregnant yesterday and I burst out crying. I have had several employees recently get pregnant accidentally and have either quit their jobs because of it or want me to pity them because the pregnancy is unwanted. it makes me want to scream! I want to scream at them that they have no idea how lucky they are and that I'll take their baby! I have PCOS and a luteal phase defect. I would give anything to be surprised with a pregnancy rather than try month after month only to get another BFN. It feels like I'm letting my husband down because my body just can't do this. We're seeing a specialist at the end of March and I hope we can get some answers. I'm feeling so down and hopeless.

Chefamy. ((((((hugs)))))). Those are the worst I think. they really hve lil clue about babies and life and have to learn as they go enjoy your drink and tommorows another day.

My rant: you call your re to schedule an appt and when she asks you how long you've been ttc and you tell her almost 2 years and she says "oh wow!" I mean come on!!! You work at a re office, you must get that type of answer all the time. Thanks for making me feel so little.

AF is due around Vday and my Bday, I really do hate this time of year. If everybody could just keep pregnancy and birth announcements to themselves on those two days I'd be very grateful

 

[amysueno]

Damn! AF is a !
After spotting yesterday, AF came back with a vengeance today. I felt like crap all day but had to pull it together because I had my yearly teaching review at work today.
I went to pee a few minutes before my yearly review and found I had leaked. It's a good thing I had a long top on today or I'm not sure what I'd have done.
As if it were not bad enough to get reminded every month that I'm not pregnant, this month I also got embarrassed on a major review day?!

 

[moose31]

ugh 3 FB friends just posted pics of newborns born yesterday and today. well at least i dont have to read their pregnancy updates about how awful it is to be pregnant

 

[awifey]

I couldn't help crying at brunch with the friends yesterday because while my circle of friends knows what dh and I are facing, there were a bunch of other people and they kept talking about who's all preg. That they know and going over and over it. Dh also made some comments that bothered me and another friend suggested that because I'd been ill the day before that I am bfp. I also had to tell her, no way (after she kept delving and basically trying to symptom spot me and tell me that af can still show) because dh is azoo. She tried to say well her x dh had a low count then they had a kid 'cause that diagnosis can increase count. Had to tell her that no count is a bit different than a low count. Then she's all like would you like some brown babies? (Her now so is a brown-skinned seal. My dh is a skinny white boy. I'm like no! Her so just wants more of his babies roaming the earth. Grr.)

non TTC vent: AHHHHH just cleared driveway cars and walkway after storm . snow totals 21 inches here ....I am pooped....

 

[navywag]

So annoyed at people who think they know better than you about what your going through! Even tho their 4 kids where all 'surprise' pretty much one after another and then she had to wait a whole 3 months for the one she's carrying now, if she wasn't pregnant I'm not sure I could of stopped myself giving her a slap!!

 

[xlouloux]

How many times must I see the words "My princess" or "My little man" I'm assuming those aren't your children's birth names? I can't even unbaby you, because you're family and I'm expected to "like" every picture you post.

Oh my god thank you! That bugs the heck out of me now..it's like as if kids don't have names anymore. I understand saying it in purpose to the baby, but on facebook?

We recently got a new dog (saved her from euthanasia after being sent to a shelter after being picked up from the house of her previous owner, owner was dead for 10 days prior before being found. She was 8 years old, senior dogs don't last in shelters) so we now have 2 dogs, 1 cat, 2 birds and a few fish. DH said "Well our family is now complete" and I couldn't help myself saying "not quite......" I love my furry babies but the day we have a human baby in our house is when our family will officially be complete, even if it's just one.

Just a little rant about how unfair life is and how is it fair that people that dont even like their children can have them by just looking at a man but people like me who have been ttc for over 4 years cant even ovulate. Fed up with seeing all my friends get pregnant and start their families, just want to be able to give my husband what he wants more than anything. Feel like a failure.
