Officially 2 years and a little defeated.

[Kittymommy]

So this month marks two years of ttc (not counting a couple of months of ntnp). So what happens? My si announces she's pregnant with her 6th. Her 2nd pregnancy since I've been ttc. It is a good thing they are very good parents and people. But last week I went on this whole infertility rant and how terrible things are right now and how this is the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with. So I felt like everyone was watching me for my reaction ...it was so awkward! You can only fake it so much at this point.

I completely came unglued on the drive home/the rest of the night. I don't know how I'm going to make it through this pregnancy, I'm a little to worn down at this point.
Anyway I just needed to get it out.

I know exactly what you mean. Last month was 2 years ttc. Since then my cousin has had a baby unplanned of course and my sister has had twins. I want to be happy for them I really do which I am but it just gets to a point where it is really unfair.
Everyone is always saying it will happen... Etc which it possibly will but every month becomes that much harder.
Good luck Hun x

Hugs to you. It had been a 2.5 years for us and both my sisters have gotten pregnant and given birth to their 4 and 3rd kids in that time frame. Two of my sister-in-laws are currently pregnant and my best friend just told be that she is pregnant. Literally it was her first month off birth control. I am so happy for her but I compleltly came undone. I don't think I cried that hard long in a long a time.

We are going through the exact same thing! We've been trying for 16 months, went to a fertility specialist after 8 months of trying and it turns out both my tubes were blocked. ::sigh:: Had surgery and we are still waiting for this to happen for us.

In the meantime, my best friend got pregnant with her first and second the first month of trying, my sister got pregnant a month after her wedding and they were not trying at all! Right now, they are both 8 weeks.

Never thought getting pregnant would be so difficult!

I never knew how hard it would be to fake the happiness for other people. Maybe not faking happiness, but hiding the pain you feel in the face of constant reminders of how easy it is for everyone else.

Can completely relate, been 2 years ttc too. Everyone we know has had babies, some on their second. Our new neighbour is pregnant, she's very shy but her husband keeps giving us updates on her progress whenever we happen to see him, which seems to be fairly regularly as he's always loitering about. I just want to tell him to shut up, that I really don't need to hear about it, but just have to smile, nod and fake a reaction whilst crying inside. Totally fed up hearing 'it'll happen soon', 'just relax', 'it'll happen when it's meant to be' blah blah blah! The whole thing is exhausting and I totally feel for you.

Good luck and hugs to you x

Ugh I completely agree with all of you ladies!!

It's been 2.5 years for us. We were NTNP but we've been wondering why it hasn't happened for us when we were just having fun like everyone was saying that it'll happen when you don't think about it.

I've been off of BC for 2.5 years so it still hasn't happened.

Just recently I found out my bridesmaid from my wedding got pregnant and they've only been married for over a year.

I went bizarre!! I've got crazy baby fever!!!!

It is really hard, you are happy for them but at the same time you don't want to hear it. I found out my friend at work was pregnant last week and she was on the pill. I'm really happy for her, but I came home and just broke down! there is me that is over 2 years ttc. And 5th round of clomid and still no sign.
Good luck to you all ladies ! Positive thinking
I'm going to book a holiday and hopefully try take my mind of things as I think it can start to take over your life x

You are right, it IS the most difficult thing to go through. It's difficult seeing people post on Facebook about being pregnant and it's difficult hearing abou lt our own family members being pregnant.

After 2 years of TTC for me, I finally fell pregnant naturally, by total surprise. Unforchantly I lost the baby at 11.5 weeks. It was the most difficult thing I had to deal with in my life. I feel like I'll never be pregnant again.

Ugh this world is so cruel sometimes.

Hi girls My DH and I have been trying now for nearly 2 years and it's very frustrating, but I guess you just need to stay positive (although sometimes I hate when people tell you that ha ha), but it's true really.

Like you said Louiser91, It is really hard when it seems everyone around you is getting pregnant, you are happy for them but it doesn't stop you having a big old cry about it once you get home! lol.
I was doing really well not to get upset over the last 5 months but I caved a couple of nights ago , poor Hubby ha ha, but we'll get there

Good luck to all of you and lets hope we don't have to wait too much longer.

I think the hardest is when you know your going to come on your period but ou try to convince yourself that maybe this time you won't. So everyday /hour you are late you get your hopes up to be devastated the next day.
I think for me it's not know when it will happen but if it will happen for piece of mind. It's great to have a little cry I think we all deserve it lol
