I know how silly and jealous I'm being, yet I can't seem to stop feeling this way.

I just found out a girl and her bf who live down the road from me (her bf works with my OH) are going to start trying, she's only just turned 19 and hasn't been with him very long. I should be happy for them, and anyway who am I to judge?

But then again I feel I may scream if I find out shes pregnant before me, pathetic as it is, I actually feel that I may get really mad!

I realise how nasty and jealous it is of me and that I shouldn't feel this way, afterall she doesn't know me and my OH have been trying.

Its really stupid and jealous of me, I know it is, I can't stop thinking about it though. :nope:

It must be my hormones or something, anyone else get like this? :dohh:
 
yep me but i get jealous of the "celebs" that get pregnant then judge them because they are older and they shouldnt be able to get pregnant before me despite the fact that it actually probably did due to their age . . . for example, celine dion, john travoltas wife then the chavvy people who get preg for example anyone who has been in big brother and then the random actresses - the one that used to be in corrie and the sonya girl out of eastenders but do you know which one REALLY took the biscuit? the blinking BT WOMAN! i am the same it is normal! lol
 
yep i am the same!!! anyone who i see who is pregnant puts me in a sad mood. My OH's 17yr old cousin has had her baby about a week ago and i went round to see the baby and was soooooooo jealous, i just wanted to smuggle her outta the house lol. i just thought out of everyone in my family and the OH's family we were gonna be next! Just wish this TTC was alot easier.But they do say the more u focus on TTC and stressing over it, the less likely it is to happen! i really wanna get some OPKs but think i may obsess so gonna just try and take a relaxed approach.

good luck girlies and lots of baby dust xxxxxxxxxx
 
Me too! My OH's sister has announced she is trying and fully expects to be pregnant by Christmas! Bet she will be too. I dont know how I will handle this, I will be absolutely gutted. Every time she calls now, I find myself holding my breath waiting for her to announce her pregnancy. I just really hope she does not tell us in person as I dont think I could pretend that much. It is so unfair, she laughs at me for taking pills to help (only folic acid and EPO) and says that women have been getting pregnant for years without these things and that "it cant be that hard if all these people have one night stands and get pregnant" ( I had to sit on my hand s not to slap her at this point. The frustrating thing is that in her case she will probably be right and get pregnant in the first month.:hissy: PS - thinking and writing this makes me feel like a complete bitch!
 
:hugs:
I'm one of the most jealous people you could ever meet, seriously. I'm trying to deal with it, as I know I have a lot going for me. But I get jealous of people's possessions, houses, pets, cars, and of course their babies and pregnancies!

This is particularly awful (please don't judge me!) :dohh:
A few weeks ago my DH and I went to a wedding, and my DH was the best man. The couple have sooooooooooooo much money, it actually makes me feel a bit sick. They don't have good jobs, but he had VERY WEALTHY parents, who left him a massive inheritance. They spent about £25,000 on the wedding! Twenty-five THOUSAND Quid! Can you even imagine having that much money to spend on one day??? I can't. I spent the months leading up to the day green through and through, and it was even worse on the day. :(
Oh yeah, and they have a baby daughter (conceived three months into the relationship!).

I try not to be so envious, but it's damn hard.
 
Thanks ladies,

It does make you feel horrible but its fully understandable.
Like when I see women have got pregnant on here after trying for so long, I am genuinley happy for them because they deserve it and it gives the rest of us hope.

Its these ones who just think about babies...then bam they're pregnant, or the ones who miss a pill or dont use a condom once and they're pregnant, when the rest of us try and long for it to happen.

I hate jealousy, I'm similar to you tattoo, I do get jealous pretty easily. I never want people to think I'm a failure or that we can't afford things or can't do things,

Gosh I get jealous too.
In the last 3 months, My sis, sis in law and 2 of my friends have given birth and I sobbed to my husband but he understands. My sis and sis in law know we are trying and really don't rub it in my face or ask about it but its hard to see all these new babies and not feel the green eyes. I just look at all the things I have and think how lucky I am.
 
Oh me too!

I work in a nursey/pre-school and it seems all the kids mums have bumps at the moment! Every time I see them the crazy lady voice in my head says "It's not fair, you already have a child! When is it my turn??"

On top of that one of the girls I work with fell pregnant within a month of coming off the contraceptive pill! Whenever she says something like "Just have lots of sex, it's easy!" I want to kick her...
 
Totally understand! My two best friends are pregnant (we all found out at the same time, but I lost mine) and as much as I luv them and am happy for them iv hardly seen them since they've announced it as I just can't stand to talk to them about it and watch their bumps grow. I feel awful, but just don't wanna know!
