Seriously, I wish I could invent an app that let's me screen all updates for "OMG I'm totally pregnant!" statuses.

Everyone's getting pregnant now. Like yesterday I read someone's 6 weeks pregnant, Lily of How I met your mother is pregnant, the girl Taub of HouseMD is dating is pregnant and Taub isnt even sure he wants it, and my unmarried close friend accidentally got pregnant.



And I've been trying. Hard.

Add to that cristina yang who doesnt even want a baby!

I know someone announced a 3rd pregnancy on facebook

What really sucks is when you havebeen ttc so long that one person on facebook has is going through her second pregnancy since I started ttc

 

[welshgirl21]

I know what you mean; pregnancy seems to be having a boom in my circle of friends and family too; my cousin had her baby girl 4 weeks ago, her sister is due her baby boy in 2 weeks, 2 of my friends had their babies over the weekend, my friend from University is 5 months pregnant and 2 of my other friends have 6 month olds - they're everywhere!

 

[littlebird28]

I KNOW! Im trying to be understanding.....this is petty, but me and that girl started TTC at the same time. Every once in a while I would think "don't worry, **** is still trying, too!" so when I read "look at my sonogram, im 8 weeks pregnant!" it definitely stung a little. Booo. I also just started BBT this month despite having insomnia and wacky temps, and I just started getting some consistency with the temps. Yesterday I had a positive OPK so I really wanted to get a good temp this morning to see if I ovulated- but nope! Woke up every few hours last night. Booooo! Feeling a little more optimistic this morning, though.

Seriously, I wish I could invent an app that let's me screen all updates for "OMG I'm totally pregnant!" statuses.

I would actually pay for that app at this point. Over the weekend I got hit with 5 announcements for the same pregnancy. The father is a family friend so I got to read "gonna be a daddy" then from two of his sisters, each of whom has 2 kids of her own, then from his mother, and finally from a mutual friend who has a baby of his own I'm happy for them, but seriously...I'm just glad I don't have his wife on FB, 6 might have been my breaking point.

I agree! Yet another one of my friends (who I might say didn't even want another baby and wasn't even trying!) announced she is having a 3rd child on welfare! Sign... lots of my facebook friends are pregnant and it makes me sad every time I read it.

Girls keep your hopes up keep trying and lots of luck and love to you all!

i hate it when people do that, and when they put pictures of there scans up, everytime i see another status or picture i just want to cry

 

[BH040]

I know what you mean.... my friend just told me she was pregnant the other day and she already has three other kids one of which is only 7 months old and she can't afford the bills she has now.... I dont understand why some people can try and try and try and nothing when they would be great parents and really want to be parents and then people who, I'm sorry but don't deserve to be parents or can't afford to be parents can just think about a baby and bam they are pregnant! It is just not fair.

I am with you guys, it literally rips my heart up every time i see someone new pregnant on fb. I want to be happy for most of them but usually jealously rules me for a day. I don't comment on most because it is hard to see. The oops pregnancies are the worst. I was really thrilled for my cousin when she announced she was pregnant because she had been trying for years. But the oops ones get to me still.

 

[jennievictora]

i have a girl on fb who has a ticker every week showing what the babies doing that has now been hiden lol

 

[nautegesocks]

i wish i could have one of them too soooooooo much
my OHs best freind and his fiance came round before christmas and were calling us crazy for starting to ttc saying they were gonna wait another 2 years .......... wellll hey presto she got pregnant in january and now i have to endure it week by week on fb and im expected to carry on doing the group stuff with them wilst she goes on and on about it theres only so many times OH can say im not feeling well so cant come


baby to all

 

[BeeStrong]

Ugh! I know ladies! I feel the same way!

 

[butterflies3]

It's hard to see the announcements on FB, which seem to being popping up everytime I login. What's even harder for me is that I work in a small office where me and one of my reps were both TTC but she is almost 11 weeks now and talks about it allllllll day everyday. She will even complain about how she is showing so soon since this is her 2nd child!! Then the other day one of the guys came in and announced that he and his wife are expecting and while I was congratulating him I just started crying! It is sooo hard to want something sooo bad and have little to no control over it, I just get unbelievably frustrated to the point of tears!

Seriously!!!! I have a lot of girlfriends and for some reason we have all decided that now is the time to have babies (not on purpose). It seems like every other day I log onto FB and low and behold another lucky family... (Sad face for me and others TTC, not for them)

 

[littlebird28]

I know!! I tend to get snappy and judgemental to cope, which is bad! Here are some mean examples: My boss is 49 and very overweight, but got pregnant immediately. Another girl just announced she got pregnant during her honeymoon which was a few weeks ago (way too early to announce a pregnancy, in my humble opinion) but when she uploaded her honeymoon pictures she was chugging screwdrivers in every picture. Not saying drinking before knowing you're pregnant is bad, but I keep trying to follow every rule in the book (even gave up glorious coffee!) and still no luck. Maybe I should replace coffee with vodka.

 

[babyonmymind]

I couldn't agree with you more!! I stayed off of facebook until recently, due to a m/c. I couldn't handle being on it anymore, it'd drive me crazy!
