Everyone around me is pregnant or just had a baby

[Fleece Be With You]

Or both. I have literally had 6 or 7 friends/acquaintances announce pregnancies in the last couple weeks, at least one with twins, and several who were actively avoiding. In addition to those new announcements, I know at least 6 other pregnant ladies, two ladies who gave birth this week, and literally almost everyone else I know has an infant.

I know my DS is only 2.5, but we have been "trying" (mostly hoping to try, I haven't had a postpartum cycle yet) for close to 2 years. I just want another baby, everyone else around me gets one, why not me? Sorry for the pity party, I just know some of you here will get it, most of my IRL friends don't

I'm so sorry. Wanting another baby and not being able to get pregnant is unbelieveably hard. Infertility sucks.

Two days ago a friend from our former church posted pictures of their new baby on facebook. He usually only posts sports stuff, dh and him grew apart when dh was deployed and now we live too far away to really keep in touch so I had no idea his wife was pregnant. Their first child is ten months old. I cried. I would never admit that to most people, even people who know about our losses and struggles. They just don't get it.

It's hard to watch others have kids and not be able to have a baby of your own. I will never tell my sister but I came home and cried when she announced her second pregnancy. She was tta. It took us 4 years to get our second and 8 years to finally get our last child. I want more but don't think it will ever happen. With each child the space between them gets farther apart. I am 36 now so not that much time left to wait.

(((HUGS))) I totally understand how you feel. It seems that everyone we know is about to have a baby.

((((((hugs))))))) I know it sucks. We tried for 3+ years for our first lo. Nobody really knew, and people would complain to me about it taking them five or six months. Then I was pregnant and due around the same time as four or five other women at my church. Then I had a miscarriage, and had too see all the others be pregnant and have new babies. it's rough, but it gets better. Hang in there.
