I know exactly what you mean - and its a double whammy because not only are you feeling a little resentful about it being so easy for them you are also feeling a little guilty for not being happy. I find all the pregnancies one of the hardest parts to deal with because its NOT FAIR!!!!!
When you do get there you will have a stronger relationship and a huge appreciation for your baby.
Hi Lisa....big hug for you....I feel like crying & screaming along with you ! My sister just had a bub & she wasn't even TTC ! Then a good friend just had another bub yesterday & now today AF is due for me so I got a bit emotional reading your post. The worst thing for me is when these people who I'm close to ignore what I'm feeling & try their best not to talk about my feelings about what's happening...at least ask if I'm alright !I'm going to tell you I'm fine even if I'm not but at least I feel that they haven't forgotten I'm hurting! Keep talking to us because you can say anything & we all understand your feelings and no it's not fair but we will get through the tears & tantrums 1 day at a time...keep smiling sweetie xoxox
Thanks for your kind words - it really means alot.
I'm waiting at the moment for my over-follicled ovaries to settle down to try and attempt IUI for the 2nd time. The fact that I had to wait two cycles in between has just made me so angry and it feels like such a waste of valuable months. I know it is for the best but in the meantime, while people are falling pregnant around you, it just makes things worse. You just want your turn, not having to go through all the crap!
Lissie - that is exactly what its like... I just wish somebody would fill my hope bubble up every now and again...
Mstickles - I know I will have a greater appreciation for my bub when it decides to come along. All the best.
cheeky73 - I really feel for you - It is one of the hardest things when the people around you try and avoid the situation. Like you said, half the time you don't want to talk about it anyway but you dont want to be forgotten. I know exactly what you mean. Thank god we've got each other to vent to and share experiences with each other!!
Good luck with your treatments Lisa.....
I'm about to go to see Dr Timothy Chang in Campbelltown,last time I seen him was in 2002. I haven't had any treatment for 5 years after I had 2 unsuccessful IVF attempts. I have been TTC for 10 years,9 of those classified as unexplained subfertility. I have never fallen pg in all that time.I'm not quite prepared to go back on IVF (cant afford at the mo) but I am going to have a chat about going back on clomid for longer than 2 cycles...CityWest IVF in Westmead would only allow me 2 cycles before pushing me to try IVF, I was only 27 when I started,I feel I was too young & more than a bit impatient! LOL so fingers crossed for the 17th, hopefully I'll have more luck on my journey this time....by the way I have spent the last 5 years spending lot's of $$$$ on chiro's, naturapaths & even spiritual healing rather than seeing an IVF specialist... I think it's time I slowly got back to it,i'm not getting any younger LOL
hopefully we will all have news for each other soon
