I am sorry. I don't know your story, but I know that has to be hard.

awww...so sorry you're going through that.   I know exactly how you feel...it's terrible.   I don't really have any good advice to share,  I know everyone says "stay positive" and "it'll happen when it's supposed to", but I honestly want to punch all those people in the mouth!  hehe.   Seriously, I say just let it out!!!

It is hard to be happy for others when they are getting what we want so badly but you have to try and do your best.  Plus, you will have anew niece or nephew to borrow!

I am sorry, I know it is hard.

I am sorry. I don't know your story, but I know that has to be hard.

Well my story is as follows:

DH and I got married 8/07. Been ttc since then but havent really told anyone about it and here we are almost 3 years later and no BFP. His SIL found out she was pregnant in august and was one of the hardest things i had to deal with. Not only was I sad that i wasnt pregnant, I was mad at myself for feeling jealous of her. So, after I slipped into a deep state of depression I figured i would lmake the best of it. I asked her to throw the shower and bought a bunch of nice things for their little girl, who i am godmother of, and started planning up a storm. About a month ago she decided to name her little one Emma Claire. Cute right... not to me because she knew that I planned on naming my first child that after my great grandfather who passed away 8 years ago. My MIL told her that and she had the nerve of saying, and I quote "She's not the one who's pregnant, she's not the one having the baby". Since then I have been a terrible wreck. I dont want to do anything or see anyone.

If she wasnt pregnant (even though she would have never said that had she not been but...) I'd punch her in the mouth. Grrr. DH just thinks I need to get over it... he can be insensitive too.

I'm sorry. I'd be really pissed too!

I take back what I said before your SIL seems like a snot.  I am sorry.  Not to get more personal than you want but I assume you have been seeing a doctor if you have been trying for three years? Does she and MIL know that you and DH have been struggling with TTC for so long?

eah- HUGS!  I'm sorry for this hard situation.  Are you seeing anyone or taking anything for depression?

Yeah, I spoke to my Dr about it. He gave me a RX for Wellbutrin, but I'm trying to get well the healthy way by trying to work out and such. I try not to put anything in my body but my prenatal vitamins. I get it from my dad... he's a DC so everything is natural.

 

Thanks for the hugs. All I can do for now is pray for a BFP so I can use my hormones as an excuse to be a b!tch right back to her. (Among other things too, of course)

SIL knows we have been trying... MIL doesnt. I told SIL right after they found out they were having one about how I was really sad and depressed and of course she didnt seem to care much, which doesnt make much sense to me since they tried for a few years after their first one. Sheer ignorance and selfishness. Period.

I'm so sorry. Hugs to you!

Mrs.Umm

I'm so sorry your SIL is such a douchebag. I have a hard enough time with my pregnant SIL, and she's pretty sensitive about it. I can't imagine what you must be going through.

((HUGS))

I am so sorry.

I had almost the exact same thing happen to me like SIL got pregnant and then announced that she was naming her baby Reigh-Lynn and she knew what was what my husband and I always wanted to name our daughter (when we had one) because Ray was my grandfathers name and my middle name. Lynn is my sisters, MIL and mother middle name...very weird. It does hurt so bad! But what can you do some people are just so selfish and stubborn.

UGH! I dont understand why people have to be that way. Grr.

I told my MIL that I was still going to name my baby(if i ever have one) Claire... plain and simple. If they want their babies middle name to be the same as my little ones first... that's fine but dont be pissd off or surprised when it happens!

Thanks for all the love! Finished wrapping them and they are back in the closet where they have been for over a month now. One 1 more week and I can get them out of my house and off of my mind.
