So another friend of mine,same age, just put pictures on FB of her baby girl she just had today.

Dang I wish I didn't feel so envious......Feel horrible for feeling this way.  ok I am having a serious pitty party, sorry.

Don't feel so bad - we've all been there. Sometimes it helps just to let yourself feel that way.

I feel that way all the time when I see that happen.  Hang in there.  I had my pity party last night and it consisted of tearing up my punching bag and then enjoying a margarita.

*Chicken*

I could probably deal with how long it's taken us to TTC if it wasn't for the bitterness/sadness/jealousy.  I really think that is the worst part of this whole TTC process....well other than the miscarriages and not having a baby yet.

{sigh} I know the feeling.  Two friends of mine who are older than me recently announced their pregnancies on FB.  Just remember, someday soon that will be you posting pictures, and you still have that to look forward to! Hang in there....

Seriously?!?! Don't feel bad. I've recently had to "hide" a couple of girls b/c of all the pregnancy updates and ultrasound photos. Going to the baby shower of a really good friend (who I am truly happy for) was one thing, but daily updates of acquaintances on FB...too much!

It's ok to feel that way...(as far as I'm concerned)!

Hi there! I find it funny when my friends change their FB profile pic into a photo of their 3 month old baby - I wonder where my friend has disappeared to!! It's another world, mama-world! Hopefully we will all be there one day too...

*clink* *clink* Cheers!!! I have been pity partying all weekend long....this is the most dismal 2WW ever.

I am so tired of all the happy pregos around me with their sonograms and their registries! Beat it~ I really don't know sometimes where I get the strength to plaster that upbeat, faux smile on my face and keep on keepin on....

So, hide your FB friends, and try to keep on moving forward. I will POAS next Saturday, unless AF brings her gifts early and see what happens....thanks for being here to vent and allowing me to know that I am not alone.I hope we all get happy news for ourselves too!!

I too know how much this sucks (two good friends just had babies in the last week).  I'll say just one thing that makes me a feel a little better, though: sometimes you just don't know what someone has been through before getting her BFP and announcing it to the world.  For example, I was all jealous of a good friend of mine's toddler, and then I learned my friend had had five m/c, two before and three after she had her daughter.  Another friend had two sons and had had a m/c in between that I didn't learn about until after I had my m/c.  Another had a m/c before having her first child that I never heard about until recently.  And a friend who had her 2nd last week had 3 m/c, one of them at 12 weeks and really traumatic, before this successful pregnancy.  Not that I'm saying anyone should take comfort in other people's pain, just that sometimes, those same people who are so happy on FB may well have been in the position we're in right now, or worse.

All that said: it totally sucks.
