I am just a little upset so i thought i would post it here and share with you guys. two of my coworkers just had a baby and two more just found out they are pregnant. it just upsets me because i want it to be my turn.
I understand. It can be frustrating when it appears that everyone around you is pregnant and you are not. Allow yourself a few minutes to wallow, and then keep the following in mind.
1. You have no idea what those people may have gone through to get their baby. Perhaps it was just as frustrating for them.
2. Just because they are having babies, it doesn't mean you lost your turn. The universe doesn't keep track like that.
3. For the VAST majority of us, it WILL happen eventually. Enjoy the process. I was on here 2 years ago, but had to stop TTC because DH lost his job. It is incredibly inspiring to see many of the same folks on here trying for #2 now.
One of my best friends was in a very similar situation. One of her co workers found out she was pregnant and my friend had been trying for about 8 months. Well one month later she found out she was pregnant too and now she's 10 weeks! Keep your head up!
I know how you're feeling. I have friends due in Feb, June, July, Aug, and Oct. I try to remind myself that it's not a race, and it will work out when it's the RIGHT time for us.
To make it a positive experience, I'm trying to take each month it doesn't happen to learn more about the science and more about my body...
i'm sorry you're upset. i know we all want it to happen sooner than later... but i actually find solace when i hear people are pregnant or read about bfp's. it reminds me that for most of us, just with some time, it will happen!
I'm sorry you're feeling down but try to remember that this isn't a race towards a limited number of babies that can be born. There aren't turns to be taken and their getting pregnant has no impact on you doing the same. Good luck!

If you're going to let it upset you then you might want to consider becoming a shut-in. FYI there are pregnant people and babies everywhere!

Yep. A lot of my friends are pregnant or just had a baby and I'm very happy for them. And I do notice pregnant women but I don't let it get to me. If I did every time it would be tiring.

Good luck, and chin up
This is such great advice!
OP - I know what you mean, it's frustrating. This week I found out about a friend's pregnancy on Monday, a co-workers pregnancy on Tuesday, and a BFN Wednesday. I think feeling like this reminds me that when I eventually am KU (hopefully soon), I'll be careful not to be excessive or rub it in to those who may be TTC.

I understand the jealousy. However, NO ONE is taking YOUR turn. The state of someone else's uterus does not impact yours.
This!

О Привязать! Z!
I hate that saying. It's right up there with relax. Go on vacation. Get wasted and you'll get KU.
No matter how long you have been trying, a BFN is always frustrating. Just be happy for them and KEEP TTC' ing.
