Infertility
I really feel like crying right now
I am so upset. Well, first of all, yesterday was 1 year since my m/c, so it was a hard day. Then yesterday I find out that a friend I didn't expect to be pregnant was pregnant. I'm thrilled for her but it was hard to hear.
Well today I get online and see an email from my mom. My cousin, who has no job, no education, is on welfare, boyfriend (baby daddy) is in jail and they are together anymore, she lives with her mom who is also broke, no money and has a lot of medical issues including depression, just found out she is pregnant for the 2nd time. She also has HPV which progressed into cervical cancer. Her daughter just turned 2.
I am devastated. How is it that SHE can get pregnant but I can't??? What is wrong with me? Why is this happening? It has been hard between last week and this week. Very, very hard. We are one, maybe 2 cycles away from going on a break until next year so we can save money. Why did we do everything right and we aren't able to have kids, but she didn't do it right, and my brother didn't do it right and they are having kids. I am half expecting another pregnancy announcement to come from my brother and his gf (in a similar situation as my cousin, minus the jail thing).
It isn't fair. I feel awful right now.

Re: I really feel like crying right now
I'm crying for you.. I know how you feel (minus the m/c) i have about 12 friends that either have newborns, are about to give birth, early pregnant and are trying to get pregnant. Everyday someone has some sort of news that is trying on my emotions.
hang in there..
It sucks how so many of us do the right things, do them in order, and we're the ones that get stuck with IF.
It's just not fair. I don't have any words of wisdom, but know that you're not alone. ((hugs))
