Ok, so I normally try really hard not to be jealous of all my FB friends that are PG or have 1 or 2 babies, but this totally made me want to cry.
A classmate from HS, who is my age (24), just announced she is PG with number 4!!! WTF? I don't even have one yet, and you have 4!
I wish I was lucky enough to just become pregnant any old time I wanted to.

Re: FB vent
A girl I went to HS with has 6 or 7 and I wouldn't want to trade places with her for anything in the world. Being a young mom, she struggled and Right now she can barely keep up.
I know it sucks and we wish it was us that was pregnant, but when I see something like that, I think about how happy I am to have been able to afford a big wedding and travel and buy a home that we love. Some people have what you want and other people probably want what you have. I'm sorry it upset you, but it will happen for you.
Very true, you have such a good perspective. I certainly wouldn't want to have that many so young (that's just me)! And I am thankful that my DH and I have been able to travel and buy a house and become financially stable prior to getting KU.
OMG! I know how you feel....my younger sisters friends just had their 5th!
Sorry girly...it's definitely a punch to the gut when you see stuff like that.
Good Point!
BFP 12/10/10 - DD1 8/16/11
BFP 10/29/13 - c/p 11/2/13
BFP 11/29/13 - DD2 7/18/14
BFP 3/20/18 - DS1 due 12/2/18
I thought about that too. We just bought a house and a new car, and we both have wonderful jobs. I wouldn't be in the place I am now if I hadn't waited, but it still just kinda hurts to see so many people my age with their families already. I just have to remind myself that we are at the best place we can be in right now to add to our family.
Thanks girls!

Ugh, I know what you mean. Though it is important to remember where you are, and how you worked to get here. Everything will fall in plcae.
Right?
