Can I whine for a quick minute? (TTC related)

YaraC · January 2011

So this morning I got AF after our first month of TTC after my miscarriage in Nov. I wasn't surprised since I was ovulating right at the time our whole house a stomach bug and houseguests. Not a lot was happening.

But also today two, (two!!!) of my good friends told me they are unexpectedly pregnant with babies due right at the time the one I lost would have been due.

Can you say twisting the knife in the wound?

OK. Whine over. On to the next month.

I am a whiner at least once a month when flo comes around. Why can't it just happen? Why do I need assistance getting pregnant.

Sorry to hear about your miscarraige. I must have missed that post. Good luck to you.

I totally get it, and you can whine all you want!

Even though I'm happy for the ladies on this board who are pregnant, I'm secretly jealous of them. It took DH and I 4 years to conceive (w/the help of an RE) Thomas; and this month was our first cycle going through RE again. Unfortunately, I got a BFN yesterday. Seeing not pregnant on the test hurts just as much as the first time before we had Thomas. (I cried in bed). Anyways, it makes me love Thomas even that much more when I see BFN!

Me too, on to next month!

I completely understand where you are coming from. I'm sorry for your disappointment!

My first miscarriage occured when I was 17 weeks along. A friend of mine was pregnant at the same time and we were do within days of each other. I remember going to her baby shower. I had to leave early because I got upset. I was happy for her, but like you said it was like a knife in the wound.

I totally understand. After I had my Oct'09 m/c, I found out my SIL was preg. with same due date I would have had (my nephew is now 8 months old and is very cute!). Hang in there, it will happen.

I can empathize - those conflicted feelings really suck. You can be honest about it here as many of us can understand.

I hear you, everyone around me is pregnant. This month we BD'd only once (yeah, it's that often these days

, plus we're not 100% TTC yet), but it was around O time so I was hopeful. But with all the stress I've had lately, I wasn't surprised to get AF on Monday. And this month PMS has hit me like a ton of bricks, which it hadn't since Adrian's birth. Kind of like the universe laughing at me... ha ha, not only are you not pregnant but here's some extra PMS symptoms for ya, ha ha!! Ugh. I hope we both have better luck soon ((hugs))

I totally understand. We had been TTC for 9 month and it took an RE for us this time too before it finally happened. I was also happy and jealous for anybody who got pregnant. Good luck to you all!
