I feel like Selfish Sally but i still hate that everyone is making a big fuss over my cousins pregnancy and that somehow its going to take away from me Embarrassed I also hate that my SIL has banned everyone from visiting her until her MS goes away. I just feel like she is using this pg as a crutch and an excuse.

JnJ62406 · March 2011

So my rant/gripe is AF started in full force today and I am hating every minute of it!!!! I want to start my IVF cycle already but have to wait a whole month!!!

Have a great weekend ladies!!!

I hate listening to friends/Facebook friends whine about pregnancy nausea/backpain/sleeplessness. I would give anything for that...

I hate that my eggs got old and didn't give me the heads up

I hate when you hint that you have a fertility dx and somone oh so helpfully says "oh yeah, I had issues (or my friend, my sister) and she took Clomid (insert other drug/tx) and she got pregnant". Yes, that can happen. But infertility doesn't mean you don't ovulate - I O just fine but my eggs are crusty. People think they are so wise.

I thought I had gotten through the worst of the IF business...and now I might have thyroid cancer. How much else can I really be expected to manage?

I hate IF.

That made me laugh out loud. What if it lasts for the whole pregnancy??

my rant would be I want to see an RE NOW!! we've only been ttc since nov 2010 and just got dx with PCOS 3/2/11 but since I am not overweight and not IR...my OBGYN has no answers except to say to try for a couple more months on our own and she can give me a referral to see an RE then (I mean she said she can give it now..) but I felt like she was making me feel guilty for wanting to go now or figure stuff out!? After my DX she said we could have a phone appt. to discuss everything and she would order my IR testing..after a week of not hearing from her and me msging her like 3 times she calls be at 6:30 pm.."Sorry to call you after so long, I'm on vacation but I wanted to take the time out..I mean I'm concerned about YOUR anxiet, just relax, I know plenty of women that got pg w/ PCOS, just try a few more cycles, stop stressing over everything, you are young you have LOTS of time"

BAH! She is ALWAYS on vacation, I can never get a hold of her, she makes me feel dumb for wanting to see an RE now AND my PCP had to order the IR b/c my OBGYN never requested for her too, I did! eesh! ::whew:: okay, done

Aww booo on AF!! Sorry hun, hope this next month IVF is on track on you get your BFP!!! I now hear by order you to slack off all weekend, eat as much chocolate as possible and wear sweats like they're this springs new thang! LOL

jesselayne8 · March 2011

Why do I look at facebook???? I dont need to see pics of your baby titled Month 1, Month 2, Month 3 etc. I dont care that you have heartburn or swollen ankles. One girl actually wrote "its days like these that I hate being a parent". Ugh (its my new favorite word).

Amen sistah!! I remember I posted this thing once about all the women on 1st tri and their gripes about MS, back pain etc..and I was like "I totally sympathize with them all, I'm sure going thru all that is so tough but....I WOULD KILL FOR ALL THAT if it meant that I was PG!!"

They all got mad at me and started posting on my post about how I was calling them big fat whiners..which I didnt... ::sigh:: I know what you mean girl...I know what you mean...

zookbride · March 2011

I'm so pissed that I didn't get AF Wed. or Thurs...I'm trying to hold out hope that now she'll wait to visit until at least Sunday. I hate that IF makes us have to have a perfect schedule...and if not than we have to wait longer to cycle.

I'm trying to stay positive and know that 1 more cycle waiting is not going to hurt me and I've been looking forward to this trip to visit my brother since the first of the year...so I can't help that it just so happened to land on the weekend I *may* start my period.

However, since I can't even tell if I actually ovulated...I may be in for a big surprise and be riding out another long, never ending cycle... I guess we'll see.

I hate that my body doesn't want to work right...its so frustrating!! Angry

((Huge hugs)) Don't start thinking the worst yet, Kathy. I know its hard not to go there...but you did say in your other post its a 15% chance right? That means there's and 85% that there is no cancer.

I'm praying super hard for you!!

I truly hate that IF exists and how it affects us all. I also really hate those stark white BFNs. I hate how most insurances won't cover IF treatments and meds.

I think I am just angry about IF today Angry

Those three things are definitely high on my gripe list too! Boo!!

Oh hun, I know your mind is just swirling with bad thoughts but try not to think that way. I am praying that the nodules are non-cancerous!!

I agree.

I hate how I feel so disconnected to the board lately b/c of our break. I hate this feeling.

I had called to pay my balance at the RE's office and my balance got higher cause insurance didn't cover x,y,and z so that's where my griping came from today!

softbalangel · March 2011

I hate that my IF might be coming between my BFF and I. She is currently pregnant and I am so excited for her and her husband. They will be great parents. However, lately I feel like she is pulling away and it hurts.

c&n06 · March 2011

I hate IF and just ready for some good news already. I hate feeling like it is never going to happen but then can never imagine my life w/o a child in it. I hate that it feels like it happens so easily for everyone on facebook and everywhere you turn someone else is pregnant. UGH!

Glowconsin · March 2011

I CAN'T stand this stupid BCP related headache anymore. It wouldn't be so bad if it was just a small annoying headache, but this is like "I want to smash my head on the desk in an attempt to alleviate the throbbing" pain.

RE Nurse said we could start over with another BCP, but I was like "helll no" I just want to plow through this. 6 more days to go....

aww that does not sound fun. Sorry I hate BCP so much! I have 2 days left. I feel bloated, boobs so sore for 3 weeks so ready for it to be over. I hope you get some relief soon.

TotallyLoCo · March 2011

I hate that every time I find out that friend or family member is pregnant (which has happened 4 times in the last month!), instead of being super happy for them the way I would have in the past, the very first emotion I experience is jealousy, followed by sadness. I hate feeling like a selfish person because I can't truly revel in the happiness of someone I care about. In addition to many other things, IF has taken that joy away from me.

tshott · March 2011

I can't understand for the life of me why the women on here get so bent out of shape with the term "preggers" but are perfectly fine with the term "KU".

Jewlz018 · March 2011

IF SUCKS!

That's the extent of the rant I have the energy for today after yesterday. Still feeling so defeated.

MrsVo · March 2011

The new thing among my FB friends? Fake pregnancy announcements. News flash: Sh*t aint funny. Uggghhh.

PiNKCupcakes · March 2011

I hate how all the IF meds have made my face break out like I am a pizza faced 16 year old!! It would be fine if it was followed by a BFP. But no!! I am a 30 something with crazy acne that makeup no longer covers.

I feel the exact same way!! I am not a selfish person in nature, but lately, I have to distance myself from pregnant friends until I am emotionally OK to be around them. I am so very happy for them, but I just want to cry my eyes out and scream!!

GL to you!!

I admit it. I'm one of those people. I think for me, the reason why I can't stand the word "preppers" or "preggo" is because it's so cutsie. I'm not a particularly cutsie type. I also get uppity when people actually say "OMG". Just reminds me of something a 12 year old would say.

tmsetzer83 · March 2011

This is my first flame free rant over here on 3t, so here goes!

I am so unbelievably frustrated that my body won't just do what it is supposed to do. I am an u/s tech and I scan people all day long who have beautiful functioning ovaries. It drives me crazy!!!

ChicagoWeded2007 · March 2011

Why does Dh have to have too many drinks before I get home when I am ovulating? I would like to get pregnant. Without an IUI or IVF we kind of have to have sex to get pregnant.

cacklemonsta · March 2011

I hate living in Canada sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I love my country, but the wait time for and RE here is ridiculous! We're on 6 months now of waiting. I hope to get a call soon.

I hate how every little symptom I have after I O makes me think I am pg. It happens every month, but every month I still get my hopes up.

I hate how jealous I am of everyone elses pregnancies and babies and children.

I hate hating things. Before all of this IF crap I was such an optimistic happy person who liked everything.

romigu · March 2011

i think its annoying when everyone asks me when i'm going to get pregnant already. ummm....i'm TRYING a$$holes.
