TTC After a Loss

Why does this make me mad ?

So in the past week I have had 2 friends tell me they stopped their BC pills . For some reason this makes me mad at them . I know I'm completely irrational but I will be devastated if they get pregnant right off the bat . We have been trying for 11 months now with one mc in January . I just feel like it's my turn , dang it ! Thanks for listening !

Re: Why does this make me mad ?

  • ::hugs:: I feel the same way. I really felt awful after I was blindsided by my friends second pregnancy. She told DH and I first with #1 and then found out through a facebook video about #2.  I have been trying for number 1 since before she found out about#1. It just stings.

    We deserve our sticky babies.

  • I understand how you feel!! I have a friend who told me they've "kind of started trying" (whatever that means) and I know I'll be upset if it happens within a very short time period. It's normal!!!! I'm sorry you're feeling that way, though.. never fun. :(  (((hugs)))

  • Feeling this way is completely normal. But even though it's normal, it still sucks. Hopefully they won't get KU right away and you get your BFP soon. Feel free to rant on here anytime.

  • ((hugs)) I completely understand. Back when DH and I had been trying for about a year I let my SILs in on the secret. Then the one SIL got pregnant about 2 months after telling them right after going off BC (I was pissed at the time but I love that little girl as my own and I really miss my SIL and I hate that I spent so much time angry and jealous of her only to lose her a month after my niece was born) then a couple months later, right before my loss, my StepMIL announced she was pregnant.. BC fail.. I love DH's baby brother but it is hard to look at him knowing I should have a baby that was a little under a month younger then him.. We have been on this road for almost 3 year.. well we are on a break now for a few years.. but I totally get where your coming from hon.

  • I totally get how you feel. I've been ttc for 11 months too. My cousin is getting married in September, and my BIL next month. I know they both plan on starting to ttc right away and I feel like if they get pregnant before me I'll be a failure. I know it's not true, but it kind of stings.

  • I totally understand. Today has been a bit of a struggle for me. I would have been exactly 12 weeks today. And instead of enjoying my own pregnancy, i'm stuck ready what seems like everyone's facebook updates on their current pregnancy (which includes their ultrasound pics, belly pics, and complaints of back pain, blah blah blah). It's not that I have ill feelings towards them, it's just that it hurts.

  • Do they know about your loss... my bff told me after my ectopic that she and her DH were starting in May... and then i had another loss after that... and she a BFP on her first try in May... shes got her first appointment tomorrow...

    She told me because she wanted to give me a heads up... she also told me the day after her BFP as a heads up... i appreciated it instead of just being one of the masses that found out on FB...

  • I would be right there with you..By BIL just recently started dating a girl and they are already talking wedding, babies and baby names...aside from wanting to give them a quick smack..It bothers me that they are so casual about the talk like they will have no problems...It is irrational, but if they were to get pregnant before we do, I would be devastated...

    As I read on someones blog recently.."Today I am bitter, tomorrow I will be better" I forget who so I can't give the credit for the quote, but it resonated with me...

  • I'm right there with you.  I think its only natural.  A family member told us recently that she had "finally" talked her husband into letting her have another baby (number 3).  I'm now worried she will end up pregnant before me since they only have to look at each other across the room to get KU.  I feel like screaming "Can I just have this be all about me for a little while?"  A part of me feels very selfish for thinking this but the other part doesn't.
