Everyone I know has now lapped me

I found out about 2 new pregnancies in people I know today, including one whose first child is around 15 months younger than DS. I now can't think of a single person I know who was going to have more kids that doesn't already have a new baby or is pregnant. I have been left in the dust as everyone completes another lap around the baby track.
Yesterday I was having a great day, feeling super-positive, and now today I'm back in the dumps. Sorry for the vent and thanks for listening.

"Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..."
We had 2 years of IF trying to conceive #2 and one loss during that time. We are currently trying for #3! had another loss the end of June

Miracle DD born 12.2005
TTC #2 since Dec 2008 w/ PCOS
***P/SAIF Always Welcome***
Keep it Natural, Baby!
TTC #2, Operative hysteroscopy March 2011; IVF #1 long lupron protocol April 2011-cancelled due to poor response; IVF #2 flare protocol May 2011=hospitalization due to abdominal hemorrhage during ER and no fert due to MFI issues. Moving onto international adoption from Moldova January 2013!
I am right there with you. I walked by a guy from high school in the mall on the weekend, and his pregnant g/f. I logged onto my facebook with my high school peers on it for the first time in months and people I didn't even know were pregnant had baby photos (of their kids) up.
Sometimes I am even bummed on here when people that were trying for #2 at the same time as me are now back trying for #3 (or expecting #3 already). I am thrilled they got their baby #2 and excited for them to get #3, just feel like I should have had my turn by now.
I found out yesterday a friend at our playgroup is unexpectedly expecting. I told her if she considers adoption to consider us. It made me sad (again) that some people can do it without even trying. All I can try to do is have faith about my upcoming cycle.
"Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..."
We are to the point that alot of people have lapped us twice. I have ONE facebook friend, an old friend from years ago, who had her first child the same month we had our son. She has yet to have another baby, and I have a feeling she would like one, too. If she ever announces that she's pregnant, we will be lapped by every single couple we know.

I'm lapped by everyone, too.
Even people on this board who I was at one point cycle buddies with are in their 3rd tri. I am so happy for them, but I do remember being their cycle buddy.
On my home/local board, since TTC#2, one particular woman has gone from wondering if she should TTC#3 to conceiving, having a m/c, getting pregnant again, and being due in 2 weeks. That one hurts. Not for her, I'm thrilled for her, she's a great mom. But for me. It sucks.for.me.
I hear you Twizzle, and I'm so sorry.
