in Trouble TTC

decided to finally start being a little vocal about this ... today was a bit of "straw that broke the camels back" moment (AGAIN).  seems to happen in sets of 3 for me. It seems I find out 3 friends with in a week are pregnant nearly every couple months.  some call me all i can tell they're nervous to tell me "don't be upset" ... one of my closets friends that i've shared some of this with even had the nerve to say 'oh i can give you loads of tips b/c it took us forever" (took them 7 months)  I wanted to scream ... Really WTF you know how long i've been trying. 

anyway i'm heading into year 3 of TTC. no positive results. general testing is 'normal'.  Yet, friends are getting knocked up all around me, some so fast that they are on #2 before their 1st is even a year old. 

some months i'm just totally over it and ready to throw in the towel ... scared to death to actually go to an IF specialist with the fear of finding out the worst. 

other months i'm mostly fine and jokingly say 'hey i'm just waiting for you all to finish so that you can hand me down all the goodies"  ... which is not totally a lie! ha! 

anyway ... i know you all understand so just thought i'd say hello.

    Hello & welcome. I'm sorry to hear that you've been trying for so long and are frustrated. You are not alone! 

    To change your avatar & siggy you can click on "my bump" and then above your avatar there are clicky's to edit those items. It sounds strange, but in order to save anything in your siggy, you have to click the save button ten times in a row really fast... not kidding! GL

    Hello, I am so sorry you are having trouble and find yourself here. I really hope you make an appt with an RE because 3 years is long enough!! You may find out you haven't been ovulating and they can give you medicine to help. It is scarey to finally get help because it is admitting there is a problem, but I think it's worth looking into. I am sorry you are going through a hard time with pregnancy announcements. This board is great support and we knows exactly what you are going through a feeling. GL!
