I feel you! Many hugs. While I am pregnant now, when I was going through infertility in 1 year alone I had 17 friends/ coworkers announce they were pregnant or had a baby. I wanted to crawl in my bed and die each day. I stopped leaving my house, going to parties, anything i just lived in a dark hole and was so miserable I could barely function, and DH had a hard time understanding which made it worse- he understood yet told me I just need to be happy for people- I am happy for those people but I couldn't be around anyone. I literally distanced myself from my BIL and SIL (they are crazy anyway) and all family events because my niece was born. I didn't hold her really interact or care to even see her, and the worse part is- I have my babies coming soon, and I still can't even be around other people and their babies. My one friend had a second just a few weeks ago and why I don't know- she didn't want the first, her husband wanted a second so she literally tried one month and got pregnant- lucky her, and to this very moment it kills me when she says it. The pain just never goes away. I'm so sorry your feeling down. I always treated myself as often as I felt necessary, it didn't help much but did a little. Hugs to you! You aren't alone!!

Re: no words

oh..dear...it is rough. you want to be happy and way down you probably are, but the why me prevails.

it is normal. and OK to feel that way; no one understands the battle or the scars unless they've been through it. we are here for you!!

I have a DS already. but # 2 isnt going to happen. numerous inseminations, 2 Failed IVF's and my age have proven that to be the case. and honestly b/c I already have a kid, doesnt make IVF hurt any less. My Dh was always like "well look we have a child..we can be like so and so who hasnt yet." and I agree. to a point. It doesnt make the pill any easier to swallow. it doesnt make the chemical pregnancies, miscarriage and BFN's any easier.

My son is in 1st grade. Im 37. there are moms in his class that are just turning 30, 31, and already have a 6 and 7 yr old, have more than one kid..they've been having babies since they're 23 yrs old. 3 of the moms in his class are on their 3rd and 4th babies at the moment. Its NUTS. and I want to crawl under a rock some days when I see them, or when people ask if Jack is an only..like why does it F**king matter?

its a total mind F**k thats for sure.

im sorry. Chat Icon Chat Icon

I can relate to every word and feel every ounce of your pain. We are in such a weird place with having a child but being unable to have another. It's like we don't belong in any group!. You are also right that having one doesn't make the pill any easier to swallow. Just wanted u to know you're not alone.

Oh I know the feeling. There have been so many pregnancy announcements since we've been trying. It would kill a piece of me every time. Last year my SIL and two closest cousins were pregnant. All 3 of them are like sisters to me. It hurt so bad but I love all their kids. You are not alone ... I'm so sorry....

I know exactly how you feel. I was TTC for 2.5 years, and finally got pregnant. I thought once I was pregnant I would fell better about it all, but the pain of infertility never seems to leave you. I still find myself very sensitive about all this. My heart goes out to you, many many hugs!
