    So I realized that this is dumb but I'm still upset. I just found out that every single person, other than me and one sister, who attended my bachelorette was pregnant. The other two who I was happily not pregnant with have recently found out that they are 8 and 9 weeks.

    HOW? Grrr.

    Sorry - I guess I left off the part that I'm very afraid I won't be able to get pregnant.

    And 4 of those girls got pregnant completely by accident.

    I'm jealous. I can admit it.

    sorry, i'm not following why it would be upsetting either. did it put a damper on the drinking and party? i hope the two that didnt know didnt have too much to drink!

    edit, didnt see your post in time.  do you have a reason to fear that you cant?

    We're officially trying. My husband is 47. I have PCOS as well as some other issues. We're giving it until the end of the year and then will be speaking with doctor. I'm trying to take it is but reality is, I want it to be October 20th already - I will definitely be late if I don't start by then. I'm just ready.

    My husband I aren't ready to start trying for a couple more months, (he's confident we'll get pregnant right away, and I am afraid it will take a long time).  And it seems like all of my friends and coworkers are tuning up pregnant.  Major jealousy here, so I understand where you're coming from!  I don't WANT to be, but I can't seem to help it.  I have seriously been tempted to block or unfriend a couple of my Facebook friends because of it, and then I feel worse for even thinking that way.

    *hugs*

    I actually no longer speak to one of them. She actually just became the most selfish bitch when she got pregnant and I vow NOT to do that!

    Anyway I dont know how long you have been TTC but everybody is different just try to stay positive, I dont think feeling annoyed or resentment towards your friends will help you any.

    I'm sorry you are feeling this way. I understand the jealousy part, we've ALL been there. But if they are YOUR friends you should be happy for them.

    My husband and I were both convinced that we would have fertility issues. We went 8 years with the "pull out" method and never once had an accident. We actively TTC for 9 cycles and after much heartache finally got a BFP. I've been where you are, "you don't know where I am. I just KNOW we're going to have issues."

    But you truly never know until you try.

    And please cut your friends some slack! They are pregnant and their hormones are all over the place. Just like you need a friend through TTC they need a friend through pregnancy as well. Someone that cuts them some slack. It's ALL stressful.

    And btw there are ladies on here who have PCOS like you and some even with other issues on top of it. And have been successful in getting pregnant. There's a HUGE support system on here, make use of them. These ladies are a wealth of knowledge and support.

    Im sorry you are feeling down. Just try to be happy for them in their baby bliss, and Im sure they will do the same for you when your time comes around!! As for you being afraid you wont be able to get pregnant, dont stress about it until you know for sure. I think a lot of times couples that stress out and put so much pressure on themselves about getting pregnant have a harder time. Your body is stressed when you are stressed and that doenst help, I truly believe with actual medical issues aside that is why so many woman get pregnant by accident. Right or wrong thats just what I think. So dont stress. This is supposed to be a happy time for you hun!! You will get to that point soon!!

    The friend that started being a raging bitch... there have been times before when I wondered why I was friends with her. I genuinely enjoyed spending time with her but the caddiness, judging, and talking down to people go to me - and it got worse when she found out she was pregnant. We work in the same industry but different companies and people I work with even commented to me about how ugly she's gotten (inside...).

    I'm trying to stay positive. It kinda just felt like a slap in the face to want something so bad and to know all these people get it without even trying. I know, most of you totally understand what this feels like. I'll be okay.

    {{Hugs}} I know you don't want to be that girl who's jealous of other people's blessings, or take anything away from their happiness. But I know how it feels to watch everyone else get what you want, especially when you're afraid you may not ever be able to have it. I'm a month out from my wedding, and we are planning on waiting to TTC for 3 years after marriage. But I get a sick feeling in my stomach when one of my friends finds out she's pregnant. I'm diabetic, and I am fairly sure it will be difficult for me to conceive too. It sucks though, because we're not even going to try for a few more years (so I'll spend these years wondering if I can, but having no idea). Hang in there hun! I'm thinking about you :)
