Just thought of this today. Time goes by so fast.... well, not during the TWW, but, in general, it does. My friend's kids grow up so fast and my pregnant friends are delivering babies like tomorrow when it seems like they announced yesterday.
I need to figure out how to stop time or find a time machine.

Yup
My niece will be 3 next month, and I just have this huge fear that they're gonna conceive again AND give birth before I even get one We started trying when she was 4 months old. (3 MCs.)

Yes! I feel like IRL, everyone is popping out kids but me. While I don't wish this on anyone, it is nice to have you ladies and feel less alone.

Ha seriously! Sometimes I stop to think how old my kid would be if I had gotten KU that first month TTC (18 months old) and I wonder where the time is going. Womp womp

Yup, I hear ya. I should be working on a second now like so many people who started trying the same time or after me actually are, not my first still

Totally agree with you. I've got so many friends who started trying after we did & they're already pregnant or Already have their take home babies.

@TheSwissWifeStyle: Ugh, man I wish I had your strength. I don't know how you do it. I think it's so hard when family members are pregnant.
@ameliabedilia: I totally agree. Sometimes I feel so alone IRL.
I feel like I get so emotional when my close friends or family members announce. The terrible part of me just can't get excited for them....I feel guilty about just saying that, but it's the truth.

Seriously! I could have an almost 2 year old at this point... I try not to go down this rabbit hole too often but yeah it sucks

I'm sorry...
I felt like that too while we were trying. I had a friend get engaged about 3 months after we started trying, married a year later and their first kid was born before I managed to get pregnant, and I totally remember being like "how the heck did that happen?!". Living life as two weeks "waiting to try" and two weeks "waiting to find out if it worked" mad made me a little crazy. Best wishes and baby dust to you all!

I know what you mean. I feel like when you are TTC you get 1 chance a month and then have to start all over where being pregnant or having babies every week is a big milestone for them.

I completely agree with you. All my friends that got married years after me have had kids now too...*sigh*

there's so much truth in the title of this post...
It's hard not to measure and compare ourselves to friends and family when it comes to life events...I have no advice on how not to do this. It really is hard.
