Whose pregnancy and TTC announcements are harder for you?

    My coworker just announced to the office yesterday that she's due the same exact week in January that I would have been before I miscarried :-(. I'm not a jealous person but I definitely feel it today.

    I forgot this one - DH's cousin's wife is pregnant with #3. They can't afford #1 or #2 but is having #3 and is excited to get more money from the state (yes, she said that).

    I feel like I'm the only one left out of my friends without a baby or that isn't pregnant. It's hard because I have no one to talk about it that can know from experience how depressing and emotionally hard it is to go through!

    @TheSwissWifeStyle: thank you! It's even hard to talk to a doctor about it because I am young and EVERYONE always tells me that I have plenty of time and I know that but still they don't understand!

    @TheSwissWifeStyle: I've been off bc for 3 years but just because i didn't like how they made me feel. But have really been trying for 2 years.

    @TheSwissWifeStyle: I've been trying to find one. And there's one that my friend has used with both her pregnancies that ive seen once and i really likes her but of course they don't take my insurance! But I did see a doctor (that I really did not like ) last week and she ordered some tests to see if I am ovulating and everything starting with my next cycle.

    Feel like bumping my old thread. My sister just made it FB official with her pregnancy annoucement. Ugh! Oh, what I would do right now to be pregnant. The wait to do IVF is really getting at me. I just want skip over these next few months.

    @bluestriped bee:

    I find non-family harder. When I'm having my most emotional days, I actually find it helpful to visit my SIL and love on her kids (I came REALLY close to taking one home last time though!)

    The people who've just met/just married are harder for me. DH and I have been together for 8.5 years.

    I find random strangers, especially teenagers, the hardest.

    @bluestriped bee: Oh that feeling is so hard...I remember when I found out my sister was pregnant right as we were on the cusp of our last natural cycle and our first clomid cycle. Feel everything you are feeling. It's valid, and important to process. We're all here for you! (ps...I will write more soon!)

    @sweetooth: Yeah, my sister already told me of her BFP weeks ago and we (my family) are already talking about her baby shower. But seeing it posted on FB just brought all those emotions of jealousy back again. I might be having a hard time with all this waiting for IVF. I might have to hide my sister and bunch of other newly pregnant friends.

    I hate to be babied but I kinda wished I got a slight heads up from my sister. I know it's unreasonable. Just trying to figure out how I could have reacted differently.

    @bluestriped bee: I am loving the hide feature on Facebook. I still see things that sting occasionally that I didn't expect, but at least otherwise I can go looking for the new babies when I'm prepared for it and I'm not bombarded daily!

    I also LOVE the friends who've set up the private groups to share photos instead of posting them constantly on their own timelines. Then I can go see them on my own time and they don't fill my feed.
