Everybody's pregnant

My cousin's wife, a close friend, and a girl in my office at work...found about all 3 in the past 7 days.

It seems like every day I have to process another happy announcement. 2 of them preggers in 3 months. 2 of them more than 5 years older than me. I want to be happy for them, but my bitterness and jealousy runneth over.

With facing months of now trying on our own again, like some sick joke, I have really been losing it. I'm under so much pressure at work and I can't even concentrate on all that needs to be done. I spent so much time crying over the weekend...til i was puffy and exhausted with a pounding headache.

What the he11 is wrong with me? Chat Icon

Nothin is wrong with you!! this is a curse of infertility! you want to be happy for others but our own jealousy and insecurity ruins this. I feel this on a daily basis... please know you have support and your not crazy!!

Re: Everybody's pregnant

I totally know how you feel!! In the course of a week I found out three of my friends (one a very close friend I work with) were pregnant. One of them literally just got married. I am having some serious issues. I also want to be happy for them, but am overcome with sadness whenever I am near them. It's a "why not me?" thing. I wrote my friend a work with a letter and explained my feelings the best I could. There's no easy answer...just know that you are a good person and it is completely normal to feel this way!!

Thanks girls Chat Icon I'm sorry we all have to go through this. It's not fair.

I'm just really losing it lately. I never thought things would get this bad.
