Is EVERYONE around you TTC?

My little sister just had a baby in January. My brother and SIL this past October. A friend who got married in November just had a m/c. I work with a bunch of girls aged between 25-35. One is pregnant. One just came back from maternity leave, one had a bad m/c (4.5 months) and about three of us are TTC.

Am I the only one in this situation? It's kind of overwhelming....

Re: Is EVERYONE around you TTC?

Nope. I am the only one in my family or in my circle of friends to have a child or TTC. I almost wish I had SOMEONE around me in a similar situation because I've run into lots of issues with friends not understanding what I'm going through.

Re: Is EVERYONE around you TTC?

All my friends are pregnant or have just had babies, I feel like they all look at me like whats wrong with you, I hate that feeling, but I love the fact that they are mom's or expecting, it makes it easier for me to talk to them bc they got pregnant already so I talk their ear off!!!

Re: Is EVERYONE around you TTC?

I definitely like having a little nest of ladies who are TTC, but all of the differing advice and BFNs and m/cs...it's a lot...

As you can see, I am feeling a bit stressed this month...

Re: Is EVERYONE around you TTC?

I am the only one TTC in my family as far as I know. 3 cousins just had babies earlier this month but they said it wasn't planned.

My very good friend is TTC. It's nice to have someone who understands what your are going through.

Re: Is EVERYONE around you TTC?

We are the last to conceive. Just about all of our friends have children, some two. Family member who are married are now also expecting. Work friends either just returned from maternity leave or are also expecting.

Everyone is expecting us to be expecting. Chat Icon

Re: Is EVERYONE around you TTC?

Not really, my sister plans to start trying for her second around August, but right now my older sisters are finished having kids and my youngest is too young Chat Icon (I have 5 sisters)

I work with all guys, so there is no one at work, and most of my female friends tend to be 50+ (I like to hang out with old ladies Chat Icon ) One of my girlfriends is ready to start trying but her DH is trying to put it off as long as possible.

So right now it's just us, but we aren't saying anything, so no one really knows yet.

About 5 of my cousins are either pregnant or just had a baby, my BIL had a baby in August, most of our friends are single or not ready to have kids yet but everyone keeps asking us when we are going to have kids especially since we have been married just over 2 years now and everyone thinks we are going to have a baseball team of kids Chat Icon Chat Icon

I just feel like I am "missing the boat" with all my friends who just had babies... my baby (when we get preggo) will be at least a year younger than their kids... Chat Icon
