Everyone's pregnant, aren't they?

Someone at work who "wants us to be pregnant together," (no hope in that, she's due in Dec.) someone I went to elementary school with...people in the street (haha)...it's just so sad when you've wanted it for so long and there's no one to talk to about it...and I love when people ask, "you are trying, right?" No..I'm twiddling my freakin' thumbs waiting for the stork! Just having a down moment I had to get out there...

I went to visit my grandmother in the hospital last week and there must have been a birthing class happening that night, b/c on my way out, there were 10+ pregnant couples in the parking lot, walkway, lobby, etc. It was like cruel joke.

Re: Everyone's pregnant, aren't they?

It seems that everyone on tv is pregnant too. Every time I turn on the tv a celebrity is pregnant with their first, their second child. It never ends. My sister-in-law just got married in April and Im waiting for her to drop the brick that it happened to her right away. I just don't get it.

What gets me is that women are getting pregnant, then it turns into multiples. Also, the women over 40. I do not want to offend anyone and I know that there is no age limit. But it is supposed to be a little difficult for a person over 40 than a woman under 30. I guess I am just a ilttle bitter. But no offense to anyone.
I guess it has always been out there but when we are TTC we become obsessed and notice every pregnant woman.

Re: Everyone's pregnant, aren't they?

yes they are. My niece is pregnant..oops..and she announced it on FB. She doesn't know what I'm doing so she's not trying to protect my feelings by not telling me.

and she was on BC. I think my nephew was shocked and surprised.

and yes, it's extremely difficult to get pregnant over 40. Those instances are far and few between. I hear them too and it only gets me more aggravated that it didn't happen to me..yet.

Have you guys seen Guiliana Rancic ever talk about this? The problems she's going through and all? she made reference that a lot of the famous women you see getting pregnant (and the multiples too) went to RE's and did treatments because they were having issues too and that's how they did it. She said it's just something no one talks about and they don't tell you about it.

Just some of what you wrote made me think of her and what she's said.

I hate to say it this way, but thanks for feeling the same way! This process is so isolating..and can be so frustrating, not only the actual getting pregnant part, but all of the junk surrounding it (ie. insurance issues). Best of luck to everyone-hopefully we don't have to feel this way much longer! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
