Are you sensitive about...
Mother's day?
I was really hoping to have a baby or to at least be pregnant by now, so I noticed I am a little sad about mother's day this year. Not that I will let it bother me enough to be a grouch, but still..it kinda stings a little.
I seriously cannot wait to be able to celebrate it with the rest of the moms!
I hope we're all in that club next year!

Not at all.
I want a baby and would like it. But my DH and I decided we would NEVER risk us and our relationship over not ebing able to have a baby.
What happens will happen. We would be dissapointed, but its not worth what we have seen some women go through.

A little, after over a year and a half of ttc with no bfp it hurts to know I'm still not a mom.

being sad about it is not at all the same as risking your relationship. its natural to be sad if youve been trying a while and havent had success. the longer (and harder) you TTC the more intense it gets. you cant really say how you would react until youve gone through it.

I felt the same way in the beginning. Just see what happens and it will happen when it happens. But when you are having issues and TTC for awhile you begin to doubt it will ever happen.
Being sad about IF issues and not being a mother hasn't strained our relationship one bit. It's brought us closer. I know it can hinder a relationship, but doesn't always.
To answer the ?, yes, it definitley stings a bit. It might be worsened by the combo of PMS emotions, the fact that I still dont' have a bfp at 13dpo, that I have my beta today and that I have to go out and buy a shower gift today.

No I am not. I think because we are new to TTC. I PRAY that this is my last non-mothers day!

Re: Are you sensitive about...
A little in the sense that at one point DH said to me if we get pregnant this month we can tell everyone on mother's day! I didnt get my hopes up about it, but now that it's here I find myself wistful.

Mother's day?
I was really hoping to have a baby or to at least be pregnant by now, so I noticed I am a little sad about mother's day this year. Not that I will let it bother me enough to be a grouch, but still..it kinda stings a little.
I seriously cannot wait to be able to celebrate it with the rest of the moms!
I hope we're all in that club next year!
Valerie, many yrs. ago, before I had Debi, who will be 37, this month, I desperately wanted to be a Mom. I got pregnant, but did not realize it, so I was housecleaning, and moving heavy things like my piano, and I miscarried. I was so sad, and looking at the other Moms in Church on Mother's Day, made me cry. Then, I got pregnant with Debi, and I thought I was going to lose her too, because I had a lot of bleeding!!! I don't know how I was blessed to have a healthy baby, except I, and probably a lot of people who knew how much I wanted a baby, prayed, and THE LORD answered our prayers!! May THE LORD also answer your heart's desire for a baby, and Blessings on you!!!! Mary

Thanks ladies. I would like to elaborate :)
I guess I "wrote" poorly. For me, it does not sting at all. If it happens great, if not great.
We have been trying for about 6 months and there MIGHT be some problems. We are on a wait and see. And for us thats ok.
I have seen a lot of women who get completly heartbroken, desperate, and have marital issues because of it (IF or problems conceiving). And I FEEL for them. I know how important it is to some to be parents. My heart hurts for them.
So my comment was more like "I am not in a place like that, so it also does not bother me (like it might other women) BECAUSE we have a very open attitudude toward PG or not PG"

Re: Are you sensitive about...
Yes I am because I should be 5 months PG so that just never goes away. I never imagined it wouldn't happen by now. But I'm more sensitive because we lost my grandma a week ago so I'm feeling sad for my mom. Let's pray that next year we all have our angels here with us!

yes, i am very early into the TTC journey so it doesnt bother me in those terms but my grandma died last month and I'm having a VERY tough time with that. especially because I cannot spend the entire day with my stepmom tomorrow, i have DH and my mom's bday on top of mothers day! i feel so bad for her.
