Every month...
it just gets harder and harder. DH and I have been TTC for almost a year now, and all of my friends who were also trying and started the same time or after us, are all now pregnant, I am the last one left... One just had her baby last week, then one is due in July, one in August, one in Sept. and one in Dec. I truly want to be happy for them, but I can't stop feeling "why not me?" I feel like every other week I get an invite to a shower, and I just don't know how I can sit through them one after another.....Sorry for the pity party...its been a long week, and it just started

I'm sorry it's so hard
Have you and your DH gone for testing to make sure there are no medical problems?

Re: Every month...
I know what you mean - I feel the same way - even though we have been trying for 4 mths. I am so tired of people asking me "when are you guys going to have one?" Our 1st anniversary is coming up and the question comes more and more......

Re: Every month...
I'm sorry you are feeling this way. As crazy as this sounds, it does get easier. I have been TTC for 2 years. The first year of TTC was the hardest. Getting BFN's month after month and being told to be patient and wait until a year passes to get tested.
After a year of TTC, I started seeing an RE. We are still not pregnant, but I feel like I am doing something about it. I guess because of this, getting through the last year seemed to be much easier than the first year.
Good luck to you!!!

Re: Every month...
I feel the same exact way. All my friends starting ttc after me and got pregnant before me. I ask myself all the time "why not me". My BF is due in Dec. and I want to be happy for her, I just feel so sad sometimes. I'm trying to keep myself very busy doing stuff with just my husband,so it will get my mind off getting pregnant. Now that we know what the problem is and we're going to a fertility specialist, I think it got a little easier. But it is very hard for us both. Good Luck!!!

Re: Every month...
I'm so sorry but it is completely understandable how you feel. It's only been a couple months for me and it's very frustrating. I wish you the best!! I hope your time comes very very soon!!!

Re: Every month...
I understand too. Soon DH and I will be trying for 1 year (I hope to have good news before then) and it is very hard. I had a m/c and would have been due the end of June. I try to stay positive and have found that reading message boards less has helped me stay more sane. Deep down inside there is a very certain feeling that I will get PG and that keeps me going, but I hate the wait! We're here for you!

Re: Every month...
I understand also
All of our friends are pregnant and we are still waiting. It's hard to be around them and go to baby showers every few weeks and not get depressed 
Our time will come

Re: Every month...
I am sorry for what you are going through.
I have been TTC since August with no luck. I did go see a Dr. last month to ask her what I could do before the year is up. She was great and sent me to get CD 3 blood work and a SA for DH. Just want you to know that your not alone.

Re: Every month...
I am in the same position. I just made an appt. with an RE for the end of this month. why don't you try that? It's not quite a year, but I want to be proactive.

Re: Every month...
Hi, I poste on the Infertility board. My name is Dena. My husband and I have been trying for almost 5 years. Talk about frustrating! Every month I just get more and more depressed. All my friends I went to school with have at least one child. Some even have 2 or 3 already. I have had a problem with scar tissue in my pelvic area about 2 years ago. I had surgery to remove it all. My doctor said I shouldn't have a problem getting pregnant. Well... I'm still waiting. It makes me feel so worthless. My friend that I grew up with had a baby in January, I was invited to her baby shower, I couldn't go. I had to make up an excuse. I couldn't deal with going there. I know that sounds horrible. I know if I would have went, the subject would have come up about my husband and I not having a baby yet. Family and friends don't know what my husband and I are going through. And I really don't feel comfortable enough telling them about it either. I'm going back to my doctor that did my surgery to see what we can do next. I've been waiting for our new insurance to take effect. Sorry so long.. Today is not a good day for me at all! It's really depressing!

lots of hugs for you. I have know idea how you are feeling, but it must be very hard. I have a friend who's sister tried for 6 years and went to tons of docters who told her she'd never have children. now she is blessed with 3 healthy boys.

Re: Every month...
Thank You jmmk. I never thought it would be this hard to get pregnant. I come from a big family. My mom had 6 kids (all girls). Trying to have a baby should be happy and exciting. Not full of stress and being sad all the time. I know for myself, I think I'm getting severely depressed from not being able to get pregnant. What about you girls? I lash out and cry all the time. It's just not fair!

I am so sorry for what you are going through. I am sure it is extremely hard and totally understandable to be upset. I am not at that point yet. We have been trying for a little under a year so I don't want to say I know how you feel. I did however think it was going to be much easier. On these boards you will be able to vent and find others that are in your similar situation. I don't know your specific situation, but just don't give up hope.
