It has been a very long time since I have been on here, but today feel so sad. Today is my 37th birthday and I just feel like I am getting older and still do not have any children.... Makes me sad. We have not given up, but it just does not seem to happen for us. 3 pregnancies and still childless. I was hoping today would be a good birthday, instead I just feel so sad.

Happy Birthday although it sounds like those are not the words you want to hear. Have you tired talking to your doctor about having children? Someone once told me not to stress over not being pregnant and the moment you stop being so stressed out you will find it is easier to get pregnant. Who knows it might not even be you has your husband gotten tested lately? There is always adoption although that is not the same thing as experiencing child birth, however there is always a child out there that needs a good home and you would make a great mother, please don't give up on your dreams of becoming a mom talk with your doctor and see what they have to say, hang in there. there are a lot of people who feel the same way you do and know what you are going thru. I will pray for you and your family. God bless.

I am so sorry for your losses.
Most of my friends had their first child in their mid-thirties. You know that you can carry to term. I think that your chances are good but I know from my own experiences how horrible it is to be trying while those around you are having their second or third :( I hope your next birthday is a happier one.

Thanks for the wishes... My husband has been checked and I know it is more me than him as to why we are having a hard time getting pregnant. I only have one ovary that is working and because I am over weight, its making it harder for me to get pregnant. No matter what I try, I just seem to gain more and more weight. I think the depression does not help either. Adoption is an option but my husband wont even think of it. He does not think he would love the child as his own and would treat them differently. If that is truely the case, I would never even think of it. I know it will happen when the time is right but it just sucks that it really did happen but the doctor screwed it all up... Anyway, I am sure I will get through my sadness, its just crappy that I feel so down on my birthday, when everyone around me keeps wishing me a happy birthday and I feel so sad. Thanks again guys, I miss the comfort of daily strength. It has been a long time since I posted.

I too am so sorry for your losses. Happy birthday even though I know it is a hard one. I'm nervous for my birthday though I will only be turning 24...our first baby was due two days after my birthday... hang in there! We are all praying for you. Take it one day at a time - I hope your birthday gets better!

Hi, I miscarried about 10 days before my 25th birthday and i basically ignored my birthday and told my family I did not want to celebrate at all, it would have only been a painful reminder of what I had lost. I am praying that all childless women soon see the realization of their dreams!

I am so sorry for your losses. I had the exact same feelings last birthday. It was the first time in my life that getting older bothered me. I was sad that I was just getting older, and yet still have empty arms. Now, my birthday comes up again on Dec. 19. This time I will have another baby that went to heaven first. I know this birthday will be even harder than last years. Plus, my sister is having her baby (she was 2 wks. further along that I was) only 2 days after my birthday. Then just a few days later...and another Christmas without a baby. I am so sorry for your losses. I am sorry your birthday was a sad day for you. It seems so many things trigger sad days...doesn't it?
