I can so relate. I have been married for almost 9 years and the oldest of four siblings who all have children.

I'm so sorry to hear of your struggles. I also had a miscarriage recently at ~7 weeks, which happened after about a year and a half trying to conceive and 6 cycles with Clomid/Letrozole. Similarly, like everyone I know either recently had a child or is pregnant, and all have been married less time than me. It's all hard to deal with; there's no real secret to coping. But if anyone has it, I'd be happy to hear as well! Somehow it just happens...more time passes that I didn't think I could take the pain from not getting pregnant, but I just go on...hoping one day something will work.

I recently had a laparoscopy done they find endometriosis which they have removed could be a possible cause of why I am having a hard time. They are having us try on our own for a couple of months if nothing then back to follitism in January.

Hi,
There are many people who have had a laparoscopy done and usually that will solve the problem. Praying that you will be pregnant in the next three months. :)

Thank you so much! God bless.

I feel your heartache. I have to rsvp no to baby showers for self-protection. It's so very hard when everyone around you is having or has what you are praying/hoping for. I struggle with being jealous and resentful but wanting to be happy. Just today co-workers we're going on and on about their kids and i teared up and had to leave the meeting. It's so hard and you don't know unless you have been there. I have gained weight from all my IUI and IVF's and people keep asking me if I am pregnant. I miscarried at 9 weeks and want to tell everyone "I was.." things
Are hard.

I too have gained weight and had people question me but the main thing is to keep your head up and be positive. It takes longer then others it’s just hard to accept. Have you done a laparoscopy? I know nothing many ppl whose IVF’s were successful because of finding endometriosis and scraping it off. Have you talked to your doctor about it?

Hi MelYou, I can totally understand your struggle. I'm 29 and have been married for 5 years. This journey has not been easy and many people have told me I am still young and have time, but it only makes me more frustrated because my age shouldn't matter. I am still struggling and literally all my friends and family members who got marries after me are pregnant or have multiple children already. I'm so sorry for your loss and my prayers are with you<3

I am so sorry about your loss. I understand what you are talking about. I'm 32 and all my friends and all people I know are pregnant or having children. I was born without a uterus. There is no way for me to get pregnant. I chose surrogacy as an option. But this is not a short process. I'm happy now because I have something which gives me hope. At the same time each birthday announcement, each baby shower is very hard for me. When I see photos of my friends’ children on Facebook I feel like depression hugs me tightly. I really have no idea how to cope with it when you ttc for a long time or facing infertility. I really hope to start my journey after holidays. Maybe next year I will have a baby. I'm sure motherhood will change my life.

I can relate. You are not alone. My husband and I do not have any friends who are married without children like we are. It's helped us become a bit closer since we've become each other's best friend and buddy for everything we do together. Even though you feel like you are too young at 25, it's completely normal to want this process to happen. We're here for you and hopeful for you.

I can relate to everyone here. I am married and turning 32 in a few days. Everyone of my friends and co-workers have kids or pregnant. I just dont get why it cant be me. I smile and give positive remarks but it pains so deep inside. I feel like i live a pretend life. I jus cant do it anymore.

hi, i'm new to this but it's so refreshing to meet others in same boat. Been married 2 years together for 5 years, we been trying for the last four years, and same thing everyone around us are pregnant or on baby #2 or #3, all we can do is pray and trust God

@ma2017 I thought the same when I joined this group. i felt like I was alone but now I am happy to share my experiences with others that understand. Amen I agree that is all we can do.
