I Wish People Would Stop........ Posted: 01-28-07 12:58pm
Asking when we are starting a family? I
know they don't realize how painful that
question is but enough already!! It makes
me feel broken and barren.
My dh and I have been married going on 8
years now and have been ttc for seven!!!
Long time, lots of heartache along the
way, 2 m/c while taking clomid.
What should be a simple act of nature
taking its course doesn't always work out
that way.It is so hard somtimes when your
friends are getting married after you and
already on their second or third baby. I
guess i'm a little down in the dumps
today, my dh is away at work until the 9th
of feb and i'm missing him a lot.
I should recieve my ovulex this week
sometime, i'm really hoping it will be my
cloud with the silver lining.
I feel a little better already just
putting my thoughts into print.

I understand how you feel. Although it
didn't take us that long to conceive our
daughter, we waited almost 6 years to
start trying and then it took us a year
and a half to get pregnant. That's all
we heard, when are you going to have kids?
Now, all we hear is when are you going
to have a second baby. It is
frustrating!

I know sometimes those questions may seem
harmless to the people asking but can cut
like a knife. I sometimes get accused
of being pregnant. The secretaries at
work occassionally talk about throwing me
a baby shower. Once I responded by
saying, "i haven't gained that much
weight, have i?" one secretary says she's
just waiting for my baby shower before
retiring.
I was at a work-related party in early
january when someone I had met only a few
times congratulated me. I of course
thought she was talking about something
work-related, but she said "no, you're
pregnant aren't you?"
my dh and I are keeping quiet about our
ttc, but I somehow think that people just
assume that we are. I'm 36 and my
husband is 35 and we have been married
since may 05.

Aww hun, I am so sorry that you are
feeling so down.
Believe me I know what your going through,
my two bros & two elder & one
younger sis have babies now. Its like 5
small babies are there still they are
always asking me when we are going to have
a baby. We didnt tell anyone that we are
ttcing only my forum friends knows it.
& we have been married also only 11
month(feb 16 2006) now, though we were
together for 5 yrs.
Sorry for the long reply.
I know how much more you will be going
through when it has been 7 yrs for you.
But dear still it will happen for us too,
I do pray a lot for everyone ttcing.
Lots & lots of baby dust to you hun,
hope ovulex works for you & that next
month you get a bfp.
Good luck

I never had a problem conceiving really as
my son was an "oops" but I just want to
wish you all the best of luck ttc. Some
people don't realize there are problems
and have no class so keep asking even
after realizing it's a touchy subject.
