Conception Frustrations?
If you're trying to conceive and it's taking longer than you had hoped, what frustrations are you running into? Is it that just about everyone around you seems to be pregnant? Or, something someone said? Or, is you-know-who (your mom, his mom...) pressuring you or asking when way too often? Does it sometimes feel like TTC is more like Trying to Cope?

Why Can't We Get Pregnant?!!

Posted by: Bootsie on Fri Aug 10, 2007
My husband and I have been trying to conceive for over 2 years now. When we visited the doctor last year, it was determined that my hormone levels were normal. The problem is my husband has below-average sperm levels and his motility levels are low. We have held off from seeing a fertility specialist because it costs so much. Although I love my husband dearly, I am starting to resent him. I come from a large family and 5 new infants were born into my family within the past year. I get so frustrated because my family members constantly ask whether we are pregnant yet. One cousin and her husband had problems conceiving for nearly 2 years and have been blessed to have 3 children. When she was going through this difficult period, I was sympathetic and always gave her a shoulder to cry on. Now that she is a mom, she has joined the ranks of my insensitive family members and asks me whether I am pregnant yet whenever we speak. I have repeatedly told her that she would never have to ask me whether I was pregnant because I would be shouting it from the rooftops. I have just been feeling so low and resentful of others who have been blessed with children.
