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?

Am I the Only one?

Posted by: PixelatedDream on Wed Jan 7, 2009
I've been reading all of the "TTC Frustration" Story's and I'm shocked at how they all seem like they are coming from me.
I'm 24 and My Husband is 22, we were married on Valentine's Day 2007 and have been trying since March 07 so we've been trying just 2 months shy of 2 years...
My husband is in college and has 8 months left until he graduates so we can't afford Fertility Doctors and Meds.
I've Charted, I've used Ovulation Predictor kits, I've tried the BBT charting, I've tried "Not trying" but nothing is working. I'm getting frustrated and depressed about it. My husband seems just fine and it never bothers him, and when i show that it bothers me, he gets upset.
It's Got so bad that i had a emotional break down when i found out my husband's cousin was pregnant. I threw all my baby magazines and everything baby related in a box (while bawling my eyes out) and put it in my closet so i couldn't see it anymore. Last Sunday night at our church a women who goes there brought her new born baby girl to church. I did the best i could to be strong, but the paster was talking about what a blessing she was and all this stuff through out his sermon so it got very hard not to cry, then at the end of the service I felt like was going to break down in front of everyone if i didn't get out of there right then, so i rushed out before anyone had the chance to shake my hand. My husband got very upset at me and tells me i need to stop acting like a child, and that i won't get pregnant until I "grow up"
I geuss I thought i was the only one that took TTC so hard, Am I being childish and immature for reacting so badly to babies and pregnant women? It just...hurts so bad.
