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?

Trying after Ectopic and Miscarriage
I have been pregnant twice. Had an ectopic pregnancy first time and a miscarriage the second time. We are trying for a baby at the moment but nothing as of yet. It's so frustrating! Starting to wonder if there is something worng with me :-(

I don't get it
All the girls in my office were trying to get pregnant at the same time... Everyone else is (3 of them) and not me!! And I'm the one with the bright idea. Been trying to almost a year and a half now and just when I think I have it-my period changes by a few days. My husband is now getting frustrated and even he is saying maybe we are "trying to hard". Isn't that the point?

My frustrations
My husband and I started trying in March. We had to stop due to an illness I was dealing with. Now we are back to trying.. However I've had my mom, DH's parents, my sister.. ALL asking constantly when we're going to have a baby. Now on top of that, 4 sets of our friends are all having babies this year. Although I'm very very happy for them, I find it hard because I feel like I have nothing in common with them right now.. They all talk about being pregnant, and their ultrasounds, which is amazing they absolutely should be happy and bragging.. But I totally feel left out of the conversations.
I'm sure it will happen for us when it's meant to happen. I'm trying to keep a positive outlook about it.

frustated
I understand all of your frustrations. What hurts and annoys me is when my sister in-law has three kids and gave up custody of two. She has no problem with fertility and does not want all of her kids. I want kids and I am having trouble.

advice is hard to take sometimes
Everybody say's to stop trying and it will happen. I'm so tired of hearing that!!!!!!!!! We have been trying off and on for years now. We have not gotten pregnant while trying or not trying. You get to where you don't even want to tell people, because then they say(Your trying to hard). I know they mean well but it's very to go through this with people hurling advice from every direction. Sorry just needed to vent. Sending everyone good luck!!

stop trying
I have been married going on 3 years, and with my husband for about 5 now. we have been trying to get pregnant since i had my miscarriage in Nov 2003. it so frustrating when everyone askes when we are going to have kids. i guess i should take the advice of all my friends and stop trying. i was always told youll get pregnant when you dont try. good luck to anyone else out there who is still trying.
