<cyberhug> I'm sorry, it isn't much fun. We've been trying for 15 months and I realized after about eight that something was not going right, but I dragged about going to the doctor mostly out of being afraid that they'd either (a)not find anything wrong at all and say "Beats us" (b) find some horrible incurable condition. Silly, hmm? Wasted a lot of time that way. Finally went and what do you know, PCOS.
It's hard about the friends - we also have friends who are having babies and it can be difficult. It's really tempting not to talk to them so much, just because it's painful to see them/their babies, but I wouldn't do that. Just talk to them, and while you don't need to unburden everything that's happened, with someone you're sufficiently close to you can let them know something of what you're going through. You'd be surprised how many of them had difficulties before they had their own children, or had huge worries about it. Some of my friends surprised me with their stories. And even if they haven't had problems, they understand as well as anyone what it's like to want a baby. And finding a place like this can be a real blessing when you need someone who's having the same thing at the same time as you are.
I hope that helps a little bit
. Good luck!
