| Re: Why is it so hard to confide?
I understand how you are feeling. my dh and i have been trying now for 6 months, his sister is now on her second child.. We were fortunate to get pg last march but in may we lost our twins (talk about feeling like a failure) it still gets to me but we want children badly and i dont really think the family understands that it hurts when they say we need to hurry up and get pg again. we are trying and i dont want to rush things and loose another. also it hurts watching his sister run around pg, especially when she does not take care of the child she already has... i know what you mean about getting your period and thinking that, i did it to... but i have decided recently to just go with it being stressed out doesnt help so i am TRYING not to think about it as much as possible, i still plan and know when i ovulate but i am not just focusing on that, as much as i want a child.. as for all the people in your life and mine they dont understand what you are going through, you could try and talk but i dont know how much that will help. you just kind of have to shrug it off and avoid it.. just the other day my sister and step sister got into a convo about there boys. born on the same day a year ago, they were comparing how they walked and words they said and different things all i could do was go into the bathroom and cry, who am i to take away their happiness just because im sad.. but any way just know someone is thinking of you and feeling the same way. Best of luck to you!

My DH and I have been TTC for about 4 months now. After month 3, I felt really sad and low, but then I decided that I will face this problem like a warrior, and defeat it any way I can. So I bought an oral ovulation kit, which is kind of hard to read. I think I misread it, and I think we didn't baby dance on the day I was ovulating. So, I don't expect anything this month. Besides, I have been feeling like AF is coming for almost a week now. I am still having hopes though. I wonder sometimes, why does it seem like everyone else is getting pregnant so easily? Is it that a lot of them are actually having unprotected sex all the time, or what? You laides are actually the first people that I've confided in. Nobody else knows that we;ve been TTC. And I guess that kind of adds to the pressure. Especially because my DH's sister had her baby in March, and now everyone is looking at us, and pointing out that it's our turn now. And since we got married recently, a lot of people have asked me if I'm pregnant. And that also adds to the pressure. Every time I get my AF, I feel a little bit more like a failure. Here's another thing you suck at, I think to myself. It's hard to confide in the people arround me and tell them openly what's going on. Would doing so make me feel better or worse?
