So ok, let me just be honest. Maybe you are pregnant. Congratulations you! And I get that you want to tell everyone on Facebook. I would do the same thing! However, when you announce you are pregnant, and someone else does, and someone else is giving birth, and someone else is trying to conceive, it's a little much for me. Yes, I'm extremely happy for all these people I see making these big life changes, but I'm so incredibly jealous I'm freaking green. J-E-A-L-O-U-S.
I can't have a baby right now. Period. The soonest we can feasibly start trying is September 2011, and even that is the craziest idea I've ever had (trumping becoming a doctor even). Apparently people do have babies in medical school. And they must be crazy people like me who have had to watch everybody and their mother's aunt give birth prior to them. I have a husband I love, hopefully the capability to conceive, and yet I am still waiting. At 28. It SUCKS!
I'm happy for all you out there who are pregnant, but hearing about it every time I pull my Facebook page up - is a little painful. Yes, I am a selfish b&#@$. I don't really care. I wish I could have a baby right now.
End of rant.

Been there, felt that. :-) My circumstances were different since I was trying but couldn't, but it's similar. There's no denying that uncontrollable desire to have a baby. I honestly believe the only greater desire is to survive. I feel for you. Just know that one day you will hold your own baby in your arms and it will make this waiting even sweeter. :-)
Thanks for the encouragement! I'm trying to not be such a b&$%# but if one more person announces they are pregnant on Facebook - I'm going to lose it...straight into the tin of chocolates I told my husband to hide last week! :)
I hear ya! It is so frustrating. I'm happy for them but it is a reminder to me that we don't have one. After almost a year of trying... we quit. I'm tired of the minus sign.
