I know exactly how you are feeling. My dh
and I have been ttc since Sept of last
year. Like you, we have been married for
a little over two years. When we
started, we knew of several other couples
who were ttc. All of them have since
gotten pregnant and a few have had babies.
We even found out about other couples
getting pregnant who we didn't know were
trying.
I don't begrudge anyone their joy, but I
wish I was pregnant, too.

I feel you! My 19 yo sil came to my dh to
ask him to ask me (did you follow that?)
for a pg test (she knows we're ttc, so I
have some) I told her that I wouldn't give
her one. (I knew it was to early anyway)
But that I am taking her butt down to
planned parenthood this weekend to get her
on some birth control. Then, I proceeded
to cry for the rest of the night. And
honestly, that is pretty much all I have
done for the last week or so. It's amazing
what we will put ourselves through just to
see those two stupid lines pop up in that
insanely small time frame.

hey christy haven't seen you around in a
while. hope everything is good with you.
yeah we really didn't think that it was
going to take us this long. i mean i
consider myself to be pretty healthy. i
don't have any sort of medical history.
but i guess this just happens sometimes.
i only get really down when i see or hear
of someone else that has gotten preg.
it'll be about another week before we see
if this month was a go or not.
good luck to you both. and i hope that it
happens soon for us all.

I guess I have been relatively lucky in
not having anyone that is really close to
me get pregnant. Most of my friends
aren't in real relationships, and the ones
that are are not married and definitely
not trying to get pregnant. We were the
fist of all our friends to get married, so
I think that has something to do with it.
Our friends are already starting to tease
us and say...."any day now...we want to
see a baby" It doesn't really bother me
yet, because I know they are jokeing and I
can easily play it off as we are still
"having fun and partying" even though we
are not. It's easy for them to believe.

I understand what your saying. I have
been trying since Nov 06 and about a month
ago someone I work with told me that her
daughter was prego. She said she just got
off birth control and after one af she was
prego. I don't understand how it is so
easy for some people and so hard for
others.

Im 26 and been ttc since feb 07, with no
luck. I have a hypothyroid which is under
control and my doctor said to stop
stressing so much, relax.3 couples we know
have gotten preggo and 2 were on
birthcontrol and weren't really ready.
Which made me upset because she was like I
guess we will be old and boring now, I was
so mad. I just relized that I'll need to
relax, take care of myself (vitamins, eat
right and get good sleep), and not let
others bother me. Its real hard when you
see them getting bigger and you have
nothing.
I would recommend getting a full GYN work
up including thyroid function testing
because its one of the number one reasons
for infertililty

Just out of curiosity, what kind of doctor
can do a full thyroid work up? I have no
clue when it comes to doctors. I always
have to ask my mom what kind of doctor I
need to be going to.

To get a full thyroid test you can ask
your OBGYN, family doctor, and a doctor
that specializes in thyroid problems is an
endocrinologist (that is who you should
see i you are dignosed with a hypo or
hyperthyroid)
