Been struggling to get pg for longer than I care to count, nearing 2 years now. Friends seem to get married and fall pg immediately after and revel in their "it happened first time!" Tales. I tell them about my struggles but no one understands, just the old "it will definitely happen for you soon" line gets trotted out and it's never discussed. My three closest friends are currently pg and one of which is due to give birth tomorrow. I cannot summon a scrap of excitement for her and I love her dearly. I have no interest in talking about their babies and I don't want to feel like this. AIBU to ask for tips on how to deal with this. Friends don't relate to me, one posted a passive aggressive Facebook status saying that unless someone had had a baby they weren't welcome to comment or offer advice. I know this wasn't directed at me. Our conversations are all about pg and babies and I hate feeling like I don't know what they're going through or in a position to join in. I tried so hard to be "what wil be will be" about the whole thing but I have found myself becoming really down very rapidly over the past few weeks and feel absolutely hopeless. I am not jealous but feel desperately envious.
