Disclosure - I know IABU, but I just need a rant.
I have low ovarian reserve and have been told the chances of conceiving naturally are slim to none.
Our only option really is IVF using donor eggs.
We have had one round of IVF which failed recently and no embryos to freeze. We are now paying to go abroad which is going to cost at least £11k, possibly more if it doesn't work first time.
Aside from the financial burden, our emotions are everywhere. The only positive thing is that it's made us realise how strong we are as a couple!
And yet, it seems like every day people I know are getting pregnant at the drop of a hat.
All of my friends got pregnant on their first month off contraception. One even had 2 by accident.
One girl I know is 12 weeks. She's been on a city break recently and has been posting about "baby's first holiday" and any naughty food is "the baby wanted it".
Yesterday I found out a family member is 7 weeks. She's already put it all over social media with pictures of her "bump". SHE'S 7 WEEKS!!! This is her third. She's a benefits cheat, an anti vaxxer and is planning to refuse to engage with medical professionals as "her body knows best". 😡😡😡
How is that fair?! It feels so unjust 😭 Sorry for the rant - I just needed to put it out there.

AIBU to feel so angry about EVERYONE being pregnant?
