Zermatt you put that better than me 
I'll sit at the back too and figure out which way to shove this pee stick into the battery wotsit and work out this smily face business

victoria401 (following previous thread) I think your feelings are very understandable and I definitely take some perspective from your situation. It is unfair. It's the same with other things in life; your trials seem like the centre of the universe until you compare them with other people and it's easy to forget that.
That said, I don't think it's unfair for people early in the process to be upset or to use this board to voice that. They're not being insensitive, they're just using the boards for support and encouragement and that's what they're there for. Even early on emotions can run high for many different reasons that we don't know about.
One thing I have learned from here is that there is huge variation and no 'normal'.

Morning new bus,
BTW my cycle is about 14 i think (didnt really track when first started trying) but its been over a year now.
Feeling like shit today have had a couple of days with cramping, which for the first time i believed to be ovulation which I was happy about.
Today I have really bad pain on the left of my lower stomach and its really hurting. Its going from a dull ache to a horrible pain and back again.
Just want to cry loads today but im stuck at work

Victoria I get where you are coming from huni, it's hard, I know it is as I was 37 before I got pregnant with my first but I really don't think anyone is being insensitive by wishing so hard for their baby wether it be after 1 month or 2 years. We all want the same thing and not 1 of us would expect it to take so long so after a few months everyone starts to worry that it's never going to happen and we all deserve to have a place like this to vent our frustrations

Thanks for the new thread Owlie
I agree with previous comments that everyone is affected by TTC in different ways and at different times. No harm is meant by anyone's comments on this forum and posters shouldn't be afraid to say how they feel for fear of hurting someone else. We are all here to support each other no matter how long we have been trying and sometimes this bus is the only thing that keeps us going
I'm sorry for anyone finding it difficult at the moment We have all been there and you will get through it, especially with the lovely mners by your side x

Victoria, don't apologise for something that YOU are feeling. Everyone here has the right to rant. I do totally get where you're coming from though. Think sometimes everyone needs a reality check but it doesn't stop those feelings of worry. We all know the statistics, we know it can take up to a year, sometimes 2. But when you want is sooo bad, each month that passes feels like time is slipping away.
I think most peoples issues stem from seeing other people seemingly getting upduffed at the mere sight of a penis! But behind all the facebook updates, scan pics, friends pg announcments etc is a story.
I'm on cycle 8... or 9, with a mc under my belt, 3 friends due around my original edd and for a while I really resented them. But that doesn't help me. I know there are others who've had a tougher struggle and others who fall easily. But thats not my fate. I'm kind of accepting of the fact that when I do get my bfp it'll be all the more special because of my journey.
But for now I want to enjoy my life, I have good health and a lovely dh and I need to remember to be thankful for that. I have a close friend who at 27 faced cancer, she's alive and healthy now but is unable to have children. Yet she never moans. My worries pale in comparison.
I wish ALL of you, health and happiness and a BIG FAT POSITIVE soon

awww victoria dont feel bad everyone has bad days...
I get angry with people sometimes but often they have no idea what your going through but the same that we dont know what they have been through.
I only started finding it hard after about 6 months and then when it got to a year i was petrified but its really helped joining mn.
