We are trying for a baby. It’s taken far longer than I ever thought.
I got pregnant but it was a chemical pregnancy
DH’s sperm isn’t the best, only 2% morphology.
DH now has ED and struggles to stay hard or climax (due to the anxiety/pressure, I totally get it, but it’s hard)
We are old and don’t have much TTC time left but there was no way we could have started to TTC sooner
We tried to buy a house but the sellers pulled out the week of completion.
We now can’t afford the kind of house we need (thanks Rishi).
We were so sure we’d be out of this rented house by this Christmas. I can’t believe we are stuck here.
I was invited to apply for a job, spent ages on it, didn’t even get an interview.
I was invited to apply for another job, spent even longer on it, didn’t get the job.
Work has been bloody hard for the both of us (both affected by pandemic, huge demand, not enough capacity, stressed out managers, huge amount of unpaid evening working to keep afloat).
Everyone seems to be announcing their pregnancy, making a fortune off their lockdown businesses, doing up their houses, buying bigger houses, getting promotions.
Everyone seems to be so lucky.
Not a thing has gone right for us this year. No lucky breaks. No achievements. Nothing to mark out 2021.
Fireworks are usually an optimistic time for me.
This year we have nothing to look forward to.
