Ok I know IABU. I am happy for those people who are successfully pregnant but I am having a bad day and I can feel the warning signs of AF and its over a week till I should be getting it. It seems like everywhere I look there is a happy pregnant woman or a beautiful little baby.

Rah!!! Not at them but at me for being broken!

Right will pick myself back up now

I gave up trying to get pregnant, went out on the piss instead.

Came home had drunken sex (with dp you understand, not just a one night stand) and hey presto. I now have a 23 month old toddler.

Don't ask me how the 6month old came along though because I have no idea. Wink

Have another rather unmumsnetty hug. I hope it happens for you soon. Wine

Oh dear God, I wish I hadn't asked! I AM starting to think of it as the curse though!

yes, every bugger is pregnant when you're struggling to conceive - my sister, who is five years younger, accidentally got pregnant when I had been ttc for 18 months...I was in that horrible position of being miserable and then feeling like an evil cow for not being totally happy for her.

My dad didn't help matters by then ignoring me and dp out of awkwardness, it just felt like we were being rejected for failing to provide grandchildren!

I am now 9 weeks pregnant so I hope you get some good news as soon as possible - in the meantime, get pissed, eat as much stinky cheese as possible and spend lots of money on tight-fitting clothes!

absolutely. don't have kids and have just been told i won't get NHS funding for IVF after all. Today, there were so many shop assistants in town, all sporting massive bumps at the tills..

I'm with you - just found out someone at work is, just as I am starting to have my 3rd chemical pregnancy. Joy :(
