AIBU I know but have to do this for cathartic reasons. We have a gorgeous dd 4, however we have been TTC for 3 years and have had 2 MC, one 2 months ago. Everywhere I go women are pg with their 2nd, 3rd or 4th baby everyone accept me. Dont get me wrong, I am so thankful for our lovely dd it would be alot worse if we did not have her, she has helped me through this, I would love to provide her with a brother or sister especially, she has suspected ASD (awaiting prober dx), it would help to have something for her to focus on and to be involved in. I just feel like rubbish, my body crap for not doing what its supposed to be doing. My good friend announced today that she is expecting dc number 3 grrrr, I feel happy for her and of course its not her fault but it is like a punch in the gut.

No, of course you're not being unreasonable.
Your feelings are completely natural.
I have some idea what you're going through because one of my best friends has been trying to conceive DC2 for about 3 years now. I am well aware of her emotional and physical trials and struggles.

I feel for you and wish you all the luck in the world.
Keep positive. You have one beautiful daughter and I sincerely hope that you will have a sibling for her before too much longer.

nope, yanbu. Am dead jealous of those born happily fertile, who get to choose when they have children and how many. Though v grateful always for my one ivf dc.
