Just needed to post. So pissed off at this ttc lark. Af has got me yet again this month and I honestly don't know how I'm going to pick myself up and try again.
To make an utterly shit situation even shittier I had a conversation with a friend the other day and she said "if I could guarantee I would have a boy I'd get pregnant tomorrow " - really?? So it's that fucking easy is it??? To have such an opinion like that - despite knowing how low I feel about my utter failure to conceive. It makes me sick, I'd do anything for a healthy baby no matter what the sex

I could have written your post myself. I know EXACTLY how you're feeling.
I've had to sufferer many flippant comments from friends over the years I've been trying (I unfortunately suffer from Recurrant miscarriage as well as finding it hard to convince in the first place) and sadly quite a few friendships have been damaged by really unkind attitudes towards what I've been going though.
Call her out on it. It's likely she won't realise just how hurtful she's been. And if she's still being a big blunt bitch, ditch her. In tough times its so important to surround yourself with people who protect and understand you.

Hi sizethree
Thank you so much for your kind words.
I'm so sorry to hear you're going through such a bad time too, it's just so sad that we go through this and people can say such flippant hurtful things.
Yes I will tell her, you're right.
Thanks again, needed kind words this morning.

Morning diamond sparkles - I am sending you big hugs. I've been Ttc since a miscarriage last October and people saying things like that is very insensitive isn't it? I've even had well at least your body can get pregnant it shouldn't take long!!!! I'm also 35 so that stresses me too but I've had to switch off from comments from so called friends; I'm like you n would be happy to just have a baby! I also know 2 pregnant people both of whom - it was just an accident and they openly told me that!!

I agree with size three surround yourself with positive supportive people - anyone not in that category, their names not on the list so they're not coming in!!!!!!

My period is due today - my phone app (which may have to go as it's driving me insane!!!!!!) has just told me that (flashed up on my screen lime I want reminding).

My partner is at work until 3pm so thought I'd nip to town n gave a look round the shops and treat myself to something to cheer me up!!!!!

My mum gave me good advice tho - she said you need something else to focus on so I joined slimming world - might not be pregnant but have list a stone and a half.
??????????????????

Thanks for your lovely message bellabutterfly.
I know people are just so bloody insensitive, what an awful thing to hear after your miscarriage. I can't believe how stupid people can be.
I'm 37 so am also worried I am just running out of time.
Nipping into town sounds like a great plan Smile
Are you testing when your partner gets home? If so I wish you all the luck in the world.
Well done on your weight loss, that's an amazing achievement.
Big hugs to you too Grin
