It is so hard to hear about all of these people being do dang lucky. I have to ask God: What makes them so special that they are able to conceive so quickly? What have they done in their life that I haven't done? There have been many times that I have gone in my classroom, shut the door, and just cried. I am sorry that this was so hard for you.<br /><br />P.S. I was just going back and reading this post that you had linked to.Noellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17217779025743115019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3525951727673893338.post-64877472141661159072009-11-05T20:00:06.932-06:002009-11-05T20:00:06.932-06:00I can very much relate to that post.

I'm sure I would still feel deep sadness that I wasn't conceiving, but I wouldn't have to feel that jealousy or feel like I am getting left behind...<br /><br />Thinking of you!<br />makingmemom.blogspot.comHillaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01315741098772456270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3525951727673893338.post-84927861484088653792009-11-05T19:10:16.386-06:002009-11-05T19:10:16.386-06:00Awe I'm sorry!

These announcements make you sad, jealous, resentful, and then on top of all that, you get to feel guilt for not being happy for your friends. Please don't beat yourself up, these emotions are totally warranted. <br /><br />HUGS.Melissa Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04150534738341942742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3525951727673893338.post-12702826495146115132009-11-05T11:55:07.208-06:002009-11-05T11:55:07.208-06:00I had friends that got pregnant on their first try...I had friends that got pregnant on their first try too while we were ttc. Sucks big time. Please know that your feelings are absolutely normal though.<br /><br />It honestly sucks not knowing when/how/if it's going to end and although it's hard to see now, the pain really does start to heal once you have a baby - either bio or adopted. Granted, I still cringe at announcements, baby showers, pregnant women, etc. I just don't cringe quite as hard anymore. And I don't feel quite so desperate about how we will continue to build our family. If one is all we have are grateful and know how blessed we are.<br /><br />I like what Michelle said though - this will/does make us better parents!<br /><br />-Carrie<br />http://welayinrepose.livejournal.comCarriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13721581459131697651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3525951727673893338.post-11344317304446737602009-11-05T11:12:28.675-06:002009-11-05T11:12:28.675-06:00(((hugs)))
