I met my cousin who just got married, stayed with her husband for a month before he had to move to another continent for work... however in that one month that they were together they managed to get pregnant!!! I am happy for her but are you serious!!!! Is it that easy??? We are struggling for years and they look at each other and bam!!!

Snap! I have a cousin who got pregnant as soon as she got married & 3 times in the following year. Sadly she miscarried all 4 times which is terrible but my auntie tells the family that this cousin has the same problem as me & can't fall pregnant! Seriously, it took me 10 years to even get my first BFP! X

Sorry to hear this, its just a smack in the face! I also have a cousin that can get pregnant at the drop of a hat, in fact know quite a few people! Sooooo infuriating isnt it and completely unfair! If it makes you feel any better my MIL thinks we should have given up ages ago as "kids arent everything, go and have a nice life, you dont need kids"! Easy for you to say....grrrrr!! I know how it feels to have insensitive comments made!xx

A parent of a child in my class last year is with a man who lives in America. They see each other twice a year. They managed to conceive a second child, despite the distance, and that child was born the day my second ivf cycle failed. Life feels very cruel sometimes.
