Feeling strange...so fed up with this now. How did it end up that it would be me and my DH taking over 4 years to conceive whilst some friends have had two children during this time! That feeling of ‘why me?’ It’s Ironic really, well that’s not the right word but out of my group of friends I have babysat since the age of 12, been an au pair abroad and worked with children in some shape or form my whole career and I’m the one who can’t have kids! Some friends, who used to say ‘I’m not that bothered whether I have kids or not’ have had two by now! I know I’ve got to stay positive and it may work this time rounds, the odds are still relatively good and in our favour but I’m just not feeling it today. You start to feel ‘is it just not meant to be!?’

Anyway, just feeling a bit blah today, injections and anticipation getting to me I suppose. I’m sure there’s lots of us feeling like this right now. Good luck to us all hey 🍀🍀🍀

Aww bless you.

It's hard.... so so hard. I totally understand how you're feeling.

DH and I have been trying for over 5 years now and still no baby. Every single person is of age has a child/children.

These days 'why me' and they hit us hard but whilst we still have a chance, we need to try and stay strong.

Our day will come 🤞.
