Feeling helpless

Today was three days after my supposed period and I was so excited. I was banking on it being positive (I just had that "vibe"). 
Got a negative and then a few hours later my period started...
I'm just very disheartened. I don't even know what to tell my husband.
The worst part is knowing I have to go another month (or plenty more) with my mother in law participating in the same antics she has since we got married. I'm not worth anything to her unless I provide her a grandchild. My sister-in-law had one 9 months ago and I kid you not my MIL hasnt even spoken directly to me since her announcement to the family. Its just snide remarks to me and constant praise of my sister-in-law. She knows how my mother struggled to have kids and just assumes the same for me. 
I'm just feeling very sad, depressed, and lost. It feels like there's no light at the end of the tunnel and I'm not sure what to do anymore.
I was really hoping for the positive this month and now I'm just bummed I guess. 
Advice?

Omg your story breaks my heart! Please don't feel that way...I too have trouble conceiving and am always upset when I get a period but the truth is everybody is different! Not right for her to compare you to someone else. I used to worry so much but after speaking with my gyno she told me that it takes the average couple up to 9 months to conceive when trying. Have you considered ovulation strips? I've heard great things about them. It's a tricky thing and nobody really knows why it happens fast for some and later for others. Don't feel discouraged! It will happen. 💜
