Pregnancy symptoms and pre BFP

Hi all,

So I recently just got my BFP and my husband and I are thrilled. What I really want to talk about though isn't related to the BFP at all.

It is about sending encouragement to those still waiting. When we were trying, all people kept asking us was when were we going to have a baby? We were told recently that we needed to "get on it" because we were "over the hill." My husband is 34, I'm 33. Over the hill???

People kept telling us, "when you decide to have a baby...." As if we hadn't decided. We just weren't telling people. Why? Because it is none of their fu*king business. The pressure to have kids is unbelievable and if you are trying but it just hasn't happened, it can be so discouraging.

I just wanted to send encouragement and the sense of shared frustration with the hopeful mommas to be, that you will be fine. It will work out for you, just keep focusing on the reason you are trying to make this happen so badly. I know how hard it is to see the excited posts that you want to have written, the baby showers you attend that you wish were for you, the announcements on line that make you sad.

You will get through this.
