Does Anyone Else Get Irritated With First Month Success Stories Even Though You Are Happy For Them?

Question

I have been trying for 15 months so probably I am fatigued haha but I am so happy for each and every person that gets a positive pregnancy test but I have to admit I get a little sore about the people gloating about it just took them one month or it being their first month trying. No other amount bothers me but the one monthers 🤣. Like I know it is their story and they have every right to tell it and be happy but I can admit I’m just a little bitter about it 😐🤣. Anyone else or am I just a monster?

Answer

Nope not at all. I feel you. I wonder why you’re on a TTC forum at all when you didn’t have to try to conceive 🙄 just go straight to the pregnancy forum and let us all struggle with infertility in peace. I’m cool with anyone who tried for at least 5-6 cycles, because they probably started to feel a littlnofnwhat we feel.

Answer

It’s totally callous and unacceptable to post about your effortless pregnancy in a TTC forum. Those posts should just be deleted in my opinion

Answer

Lol hate those posts mostly because at the bottom of it there is always the whole " i tried preseed, prenatal vitamins (all standard things us ttcers  have been doing for a long time) !dont give up it will happen!!". I sound like an asshole but it's just so irritating. I love seeing the 1yr + success stories though.

Answer

I've literally just said this in a comment on another post. The one monthers have a special sting 😕

Answer

It took us 13 months of trying after a miscarriage to get pregnant and the worst thing I kept hearing after our miscarriage was “it’ll happen again, we got pregnant right away after ours!” Every month was more depressing then the last, this time we’re on our 3rd month of trying which I know isn’t long but I do know what it’s like to have to hear those stories of people who got pregnant that first month when you’ve been trying for what seems like a lifetime. It is frustrating

Answer

In a similar position to you. We are TTC for our rainbow baby and having no luck. Each month is a heart break and in the last week we’ve heard two announcements where the couples weren’t trying and one always used to say she never wanted a baby. My husband says “it’s another oops I tripped and fell pregnant story”.
It’s hard to be happy when the only thing you want is just not happening. This month is really hitting me hard. Don’t feel like it’s ever going to happen.
