[quote=Anonymous]DH and I have been TTC for a while and we are not having success. It's been frustrating and as time goes on I am finding it hard to be around pregnant women. They seem to be everywhere, at work, on social media, next to me on the metro, and hardest of all, some of our friends. I find it especially painful to be around younger friends who are pregnant and to see their swollen bellies, to hear how it happened so fast/the first time, to be quizzed about if we are trying, to hear the details of their pregnancies, etc. I am a private person and I am not sharing our fertility struggles with friends because I don't want to discuss it. While I am happy for them, to be honest I just don't really want to be around them right now. Does that make me a horrible person? In reality, I am not avoiding my pregnant friends and they probably have no idea how I feel. I am sucking it up and being happy for them, but it's hard for me and I feel like shit. Can anyone relate?
