[quote=Anonymous]Also it is ok to be rational and irrational. I know that my coworker (I was the pp who left the room every time she came in) did not “steal” my opportunity to be pregnant. I knew that every single woman at the park who had two under two and was pregnant again did not deserve it more or less than me. I was not mad AT my friend who got pregnant on the first month of trying while I had enough naps and charts and timing to invade North Korea (not really but it felt like a military operation to temp, chart, and determine the best timing) and was seeing a specialist and it still wasn’t enough. I could be rational in those feelings but still felt the universe wronged me.

We waited until we had enough money and a house and stable jobs and that seemed to be right but then it was wrong because we could not get pregnant and I felt like I should have been 24 and had three kids and avoided all of this. And it is ok to feel irrational and angry and mad at the universe.

The feelings never totally go away but they do change over time (at least for me). I wish you the best as you go through this part of your journey and know you are very much normal and justified in your feelings.[/quote]
