Trying for a baby for two an a half years now without success. Started IVF but the first embryo transplant failed. We are lucky we are relatively young and healthy but it sucks that we can’t conceive in a normal way (even though we don’t know why) and we have a lot of embryo’s still in the freezer. It sucks so much and everyone around me just have to look at each other and they’re pregnant.
I feel so strongly it’s never going to happen for us.
I can understand, I’m not so young and my husband is even older, we don’t have a family, just each other so we wanted a child so much… but I have a chronic illness so I’m starting to think that it will never happen… and I’m angry and jealous of all the people who have kids “just because” or by accident!
Yes it’s so hard and so unfair. So many people around me just accidentally get pregnant and I just can’t be happy for them anymore. The worst part is no one can promise you it’s going to be okay, they can’t even give us the odds IVF will work for us.
I know this might sound cliché, but is adoption considerable? Not that it always is, I know sometimes a government makes you depend on agencies that hurt the act of adoption or that it’s a wildcard or nothing is available, but as an aunt to foster children, I can say there is nothing that feels better.
Yeah that’s not an option due to a lot of factors, mainly that our coumtry doesn’t allow couples to start the process as there’s a lot of issues with adoption worldwide. It’s basically a business for some people to find children that rich people from western counties pay good money for to adopt. For example in Congo it’s basically impossible for Congolese couples to adopt a baby as there’s more money to be made from western couples. It’s also very different from having a child that’s your own, so even if it was a possibility, we wouldn’t want to go down that road.
