Like a virgin...

...lapped for the very first time.

It's hard to believe that someone has conceived and birthed a child twice and I have nothing but plans to turn "the nursery" into my new office.

Sigh.

I feel your pain. One of my good friends got married two months after I did and she already has two kids while I have nothing but the two cats I started out with and an empty savings account.

I'm sorry. It hurts every single time.

OUCH. I hear you. Completely sucks.

ugh. I hear you. Nothing to say but that this totally sucks.

Ugh. I hear you. If I hear one more friggin' pregnancy announcement I'm gonna go ape-shit. Why the HELL is it that 90% of the people I know just *thought* about trying to conceive and got pregnant 2 mins later, but here I am, three years later with nothing to show for it but a chip the size of Montana on my shoulder? F*-YOU infertility!

Yeah -- that happened to me too. She hasn't had the 2nd kid yet, but I just got the call that she's 5 months. And even though I knew it was coming, it sucked.
Sorry that you have to go through this.

Yuck, yeah my friends are "lapping" me, on thier 2nd and 3rd kids. Never gets any easier. Hope there are some other parts of being on break that are going well, like wonderful Bo!

I'm sorry. There are really no words for how awful that is. My SIL has lapped me twice since we've been trying.

I feel your pain. A friend just had her 2nd baby in 18 months. I held the stiff upper lip while I visited in the hospital, trying to not to think about the fact that I would never be in that spot.

Lots of l♥ve coming your way. It sucks. Just plain old sucks.

I hear you. My 2 BF's have their families already, all while I've been doing the IVF and failing. At this point, I'm so far behind them that there's no chance our kids will play/grow up together. But hang in there - good things do eventually happen. SOmetimes just not in the time frame that we want them to. xxoo

I completely understand too. I hate being lapped. It sucks.. Hey, not that you need another blog to read, but I started one this year. I was/am a member of FT... thought I'd share it w/ you since I love reading yours. Mine's not quite as witty, but..

It will be a bad ass office until you decide to change it to something else. Best damn office this world has ever seen. Better get you some coasters, that office is so fine...

Many of my friends have had two kids while I have been waiting for one. I about to be lapped THRICE for the first time. Meanwhile, a girl I went to school with is already a grandmother. Sheesh! It does sting a little.

Hate that. I'm trying to think of the largest NUMBER by which we've been lapped (we've got sort of an "advantage" there with all the non-contracepting Catholic friends) - lots of twos. Oh, wait, my DH's second cousin is pregnant with her third now - I think they were married a year after us. Gosh, I was thinking there had to be some fours already (why is everyone waiting? If we were fertile, I swear we would be on four. We wanted as many babies as we could possibly have). Maybe there will be some fours next year!

I've decided I'm just not meant to be close friends with those people. Also, I want to see pictures of the study makeover.

I'm really sorry. That completely sucks. I've been lapped quite a few times...it never gets easier. Thinking of you.

Lisa said...

that fucking sucks. no other words for it. our nursury is a nicely made up spare bedroom with new bedding and pictures on the walls now. i still have some hope but there's a chance it may just stay that way.

thinking of you.

Jacqueline said...
