Alright ladies, let's all name those pet peeves that are specific to TTC!
My #1 pet peeve is when friends fall pregnant and hate it or don't even care one way or another, or pregnant women complaining in general
My #2 is when people ask you when you're going to have a baby. Uhh for one that hurts because it reminds you of everything and for two, as if we actually KNOW when we're going to fall pregnant
What are some of yours?

Pretty much the same. Another one is seeing women who you know are going to be horrible mothers ending up pregnant! It doesn't seem fair! I may not be the best mother, but DH and I and my two from my first marriage could give a new baby LOTS of love. We all want a new baby in the house desperately....why should someone who is going to see the baby as a burden get one when I can't have one!

That is the one question that hurts SO bad, month after month. I broke down one day and called my mom because a friend of mine became pregnant and had the nerve to say "Ugh my life is over" directly to me. That tore me apart, and almost sent me into a nervous breakdown because it's NOT fair! My mom tried to calm me down and said, "It isnt FAIR Amy, it just is what it is." I've been saying "It is what it is" for a few months now. It keeps me sane, because it's DEFINITELY not fair.

I hate seeing young women who did not want to get pregnant or who got pregnant at a young age and cannot afford a baby. That just kills me. Here I am 25 stable and married and I cannot get pregnant. It really stinks.

Yes this drives me crazy too. DH is a cop, so he sees so many situations of people with little babies and small kids that mistreat them or are on drugs, or women or are pregnant and can't afford the kids or are really young etc.
He tells me these stories and I'm like how is that fair that these kinds of people can get pregnant and/or have kids, and we are young, have good jobs, a nice house etc and we can't get pregnant after a year of TTC. urghh it gets so frustrating!!
Its like that movie idiocracy, anyone ever seen that? If you haven't, look it up you will understand what I mean!

People who get pregnent by mistake and get this, opt for abortion.
I have personally known a person who did this ( she actually said she's done with diapers and she's a free bird after a long time and don't want another baby to hold her up ) of course she doesn't know I'm having a hard time conceiving.She had an abortion when I was miscarrying right in the same month june 06.Well i started miscarrying in april but I bled till end of june.And we both went to the same doctor.
Yes it isn't fair.

Doctors who say you have already given birth to at least one baby and you have gotten pregnant before, so we know you can conceive. Just relax and have fun trying! It WILL happen. Just be patient. Blah blah blah.... well, come to find out... I'm not ovulating!!! Silly doctor... doesn't realize us women KNOW our bodies and when something's wrong! Anyone else have that happen to them?

Yea, one time my MIL was saying " go do it more often, you guys didn't try hard enough". And my DH replied "if we try any harder, my dick is going to fall off".
