Hey guys,
My partner and I are TTC and have been actively for a few months but wanted to start mid last year but I was told I needed to have my completion proctectomy and J pouch prior to any pregnancies. So in February I had the surgery and then we started trying in May. It hasn't happened yet and even though we have only been trying a short time, I feel like its been ages and it gets to me that my body has forced us to wait until now.
I just want things to go our way for once and not have to worry about more invasive tests, more drugs, more surgeries, more appointments- you get it!
Added to that is my sister getting pregnant without trying or planning it, friends who weren't sure they wanted kids getting pregnant, everyone on social media getting pregnant- GAHH!
Anyway, just wanted to hear from others who might struggle with the mental side of things and any coping mechanisms hehe.
