Basically, we have been trying for a year and a half and I feel like I am at a breaking point. I just found out that yet another friend is pregnant. I feel like I can't take the heartache anymore. Does anyone have any helpful advice or any positive stories about getting through infertility?
I really appreciate your time. Thanks :)

Just to answer some of your questions: My hubby and I have both been through a lot of tests. He had a super low count and had an operation for varioceles. His count has improved. The blood tests I had showed that I did not ovulate. I have taken Clomid 3 times. I am seeing a new fertility specialist next week.

My husband and I tried for almost 5 years to get pregnant- I was told that I would never be able to get pregnant but I'm now 24 months along! I decided to try a different route and opted for accupuncture. I started seeing him in December and by February I was pregnant! It's definatley worth giving it a try- it works! And I know exactly how you feel about seeing everyone else around you getting pregnant. I would come home and cry for hours every time another friend got pregnant- especially the ones that didn't want a baby yet. Just stay positive and remember that your time will come and when it does, you will cherish every minute of it!

My friend tried for 2 years before her first. Now she has three beautiful children, all under the age of 5.
My aunt had cancer and a lot of back surgery and was told by the doctors she would never have children. She was on birth control just so she would get her period, and some months she just didn't even have one anyways. She was declared infertile and she had settled for never having kids. She now, also, has three wonderful children.
Do not give up hope. It will happen when the time is right. Make things fun, stop stressing. I know you want to have a baby so much, but just relax and know that in time you will have one. Best of luck to you and I hope things work out for you soon!

I felt the same way and was to the point where I started looking at fertility treatments that I could do and afford.. The day I started looking into it is the day I found out I was pregnant.. Try not to be so hard on yourself and dont think about it.. It will happen when the time is right.. It took me over 3 years to become pregnant.. I am now 27 weeks with baby #2..

I know exactly how you feel. My husband and I have been TTC for 2 years. All of my friends have kids and I feel as if I am sitting back and watching everyone else live my dream. This is my plan:
Ovulex or Fertilaid (both herbal supplements that you can buy online without a prescription) I haven't decided which one yet.
Doctor's appointment.
After a year, a doctor will see you regarding your infertility. It could be something so simple!! Good luck!!

I haven't dealt with this, but I know someone who has. My friend was told she wouldn't ever be able to get pregnant. And she is currently pregnant with a baby girl due in October. Because the doctors told her she would never be able to get pregnant (not sure of the reason), she sees the doctor often and has an ultrasound everytime she goes in.
Good luck and stay positive (I know it's hard).

There is nothing positive to come out. But for the Christian who is demonized, everything works for the good for those who trust in Jesus. I think people can be too critical. I don't know how to demonize someone. I believe that means to curse them (send demons on them). The Pharasees demonized the Holy Spirit Power & Jesus warned them that there isn't forgiveness when someone is blaspheming the Holy Spirit. It is better to pray for others, rather than cursing or slandering them behind their back.

Sorry your depressed. I would check with a DR, depression can be part of the problem. I have been told that angels in heaven choose their parents. I was blessed a couple times. One of my angels even came early just so he could spend more time with me before he had to go back to heaven 11 months later. Just relax. It will happen when your angel baby is in heaven looking down on yoy and tells God that is the one I want for my Mommy.

I'm in the same boat at this time. I would tell you to visit some of the chat pages like ivillage.com to talk to other women who are going through the same thing. I wish you all the luck in world. Positive baby vibes to you.

it took me almost 2 yrs to get pregnant with this baby, after a year of trying we took time off and took a vacation, got drunk, had FUN sex instead of baby making sex, and came home refreshed. Have you had any testing or treatments? It may be as simple as a dose of hormones for you to concieve.
