@ttcjourneywithmel: In July 2025 we decided to start trying for a baby. It’s now July 2026…I stupidly thought I’d already have a baby by now if not heavily pregnant but here we are in the TTC trenches. I never knew up & down emotions like this in my life. I made this page hoping that I could connect with other women on the same page because not everyone you speak to gets it 😩😭 If you’re TTC I’m sending you all the baby dust & wishes 🥹 #ttc #tryingtoconceive #MentalHealth #ttcjourney #ttchat

XxLavagirlxX :

“When are yall going to have kids” is actually the most gut wrenching question and they don’t even know … sending everyone baby dust ✨✨✨ 2 years trying for us and it’s the hardest mental battle

Mandii :

Currently struggling with secondary infertility and hearing “at least you have one” or “ when are you giving him a sibling” is the absolute worst 😞

Mumma megs :

Gem 💜 :

Been trying for 3 years now, it’s hard when family around you are getting pregnant but not you 😭

Silent repost…

Chloe :

I got married last July and am in the same boat, been planning my life around “what if i’m pregnant by then” it’s horrific. Especially being around pregnant people is so hard

Honi B :

or miscarriage after miscarriage after miscarriage. i am so tired.

nourahgrace2 :

If your not pregnant by Christmas 2026 wrap a baby blanket and place it under a tree and wish for a baby for next to Christmas, I’ve seen lots couples do this and they actually end up being able to hold the baby in the blanket the next Christmas 🥺

Bri Bowers :

“Stop thinking about it and it will happen” is the worst… if only those people understood what all that waiting does to you.. July marked 2 years of TTC for us and 4 failed IUIs

haley :

5 years later and still nothing, the younger cousins are all getting pregnant and it’s getting harder to be at family gatherings without crying- sending baby dust to everyone in this thread and readers🫶🏼

Sophie Sumner 💋 :

it will get better. we ttc for 17 years, told it'd never happen unless we had icsi/ivf and im laying in bed 24 weeks pregnant today naturally conceived feeling my baby kicking and wriggling away. good luck xx

Kiara Sutton :

I really feel your pain! Me and my husband started may 2025 and we’ve never seen a positive test. I hope we all get our happy endings 💗

Aaliyahhhh :

going on 2 years trying ❤️‍🩹 doesn’t get any easier especially when everyone around you is having babies & you yearn for that feeling so bad❤️‍🩹

𝓚𝓮𝓻𝓻𝔂 🌸🐼 :

the constant silent heartbreak every month, the silent cries while everyone around is pregnate and constantly wondering when will it be me feels like a constantly ripping of the heart but until my time comes i will be the best aunty i can be to my nephews and nieces. sending positive throughts for you guys ❤️

chloc24 :

“Are you having anymore?” I’d have three more by now if they all worked, thanks for asking x

cristinaaac :

We are all in this together 🤍🙏

k8mcneese :

silent repost bc this is alllllll we hear🥲

Maddie🤍 :

I’m a hairdresser, I probably get asked at least 4x a day when I’m having a baby…. We’ve neen trying for almost 5 years and all o can bring myself to reply back to people is “one day” 🥺🙏🏼

Julia Costa :

I’m on the same timeline. Last year to this year. Still no baby. Sending you lots of love and praying for you on this difficult journey 🙏🏼

Savannah :

Literally everyone I know right now is pregnant and they’re saying “oh it’ll happen when it happens. Stop trying!” And it’s so discouraging. I feel like I have no one to talk to about it

LocGodNefertiti :

Sending baby dust your way beautiful 💕

forevrchi :

Its so hard to keep a smile when all you hear is “when is it yalls turn”. Trust me, we’ve been trying. I think its just not my time yet.

priscilla :

Everyone tells me… when are you gonna have a baby? But little do they know I’ve been trying since 2023. 💔 I feel your pain and I’m so sorry
