How do you deal with pregnancy envy?

I am feeling down seeing posts and people around me that are of the same age with babies and toddlers, basically children of their own. Seeing posts of pregnancy and baby toys when I have been TTC for awhile now. I have no children and been having baby fever for quite sometime now. It has been really difficult juggling being happy for them but also wanting and desiring the same for myself. How do you manage your emotions if you have ever experienced something similar to this? #ttc #pregnancyenvy #Sadness #babyfever As I am in my 30s, there's always a worry at the back of my mind that I could never bare children or it'll be too late

While i was on ttc mode, whenever i see any pregnancy announcements i feel why is it not me. It hurts even more when u see your period or a negative test kit. I rmb i broke down whenever i see my period. My advise if you have been in ttc for more than a year and still no news, pls go and do a fertility check for both you and your hubby. Woman body clock is tickling very fast when we reach 30. I regretted going for the checks too late. If there is no underlying issues with both of you thats great. Anything can seek for further treatment. I went for fertility checks and it was difficult for me to concieve naturally so i went for ivf. i ended with miscarriage with my first try and here im 6 months pregnant at my 2nd try. Dont give up and one day you will be able to hold your baby in your hands. 🥰
