Sister is pregnant, I'm in MMM too

Hi everyone,
This week my sister told me she's pregnant. On one hand, I'm really happy for her, but on the other hand, I have mixed feelings. We've been trying for almost 3 years now and are going through IUI treatments. It'll also be our parents' first grandchild. I'm having a hard time with it because, somehow, you still hope to be the first daughter to get pregnant.
Sometimes I'm so scared that we'll never have a baby.
Are there more girls who've been through this? And how did you cope with it?

    Hey girl,

    I know what it's like. Everyone around you gets pregnant and you're the one who's left behind. A few years ago, I was newly pregnant, but unfortunately, it ended in a miscarriage. My sister's daughter was pregnant at the same time, and we would have been almost equally along. Now her little one is running around quite big, and I think, ours would have been that old by now. Meanwhile, she's already given birth to her second... so I know how you feel. Hope it works out soon. Maybe switch to IVF/ICSI if IU can't help you?

    Best,
