* Stop trying and you will get pregnant.
YOU GUYS! How on earth do you stop trying when you are so desperate to get pregnant? When every single moment you think about how much you want to be pregnant and how much you want to be a mom. It really doesn't matter if I say "We aren't going to try this month" because in all honesty.. I AM going to try that month. I may not use an ovulation predictor kit, I may not monitor every single symptom for ovulation... ok, ya I will. I will totally monitor my body for possible ovulation symptoms. But know this- I will try NOT to monitor myself, but I will. Its a fact that I myself will just have to learn to deal with. The below picture is a picture of a "conception pillow". :) Who would buy that?! It is like $30!
Alright that lead us to the next phrase:
*Just don't think about it, you are thinking about it too much.
This one leaves me speechless. I want to say "ARE YOU KIDDING ME" in a really high pitched tone. If you ever want to hear me actually say it in that tone, just ask. I have thought about it nearly everyday for at least, AT LEAST 5 years. I didn't want to be pregnant during all that time, but I thought about it. I thought about the anticipation of getting pregnant, how long it would take, how many I will have, and what gender they would be. Believe you me, I don't want to think about it. I really don't. I wish I could think about kitties all the time or cleaning my house or decorating my house.. but I don't. All trains of thought lead back to pregnancy and having kids. Let me take you down a train of thought that happens in my mind, just to show you I can turn anything into thinking about babies. I think "Man, I need to clean the house.. tomorrow I should clean the floors really good.. the floors will need to be cleaned all the time when we have babies". I can change anything in my mind into being pregnant or thinking about having kids. So the moral of this long paragraph.. I CANT STOP THINKING ABOUT IT! I chose the below graphic because it had kids on it. I thought graphic.. being pregnant.. kids. :)
* Just have sex all the time and enjoy it.
1. How do you know I don't?! 2. I never stopped enjoying it! I very much enjoy this part of trying. I do agree that it puts a little pressure on the "act of love" but it still is very much enjoyable. Ok.. I will stop there on that subject. I don't want to get into the TMI zone.
Well guys, I think those are the three that are the most common. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy all the advice. However, that advice is not helpful.

is this directed at me? ;)
I totally understand where you're coming from. I get a lot of those types of comments because I'm single....
1)It will happen when you least expect it
2)It just means there is someone else out there who is better.
Both are "good" points, but how does that help me? You are like me, and I put my whole heart into everything. Its frustrating when things don't work out when you expect it to.....so keep trying. Someday your babies will love to hear how much their mommy wanted them! :)(and they will love to see the picture of them we printed out when they were only seahorses in your womb!!)
