    I'm sorry. It is hard to watch other people get something so easily, when it's so hard for you.

    But, God has a special plan for you And your baby. Whether this baby needed to wait to come because they will help the world in the future, or whether you are supposed to have twins with fertility treatment, or whether an adoption is in store for you.

    If you want to be a mother, then you WILL be a mother.

    Know you have a place. Be the best sister and auntie you can be. Your time will come!

    My situation isn't the same as yours--all of my friends had children in the last ten years and I was very jealous of them because I wasn't involved in a relationship (or at least not a stable one) and didn't feel like I ever would have the chance to have a child.

    I felt very much like you did every time one of them would call and say they were having a child or got an invitation to a baby shower. Seeing other women who were pregnant or with babies made me feel so sad.

    Now that I am expecting, it's different. I have a friend who can't have children and who wants to adopt, but her husband is putting it off. She has been so supportive and gracious since she found out, but I know that it hurts her to watch others have what she wants.

    It's up to you how you choose to handle that sadness but speaking from experience, I wish I hadn't been so bitter about my friends having children. I feel like I didn't really have the chance to enjoy that time with them and the births of their children because I was selfish. It's easier to say knowing that I will have a child now than it is to do, but imagine how excited everyone will be when you and your husband have your first child.

    It's hard to cope with that's for sure, it's this awful jealousy that you basically have to put to the back of your mind or even talk to yourself about. I have pcos as well and hated people who could get pregnant so easily when I felt like I deserved it more. My doctor put me on metformin, which helps to control your sugars since many women with pcos are insulin resistant. It worked well for me, I went from no periods to one every other month. And once I decided to have a baby it took me 6 months...and I believe it only took that long because I had absolutely no idea when I was ovulating so I just had to wing it.

    I went through bouts of feeling down and resentful, there really wasn't much I could do but have a conversation with myself or my husband about it. I just tried to think that I'd have a baby when I was meant to have a baby.

    Good luck to you and don't be afraid to at least discuss options with your doctor, the metformin is a daily pill and that's all it took for me.
