You misunderstood me.  I didn't say it wasn't normal to have stress over not conceiving.  I said the fact it's interfering with your life so much is your immediate problem, and that's the obsessing over it.  The more stressed out you get, the more you obsess over it, the harder it will be for your body to function normally, including conceive.  I have no doubt you'd be a great mother, my sister suffered from agoraphobia but raised two wonderful healthy children.  That wasn't my point at all.  My point is, when you obsess over any disappointment in life, that's a problem, and you are writing on the anxiety forum, not the gynecology forum.  I assumed anxiety is a problem for you.  If it isn't, this is probably not the best forum on this site for you.  But if it is, then you're doing what we all do, which is obsess about things.  That just makes us suffer twice, once from whatever is really happening that's bad, and twice with the anxiety over it.

Hi!!!  

I totally understand where you are coming from. I honestly don't think it is an obession if you want a child badly.  You have found your partner that you love and are in love with, and wanting a child does not mean you are being obsessive.  Easy for others to say things like that..please don't take that to heart.  You are a beautiful person who only wants a child.  Nothing wrong with it..yes it will come in time and when the time is right.  But I don't think people should be so unkind and hurt someone's feelings when they are only expressing what would make them YOU happy and complete. You know I re-read your post and nowhere do I see that you have issues...the only issue I see is a woman wanting a child and not conceiving right now....so that would make any WOMAN anxious!  

take care...

Trying to conceive isn't the problem.  Obsessing about it, in other words the anxiety, is.  Life is full of roadblocks; those of us who suffer from anxiety turn them into obsessions and make them worse.  That's your problem.  When it's time for you to conceive, you will, or if you're unable to for medical reasons, you won't.  But that's neutral, it might cause stress, like any disappointment in life, but obsessing on it is the problem you need to learn to control.  Not that I ever have!

Gotta go with Bethany a bit here -- better to get a handle on your own problems before you add a child to the mix.  You're young and have plenty of time.  Are you in therapy?

I am not in Hannahs' head..but I think she is saying that her life seems messed up because she would like to be a mommy badly and is not getting pregnant when she is willing and ready to have a child.  Not that her current living situtation is a mess or that her mind is messed up.  

I agree with you that having anxiety and stressing about it all the time will certainly not help her situation.  Perhaps Hannah even though it is hard....just relax and enjoy your youth...you have so much time ahead of you!!!  When the timing is right, children follow.  You can have lots of love for now even without kids.  but they will come!!!  

Hugs
