Today, my husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for a year, with no success. My husband's unemployable brother and (still legally married to another man) fiancée announced they are expecting. They have 7 kids between the two of them already. FML

Deep desire
Today, my husband and I have been trying to have a baby for almost a year. I finally have a good chance to get pregnant this month, and I'm ovulating today for the first time in 3 months. My husband has the flu, he's highly contagious for the next 24 hours, and has been asleep since I got home from work. FML

Today, after nearly 5 months of trying for a baby, I found out my wife has continued to take the pill as it gave her a better idea of her cycle and thus when she'd be "most fertile". FML

Today, my wife finally actually started trying with life again, perfectly in time for me to have already given up on us at the start of the week, having spent way too long trying to fix things. She keeps on pushing all this future planning stuff when I'm just wanting to walk at this point. FML

Buckle up!
Today, I found out my wife is pregnant with our third child. This wouldn't be a problem but we only want two kids and I had a vasectomy 6 weeks ago (they take 3 months to be effective). We weren't careful only one time, and since it was difficult to conceive the two we wanted, we didn't think it would be a problem. FML

Today, my husband told my mother-in-law that we're trying to have a baby. She decided to call me and explain in extreme detail what positions to try, and when. FML

Awkward conversation ahead
Today, for the last two years of trying for a baby, my wife has been secretly still on the pill and takes a morning after pill every time we had sex. Funny, I thought we both wanted a baby, so I guess she doesn’t. FML

Today, I tried to get my wife to have sex with me, she told me she couldn't because she had her period. She's two months pregnant. FML

this may sound harsh but if you have so little sex (while your wife officially seems to be up to the idea of even having another child) than theres a 99% chance your wife as is is not really happy in her situation, sorry but unless theres some external or at least very acute reason for not having sex than that is a redflag for the state of the relationship. the absolutely last thing that will make this better in the long run is another child. People allways go for extra children believing it will magically make them happier with themselves and fix their relationship problems and all but that just won't happen. sit down with your wife, have an honest talk, reflect deeply (both of you) and try to get the spark back that for whatever reason seems amiss right now, but don't drag a child into this, it won't fix whatever is bothering your wife, it will only make it worse

You are trying for another baby. Your wife is saying she's trying for another baby. See the difference?

Why? Not why once in 7 weeks but why another baby? If it's "another" it means you already have at least one. Enough.
