Coping with announcements

Does anyone else ever feel like it’s SO easy for other people to get pregnant with a girl ? (Or boy if that’s your dg)

Why do women I know seem to get their girl but me.. I’m waiting, worrying .. where is she and will she ever be ?

My best friend is pregnant, 2 weeks behind me and she’s just found out gender. She really wanted a girl ( it’s her first baby) and yep, it’s a girl. As easy as that.

I know I sound so bitter, I am happy for her ... but it’s times like this it just brings my GD to the surface and I have to vent. Bluerghhhh.

This is exactly how I feel about a boy. People even have the statistics to show that -- higher conception rate of boys, higher birth rate of boys, higher statistics of having a boy after having had a girl and such, etc. All of my family members smoke and are fat and unhealthy and have all boys. Everyone in DH's family have a pigeon pair.

And here I am with an army of dead male embryos behind me.

We even know we get 50/50 ourselves from IVF, but our XYs keep being abnormal (and I only started having losses after swaying for a boy).

I'm just bitter at this point of anyone getting what they want. THAT sticks with me even beyond gender, that something I did in this life or a former or whatever (I don't really buy past lives, fyi, more saying that facetiously) has resulted in me literally never getting what I want.
