This is a group for laughing at and mocking the awkward, ridiculous, and sometimes painful things we endure while trying for a baby. Salt and bitterness allowed, infertility sucks and there are few havens that are available for venting the frustrations that go along with it.

The Rules:
Posts should be related to trying for a baby, and must contain an image or gif, no text-only submissions.
Trollingforababy is for people who are trying to conceive, and are not currently pregnant.
No discussion of BFPs (positive pregnancy tests), pregnancies, or living children.
No gifs or images containing pregnant women, human babies, toddlers, or small children.
If you don’t want to see it, we don’t want to see it. Don't repost things that bothered or upset you.
No gifs or images that are graphic, bloody, or gruesome, especially in the context of miscarriage. These posts can be extremely triggering for our members, especially those who have experienced loss.
No abortion debate. We are a staunchly pro-reproductive choice community. Talking about first-hand experiences with termination is fine - please do so without using the word abortion as it tends to attract harassment.
No solicitation or self-promotion.
We love gifs and trolling but there is a 2 post per 24 hour post limit (per user).
No throwaway accounts for posts or comments.
Please use the [NSFW] tag when appropriate.
Please report inappropriate content! We want this to be a safe space where we can laugh about trying for that elusive baby. While we are trollingforababy, we do not tolerate general trolls who mock sensitive reproductive subjects. We are pro ART, and are accepting of all reproductive journeys. |

Thanks for rubbing salt in my biggest wound, meta! It’s lovely to scroll through memes only to be slapped across the face with a reminder of one of my life’s greatest sorrows. The diabolical ad placement for things I tend to comfort shop for is also a nice touch.
Naturally it's going to affect my beach holiday because my work wouldn't give me the week I asked for and gave me shark week off instead.
Guess I can feel hormonal and bloated whilst sipping cocktails 🍸 abd wearing my finest tampons.
Didn’t even get a damn blanket
Can’t wait to see what stages of repulsiveness I’ll reach this time. More hair loss? More weird bumpy skin? More gross bruising from progesterone in oil
Stay tuned to find out!
3 chances this year, at least that's how see it. Second FET in July worked until it didn't...then got spontaneously pregnant right after in August, then September. All three were early losses. Had an early loss last September on the day of my fucking endo surgery which got cancelled and I miscarried. I legitimately can't catch a break. Now my SIL is pregnant with the same due date as my second FET. Haven't talked to her since she told us. Idc anymore lol.
I wonder why… 🫠
Maybe this part doesn’t need to be a team sport.
I have to lie down or stand up and have one leg up/resting so the muscle is relaxed. Can't help but to think I'm doing the Yamaha death pose before getting my shot. And tbh? Mood.
I swear 3/4 of the women I know are pregnant or have a baby rn what the fuck man 😭
Announcing during the holidays is so played and predictable 🙄🙄
Never gotten naturally pregnant, though pregnant 3 times via IVF (all miscarriages). I am on continuous BC because my endo and adeno are incredibly severe, so it's not happening naturally anyway. With the meds, pain, sadness.... we just don't anymore. We love each other and recognize the situation. I'm happy for those who can still get it on, it's just hard to not feel abnormal.
Optional answers on my end:
The polyps are gone, but at what cost 🫠
If I could not have another ectopic, that’d be greeeat.
We ride at dawn 🤠
😂😂😂
delulu and delulu-er
I feel like this could be a universal experience in this group. Got sick of seeing positive tests, have come to the dark side
