I have been trying to get pregnant for many years, I seem to get very depressed when my close friends all give me the good news about them being pregnant, we are all in our early and mid 20's and still I'm the last one, no kids, some are on their 2nd, I have very irregular periods, is this normal to feel this way?

It's very normal to feel that way. So frustrating when it seems to be easy for those around you but you can't figure out why it isn't happening for you. On one hand you are happy for your friends, but it only brings up the disappointment for you all over again. I'd be surprised if you didn't feel that way!

I assume you have spoken to your doctor about the issue of irregular periods and that you have been trying for many years to get pregnant? Has any testing been started for both you and your partner? If not, that would be the first step.
If all the testing has already been done, what results did you get? What suggestions have been made by your doctor?

Well, yeah, it's normal. I would say you see a doctor. Especially sine you have irregular periods, it may be hard to pinpoint your fertile days. Other things could also be keeping you from getting pregnant, i.e your sexual partner. The only way to take a step forward is to see a doctor to be sure that there aren't any other problems keeping you from conceiving.
