Frustrating!! Pregnancy everywhere!

Well on 3rd month of TTC and trying to be relaxed about it but not working really well ha ha! But a girl at my work just announced she is pregnant. I am happy for her and wish her all the best but can't help but feel jealous.
I was at a wedding last week and lots of people there with babies and toddlers plus two couples i know are expecting. It just seems everyone is getting pregnant except me.
So frightened in case it doesn't happen for me and i end up feeling like this all the time. Doesn't help when friends get pregnant by 'surprise' or get pregnant real quick and tell u 'we didn't have to try long'.
Plus my husband likes to tell people we are trying. I like how he is excited about it but i am dreading people he has told asking me about it - 'where's the baby?' Blah blah.
I've only told my sister and best friend who are good supports.
Does anyone else feel like this?

I'm on my 4th month ttc and it feels like forever.
I tried talking to my best friend who has a toddler about it but she apparently got pregnant the first time she had unprotected sex.... Not the the first month but literally she had unprotected sex once and got pregnant. So obviously i now hate her (kinda joking, also kinda not).
That best friend and my sister-in-law both want a 2nd soon but this will be my first. In my mind i feel it will be the worse thing in the world if they get pregnant before me. I love them both but it doesn't matter as i feel it's my turn.
It's hard not to feel like way when it's something we want so much.
I feel like a horrible jealous person all I want to do is be happy and share it with them but the fear of being upset about it not being fair what happened to me over comes it!
Our time will surely come when others will look at us and think the same! It’s a natural feeling xx
As the months roll on and I get closer to that year mark, I can’t help but feel worried, it’s literally all I ever think about! My husband and I try to remain positive, keep ourselves busy and focussed but it’s not always easy is it!
