We don't just 'get what we want' to begin with. We pray to receive 'according to Gods will', not our own. And if your only reason for wanting to forgive is to 'get what you want' then you aren't truly seeking to forgive. And you would be operating in selfishness, and God will see that your heart is being deceitful.
Preachers that teach you get what you want, are not preaching the bible, if that's what you're getting this concept.

Forgiveness is a mix of effort, to make a conscious effort to release the feelings you hold against them, and time. Forgiveness does not happen over night, there is no magical formula. It is something you have to work at, and pray about.

God is not like our earthly fathers. He doesn't with hold any
good thing from us as punishment. The topic as I read it is,
you really have two issues going at the same time. I know
you are speaking to Ugly, but at the same time, I feel like I
understand what you are thinking, and just giving my opinion.
{ For what it is worth }
Forgiveness is being able to cast aside the hurt caused you.
If you are not getting pregnant and it involves the person you
feel you can't forgive, it would seem to me to be more a mental
and physical issue.
However if you are talking about two separate issues you can
be sure, God is not punishing you by withholding a child from
you. Pray for forgiveness, and ask the Holy Spirit to help you
forgive. Then believe you are forgiven and have done your part.
If necessary often times we have to go to the person who has
hurt us, and ask them to forgive us for our misunderstanding.

As for getting pregnant, relax and believe, in Gods time He
knows when it is best for you to have your precious little one.
I pray all works out for you. Never give up and keep believing
God for your miracle. He loves you ~

I have done some things such as fasting today... I was hungry and my prayers were answered, but I wanted to fast a little longer, because I felt obligated to show to God and myself that I am in this for the long haul.. And what I got was, 'that's all you needed to do was show your faith and commitment for this'.

Other times I did stuff expecting God to say, you don't have to go that far because your heart is there already. But what I get is ' Why are you trying to do the least possible and become lukewarm'.

God has a plan for everything and His thoughts are not our thoughts His ways are not our ways... If we could figure him out and direct our own lives giving ourselves just the benefits from him though manipulation... Than he really isn't the powerful and almighty God the bible tells us about.

Everyone was made in God's image... And God loves everyone enough to send his son to die for them, including Hitler and Osama Bin-Ladin... I know its crazy to think God would rather have seen us search and preach then search and destroy our enemies... But we are all his creation.

That thought makes forgiveness seem a little easier for me...

After a person repents of their sin, we have to forgive him:

[14] For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father also will forgive you;
[15] but if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. Matt 6:14-15 RSV

The best way to understand a person if you had walked in their shoes. Sometimes God put us in the shoes of our enemies to make us understand one another. We only think for oneself and careless with others has been through and which that is also being inconsiderate and which that isn't showing any love to your neighbors. God has seen what we all have been through and forgave us, and we should also pass down what He has handed to us. If a person has suffered the pain that their enemies been through and overcome the ordeal then you will understand and be able to help them to overcome what they had been through.

Matthew 6:12
And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.

Matt 18 32 “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 33 Shouldn't you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ 34 In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.
