TTC After a Loss

Rough Day Today

Newborn mentioned

Anyone got any hugs or good thoughts for me? My SIL is having her baby today...a scheduled c-section this morning. She has told me multiple times that she is indifferent to having a baby and has never once actually expressed any happiness about having this child or being pregnant. It will be the first grandchild for MIL and I can't help but get so sad and so angry that it's not us. We had been trying for so long when they got pg, and I always expected we would be the first. They don't even have the nursey done yet (as of yesterday afternoon). I mean, this c-section has been scheduled for weeks....it's ridiculous.

I also found out this morning that another couple friend of ours is pregnant. I'm happy for them, but I'm so hurt for me. I can't help but already get upset. I don't fit in with any of my friends anymore - they either have children or are pregnant. We told all of our friends about our 5th loss and not even all of them asked me at the time if I was ok or said they were sorry we were going through that. Now, we've had another one and they all talk about me when I'm not around about how I'll handle another baby or another pregnancy, but only ONE friend has ever asked if I'm ok. I feel like I'm the elephant in the room and that no one actually cares about me anymore.

To make it even worse, DH hasn't been feeling well (not in the cold/flu kind of way, but really dizzy and his balance is off kind of way). That is scary because it's not a normal cold or something and he is kind of a loss of what type of doctor to go to. If it were up to me, right now, I would just give up totally and run away with DH to Italy for the rest of our lives.

This post doesn't even begin to cover everything that is currently going on in our lives, but I had to at least get some of it out. I'm just in real need of some extra love, support, or anything else anyone has to offer. Thanks ladies. I hope your Monday is starting out infinitely better than mine.Sad

  • I'd absolutely love to give you all the ((HUGS)) and support you need.  I am so sorry you are having such a rough time.  It is so hard to be around others sometimes when they don't know what they should say to you or if they should say anything

  • Very sorry you are having a rough day. Having been on the "other" side (having a friend with a loss and others with pregnancies/babies), I now realize you have no idea what people go through. Even in this day and age, it seems almost taboo to speak of
