Baby in the waiting room. And it's breaking my heart. I feel so selfish for being angry and upset by this, but I can't stop crying. Hearing the LO just hurts so badly.
I feel like we are surrounded by healthy couples whose journey is just beginning; meanwhile ours is ending, much, much earlier than I ever could have anticipated.
5 cycles of "TTC" - 3 intentional, 2 not so intentional. 5 BFPs. My rainbow arrived 10/15/14. TFMC 08.02.13 at 19+ weeks. Everyday I grieve for my little Olive.
I'm really sorry this is happening to you right now. Is there anyway you can maybe wait outside for your appointment? If anything go to the reception desk and give them your cell number and tell them to call you when it's time and that you'll be waiting outside.
Every time I had to go to my doc's office and there were babies there, I'd lose it. I think it's normal. I wish none of us had to go through this.

In memory of Corbin Scott 10/28/11-12/3/11.
Heaven got another angel the night you left this world behind
Heaven got a little better the day it took you away from me
Missing you tonight, see you again sometime
For now I'll close my eyes and dream of heaven tonight
I'll love you forever
I'll like you for always
Now and Forever
My baby you'll be
I am so sorry, that is so extremely difficult. I hope the day gets better for you.
Married 11/23/11, TTC starting 10/12, BFP#1 11/30/12, Adoption of stepson finalized 03/19/13,Loss of our daughter at 20w4d due to incompetent cervix 03/27/13, BFP#2 06/28/13, DS2 born 3/1/14.
Hearing babies crying and seeing other pregnant women is so very hard. My dr too was ok with me waiting outside or entering through a back door. Definitely ask if this is an option moving forward for your follow up appointments as well. Wish I could give you a hug.

i'm so sorry that you're going through this...after we lost our daughter, and I had to go back in to see my OB last week, I could hardly stand it. It just all seems so...unfair! I understand where you're coming from. You're allowed to feel that way. It's okay to not be okay.
You are not selfish - your reaction is completely normal, given what you're going through. I remember the early months. I couldn't be near babies at all [even my own godson, who was born this past December]. It took eight months for me to be able to wait in the waiting room with other new parents and parents-to-be; it hurt too much, and I didn't want to break down and have to deal with the "what the crap is wrong with her?" looks.
I know you posted this earlier today, but maybe in the future, you can ask to wait outside? Or show up right at your appointment time and wait in a hallway/your car if your doctor is behind? I'm so sorry you're facing this. *hugs*
