Re: So today at Hobby Lobby...

  • Hugs to you--that does sound sucky. It's awful to be going about your own business and be hit by it all out of the blue like that.

    On another note, it's so exciting that you've made the decision to move forward with DE IVF. I really hope you find success with that!

  • Hugs. Im sorry….those rough moments do suck. 

    I photograph a lot of newborns (they are always under 14 days old) and so i get a little knot in my belly sometimes. October through December it seemed like all my sessions were brand new LOs

    It can hard to keep it together sometimes. 

    Wish we were close by…..Id join you for an adult beverage.

  • I totally know what you mean. I work at a family-oriented educational/tourist attraction... nothing but small children and pregnant women all day. Sometimes it is all I can do to plaster a smile on my face and keep it together until I have a moment to myself to dab the tears from my eyes. Then I put the smile back on and go back to work. So sorry you had a rough experience!

  • I too hate that! It's almost like the man upstairs wants to torture me. How about the same day AF shows up & u c one of those hpt commercials, or u go somewhere and a pg woman is within arms reach of u. Stuff like that happens to me all the time. I hate getting invites to baby showers (secretly I'm soooo jealous), but if I do go I try to be mature about it
