Success after IF

I don't even know any of you...

...but I feel as if you are my family.  You have been with me through the heartache of IF, through the anxiety of pg, and through the joy of birth and beyond.  I cannot stop thinking of Brooke and her DH holding their baby girl for the last time, and my heart is absolutely breaking for them.  Even though I don't know her, I can't help but feel that this is happening to all of us.  I don't even know what to say... I just feel like I had to reach out to all of you.  Go kiss your LO or hug your DH or rub your belly.  The happy moments seem to be too quick and fleeting.

Re: I don't even know any of you...

  • Very well said!  I'm much more a lurker than a poster, yet I feel like I "know" a lot of you out there.  This community is amazing.

  • Ditto - it's amazing how connected a bunch of women can be through the click of a mouse.

    I can't imagine saying goodbye to my precious baby - I don't think I'd ever be able to let go, I'd just want to hold her forever. I am praying for them & thinking about them constantly right now. I hope they can find peace & strength in each other, their families, and friends. Why is life so unfair?
     

  • Dh is wondering why I'm crying because technically I've never met her but I feel as if I know them and as a mother, I couldn't imagine going through what must be THE hardest thing in life..loosing your baby..

  • It just makes me feel sick. I just cannot even imagine what they are going through. I am one of the ones who reads their blog daily, looking forward to it every morning. They were doing so well, making such progress. It just isn't fair. I feel so blessed right now and so sad for them. I am going to go kiss my babies.
  • Agreed-- I am so devastated for them. I just can't stop crying.

  • My thoughts exactly!  There is a reason I have been a member of "The Nest" for this many years!  This place is like another home or family.  Lots of support, lots of friends!

  • I've been a lurker over here for some time (I just recently changed my screenname)... I don't post because I feel like my journey was so much shorter and easier than any of yours, but I have to say that it's amazing to see such love and support from people who don't even know each other. I have learned so much from reading your posts... it feels like a family, not a message board full of strangers.

  • I absolutely agree!  I felt like my heart was ripped out when I read about Annaleigh and I don't even know them IRL.  The support here is amazing and we really do care about eachother.
