Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Tonight

I'd be willing to bet my dinner that my friend is announcing her pregnancy tonight since our whole group will be together.  I SO want to be happy for her.  But I'm terrified that I'll start crying.  These are my best friends, so I shouldn't be embarrassed, but I don't want to take away from her excitement. 

Part of me thinks that she would know better and at least have given me a heads up.  Another part knows that people don't always think things through like that.

Hope everybody has the most enjoyable evening possible.  Can't wait for next year!

Re: Tonight

  • I'm so sorry.  You're absolutely right - it's common sense for her to give you a heads up but, in her newfound pg-induced glee, she might not.  It sucks but I've personally found that very few people IRL really consider what we've been through. 

    It's going to be unbelievably hard, but if I were you, I'd put on my absolute best game face ever, smile through my tears, and keep the peace.  And then bolt afterward and weep into my steering wheel.

  • Best of luck.  Sounds like it will be a difficult night.

  • No matter what happens I hope that you get to enjoy being surrounded by friends and loved ones on this already hard way! Good Luck!!

  • Good luck tonight, hope you don't have to hear any pregnancy announcements tonight.
