Pregnant after a Loss

Just not feeling myself

Which I guess will be the norm for a while, at least that's what I'm praying anyways.

Every time I let myself get excited, I take a step back and have to remember the reality of things. Yes, today I am pregnant and I love my baby. I just don't really know how to look forward to things when I can't guarantee anything. I know nothing in life IS guaranteed... except taxes. I don't know. I'm just rambling now.

I am blessed to have the people in my life that I do have. I am just feeling alone in the fact that my best friend is 1,000 miles away. A friend that I have here just isn't that supportive of this pregnancy. She "forgot" about the fact that I'm pregnant and threw a fit because I couldn't go to Six Flags with her. She actually told me to say I didn't know I was pregnant and get on the rides anyway. I told her she was out of her FREAKIN mind.

I'm sorry for rambling and ranting. I'm just feeling really down right now. Thanks for letting me vent.

  • Hang in there!  Today I am five weeks, and I keep thinking, only five weeks!  I totally understand the tug-of-war you're in.  You don't want to make plans and then see them fall to pieces, but you don't want to walk around in this cloud of negative thoughts.

    I'll be thinking of you!

  • That's exactly it! Thank you! I'm really glad to know I'm not the only one going back and forth on all of it.

  • Sounds like your friend is being an selfish idiot!

    It is definitely tough balancing the excitement with the fear. I'm a lawyer and booking trials past my due date but I can't tell anyone and don't want to jinx it by not booking them... Argh!
