Awful day... Warning: babies mentioned

in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Awful, awful day today. One of the guys I work with, his wife had their baby Wednesday night a month and a half early. He was back into work today. The baby is doing great, but all anyone could talk about was baby this and baby that, and "Oh let me tell you about when I had my baby...". And then there's me, my natural MC just started yesterday after waiting for it for 3 weeks. So, while everyone around me was excited about the new baby, I'm loosing my 2nd in a row. I knew I should have stayed home today!

Don't get me wrong, I'm really happy for them and they have every right to be thrilled. They're an older couple, he's mid 50s and she's mid 40s, and from the sounds of it they had some trouble conceiving and had at least one MC. Just the timing of every thing, though, is just really hard to handle.

Thank God for the Beatles on my IPod to block everyone out, "when I find myself in times of trouble, mother Mary comes to me speaking words of wisdom, let it be."

But then my boss, who was the only one that knew I was pregnant to begin with, wrights me this heartfelt email, "I can only imagine today is not an easy day for you. If you ever need somebody to talk to, cry to, holler at?..you can see me." Which was very sweet of her, but it sent me over the edge and I just started bawling. So, I left for lunch and decided to take a half day today. I cried all the way home. Awful day...

    I am so incredibly sorry!!! Even though you're happy for them, it's just hard right now. I'm there with you. I'm so happy your boss is being amazing though. What a fantastic boss for reaching out. I hope each day gets easier and easier for you.

    As far as the tickers go- find one you like in someone's siggy and click on it. That will take you to the website. Then create your own and it will populate an HTML code. You just paste that code in your signiture (this can be found by going to My Bump, then login, then click on edit my avatar). Hope that helps! Let me know if you need more help!

    Yeah I had a similar week.  Tuesday was my first day back at work after I found out for sure I lost the baby (this was my first pregnancy) and then around noon on that same Tuesday one of our coworkers gave birth to her fifth.  It stung, but I'm happy for her.  On Friday she brought her newborn up for everyone to see, and I couldn't help but to be upset and have that feeling like I'm a failure (unwarranted, I know).  Once again, I'm happy for her, but it hurts me really deep inside and I pray to God that I can at least be blessed once. :/
