Parenting after a Loss

This might be a little mean...

but I don't want to really go to my friend's baby shower today.  It's her 2nd baby - she never had a shower with the 1st.  She was living in FL and moved back to NY a year ago and I have seen her TWO times!!  She hasn't even met LO yet and I can't help but to feel badly about that.  I feel like the friendship has almost totally fizzled.  I have been tempted to write her an e-mail or something telling her how I feel but then I feel bad burdening her since she is KU and has a 18 mt old.  But it's taking all the fun out it- hence me being so not into her shower.

  • Well, if you RSVP'd, you should go, but I have 2 friends like that, and I just stopped going to their events. I figured they don't go out of their way for me, so I'm not going to go out of my way for them.

    I'm going...I just feel blah about it.

  • Just think of today as the last chance GTG. Either you reconnect or you move on. How close do you live to one another? Maybe you will reconnect due to having babies close in age

    This... good luck today.  Hopefully you'll at least have a little fun

  • I hope it turns out better than you expect.
