TTC After a Loss

Don't know why I do this to myself...(pity party)

Ever since DH and I have had the talk and I know we are on the same page I find myself lurking on PgAL board. I so want to be there where they are now, I don't want to wait til January to TTCAL, but I know it's what I have to do. I know you ladies would understand, no one else seems to. I even had my FIL ask what names we had picked out and I'm like um we are not that far yet... not even trying yet... blah. ::sigh::

Ok, pity party over... Thanks for listening to that!! Here have a pumpkin cupcake!

Re: Don't know why I do this to myself...(pity party)

  • Truth be told I think a lot of us lurk over there.  And yes, it's a place we all desperately want to be.  We do it because we're human, and we have this innate desire to reproduce Smile  Don't be too hard on yourself, and thanks for the cupcakes!!

  • I lurk over there too....in some ways it helps to give me hope that these other women have experienced losses and have been able to have a baby. Try not to beat yourself up for lurking.

    We will be TTA until January too, so I understand your frustration....know that you are not alone! 

    And thanks for the cupcakes!

  • The cupcakes look delish. Now I want a real one!

     I lurk on PGAL too. I like to see that the girl's that have moved over and stayed over are doing well. It gives me hope! Here is a ((hug)) and I hope that we all find ourselves over there before too long!

  • I've poked around over there as well, and on the 1st Tri board. I was trying to get a feel for them (guess it was sort of like interviewing potential OB's w/o the interview). Don't beat yourself up for it! I think it helps, as well, not only for providing hope, but the more I see people pregnant, the better I am IRL with other people's pregnancies.

    This.  I am guilty to.  It gives me hope.  ((big hugs)) that January comes fast for you and we will all be joining them soon.

  • #1- those cupcakes look FABULOUS!

    #2- I can only speak for myself, but I will speak for multiple people anyway when I say this: WE ALL DO IT!  Don't beat yourself up at all!!!  Personally, I just really love to see all the success stories over there.  It really helps on the days when I am down and out to see that all those amazing women were once HERE and are now THERE and I just think to myself... ONE DAY, I will be there too.  Ginormous squishy {{hugs}}!!!

  • Sometimes I look over there just out of curiosity but I haven't looked in a while. We all want to be over there too. Every day when I think I'm feeling better, I actually seriously consider jumping off the TTA train pronto but I know I have to wait. It feels the same way as trying to control the POAS urge during the 2WW.  Our time will come. Our time will come.

  • (hugs) Like PP's have said, we all do it. I go over there every now and then. I'm super excited for a lot of them and I hope to join them someday. I think it's human to have that desire.

  • Guilty!!! I do it too.  I find myself reading all the birth stories and I don't know if this is weird but checking out the Friday pictures of how everyone's bellies are growing.  Like some of the other ladies have said...it gives me hope of a take home baby.
