bosses comments

So my boss is a male and I know men don't typically think about what they say or do but i'm reaching my breaking point. After I had Isabelle I came back to work after only 1 week. I wasn't made to come back but I knew sitting at home wouldn't do me any good and I felt bad for being gone. Within a week of being back I was being given an additional task only because my boss didn't want to do it anymore. It was a big commitment that has cost me time away from home & my family. I haven't said much and I've been trying to deal with it. Lately he's been backing out of other commitments at work because he is taking classes at night and doing more activities at church and he doesn't get to see his son as much as he'd like. He tells me about not getting to see his son knowing I can never see my daughter. I get that he probably doesn't think of it that way but geez how insensitive can you be? I want to say so badly that he should be thankful for getting to see him at all much less not enough because of things he chooses to do. My commitments at work take me away from home all of the time but I don't have the option to back out. I haven't asked for a second of special treatment with the pregnancy or our loss but how much more can I take? If I said I wanted to go home and hold my daughters ashes would that be acceptable? Oh and I do have children at home, I have two step sons and we are raising my niece so I do have a family and children who need me. I guess I feel like until I have a living child of my own the others don't matter to him. Ok I think that turned into a rant sorry.

I'm so sorry.  I have to deal with an insenstive boss too.  I just hope that they never have to go through what we have. ((Hugs))
