TTC After a Loss

Feeling Overwhelmed...Preg mentioned. Not Mine

 Feeling overwhelmed and looking for a Happy Face

 Tomorrow is the day I have been dreading for a while now...I am helping host a baby shower for a good friend of mine...she was preggo before me and was a huge support when I lost my baby but I feel like tomorrow will be another reminder of a mile stone I don't get to celebrate anymore...I am very excited for my friend as this is her first child but really not wanting to deal with the potential questions of "When will you have another baby"

  • ((hugs)) You are such a good friend. I don't have any advice, I just hope the time flies tomorrow and everyone is so focused on her that they won't even be thinking to ask you any questions.

    You said you were looking for a happy face...about about 5?! I hope the shower goes ok for you tomorrow. I don't really have any good advice, as I have this situation coming up in about 3 weeks, but just hang in there. *HUGS*

  • Hi, I hosted a shower for my older sister in my apartment back in April and I was really afraid I'd get asked those questions too. Thankfully, everyone was so focused on her and I was so focused on the food/drinks/taking pictures that no one really had the opportunity to ask and the day passed quickly. I hope it goes that way for you too!

    I am also co-hosting a baby shower tomorrow for a good friend and have already had a few mini-meltdowns thinking about tomorrow, so I know how you feel. I too am just hoping I can get through it tomorrow without tears since I don't want to take any of the focus away from her on her day.
