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"
Re: Feeling Overwhelmed...Preg mentioned. Not Mine
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!

Thanks ladies...and espcially thanks for my 5 happy faces....I want the sole focus of tomorrow to be about my friend...She deserves it...Praying the day goes smoothly and I am so busy nobody even knows I am there...
((big hugs))
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.
