TTC After a Loss

I just need to scream

DH told me this morning our SIL (his brother) is due at the end of June with her second. His family lives in Israel so I had no Flucking idea she was even pregnant. They agreed not to say anything to me because they didn't think I could handle it. I  know they meant well, but I just feel completely insulted. Like waiting until now makes it any better?!?!?

And my best friend just had her baby.

So now not only am I not having a baby next weekend, my first loss has been  sandwiched between two very real and present reminders. 

Why is it, just when you think you are doing OK - that you've grappled with the *** the world throws at you think you've handled it well, it just shites on you again?

  • Ugh! That's awful that they didn't tell you. And you're right - just when you think you've got things under control....

  • BLAH! ((hugs))
    Me(22)-DH(25) Started dating- June 2005 Married-Feb.2011 TTC#1 Since Jan. 2012- BFP Jan 31, 2012 3-15-12 Missed M/C at 10 weeks 3 days (baby measured 7w 3d)
  • I'm sorry. I would be upset too. I can relate to the friend having a baby too. I was supposed to be pregnant with my two friends growing up...all of us unexpectedly (with my first m/c at least). One had her baby last week and the other is due a week before I would have been in August. I thought I would be ok with the first one, but I almost cried when I saw the pics on fb. I'm happy for them but feeling left out.
    BFP #1, 12/22/09 - DD#1 born 9/2010
    BFP #2, 12/12/11, m/c 12/25/11

  • Ouch. I would be insulted too. And finding out later in the pregnancy doesn't make it any better. I'm sorry you were blindsided. And ((hugs)). Life just sucks sometimes.

  • I'm so sorry. I would be upset too. Finding out later about the pregnancy just makes it worse. And I can relate to the other part - a close friend had her baby yesterday and I'm really having a hard time getting past my sadness - I should have a two week old right now. Big ((hugs)).

    To the bolded: it's not that we can't *handle* it. I'm generalizing here, but I'm pretty sure that we can handle anything thrown our way. We just don't want to be blindsided by, "OMG! I'm KTFU!! We weren't even trying/I was on BCP/I can't believe it happened in our first month/I didn't even want to be pregnant right now." STFU, biitches.

    Exactly. And DH totally blindsided me with it this AM. I was still in bed, at my brothers house (where I couldn't freak out in private) and it only slipped out because DH was saying his brother is having a hard time dealing with his wife, because she's a  raging hormonal *** rigt now (she's generally really sweet) - why I ask? Oh, because she's having a baby next month. Yay, real tact there DH.
