I can't do this...

in Pregnant after a Loss

I feel overwhelmed with worry! My DH thinks I need to keep my mind off the pg and bump less. I think he's right. As much as I love everyone, I need to find something non baby related to get me thru these next few weeks. Just thought I'd let you guys know. I don't want my budies thinking I've fallen off the face of the earth.

I promise I'll come and check-in every couple of days instead of every hour. Talk to everyone soon.

Becky, Gallery and Tiffany- I'll rely on you guys to keep me posted Wink.

I'll PM you all my email too.

    Thanks for checking in Jenny.  I was wondering about you but figured you were laying low for the first few days post bfp.  Definitely pm us your e-mail and find a hobby.  Work has been consuming most of my time and I started reading twilight and that's been a great distraction. In 2 more weeks my job will be significantly less demanding and I'm scared I'll be suddenly all consumed with baby thoughts.  But one day at a time...

    I wish work would distract me....that's when i bump the most Confused. I'm a big reader usually only on the train to and from work. Maybe, I'll start reading more at night. Any other suggestions?

    I feel the same way sometimes- like I wish I could fast forward time to where I "know" everything will be ok :)

    Luckily, I am away for work the next 2 weeks- so I am hoping this gives me less time to stress over all of the "what ifs!"

    I keep repeating- Today I am pregnant and love my baby when I am feeling down!  and I also reading every night before bed...

    I used to read a lot but I've really stopped since being in school so I don't have many recommendations.  But I think there is a book club on the regular nest.  Try there and I bet you'll get tons of recommendations.  My fall back, always enjoy, author is John Grisham though.  Oh, another thing that sometimes distracts me for a while is the money matters part on the nest. 

    Just trying to think of other things, what about redecorating a room in the house?  Or starting a small veggie garden?  Planning a vacation?  Are you crafty?  I have a great camera and keep meaning to get back into photography.  Or scrap book?  Or sew a quilt or something?  I don't know.  I'm clearly going to have to do some thinking soon.

    When I get overly antsy or bored with the nest, I try to distract myself by reading all the news websites.  It's boring but educational. ;)

    I took up knitting.  I've found it very relaxing.  I'd also recommend doing deep breathing exercises when you get anxious.  You can download some good ones from iTunes.  Take care of your self!

    Hon, I totally understand. To be honest, the past 5 weeks have been really stressful- like the worst 2WW ever. I just want to get to 2nd tri and allow myself to feel happy & look forward to having a baby. 

    I want to send a card out to you, but I also know how scary it can be to be "congratulated."  I'll wait a little while until you are more comfortable.

    A bump break isn't the worst thing in the world.... I am even finding I'm spending less time on here, too. I'll be in touch... take care of yourself!
