Infertility

So I called the hospital...

 

I posted last night about a friend of mine who is in labor and I have been dodging her calls because I can't deal.

So anyways after much encouragement from the ladies on this board I put on my big girl panties Big Smile and called the hospital.  I congratulated her and said I would come by this afternoon.  I figure if I can get this out of the way now it will be better than stressing about it until I inevitably have to see them.  Plus there will probably be other people there so I won't have to stay long.  I also sent flowers. 

I have cried on the way to work, at work and I am sure I will be crying on and off throughout the day.  I just pray I can hold it together at the hospital but since I have started crying while typing this I am not very hopeful Sad.

So wish me luck! 

Thanks again ladies!

Re: So I called the hospital...

  • I know this is hard for you.  Good luck!  It is good karma too.  Keep your chin up and if you cry at the hospital...it is OK.  If your friend is a good friend she will understand and will appreciate your sacrifice and love for her even more!!!

  • You are a better friend then I am.  I have dodged babies for about 3 months now!!  I am proud of you.  You might have inspired me to put on the big girl panties and deal with it!  LOL

  • Hey, I hope the visit goes okay. I agree, that at least at the hospital you won't have to stick around long. I hate seeing new babies since the moms are always trying to shove them in my face. Like since you can't have a baby, here hold mine. I hope it goes okay and you can stay strong while your are there. I missed your post last night, so not sure if she knows of your struggles, but if she does I hope she is understanding.

    Hugs. You are a good friend and one day you will have a baby. We all will. That's what I have to keep thinking.

  • Aw, Yellow Daisy~

    I didn't respond to your post last night, because I probably would have just ignored my friend, and that makes me feel like a total heel.  You did the right thing, and you're a better person than I.
