I'm sure it was a mass text and she doesn't know about my loss, so i'm not "mad at her" but I just can't be all excited, happy for her, at least not yet. Maybe one day.
I think it hurts more b/c of the due date thing. A constant reminder of where I should be.
My MOH is due 2 days after I was supposed to be, and it takes everything I have to talk to her. She knew she was pg when I told her I was, but instead of telling me she was pg too. She told me how she and her husband had decided not to have anymore kids (they have 2) since she was getting older, they only have a 2 bedroom house, they really can't afford it, and she doesn't have a car big enough to carry all three kids. So she told me she was pg 2wks after my m/c when I was on my way to a romantic weekend away with DH.
Now, I realize there was never going to be a good time to hear that news, but telling me on my way to a get-away, seems shitty. And why she didn't tell me she was pg when I told her I was, I'll never know.
Today she was asking for advice on carseats. I don't fuccking want to talk to you about your carseat issues. Mmmmkay?
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut, back to you (sorry for the digression!! Clearly, I'm bitter.) - I'm so, so sorry. And I completely understand.

and she's your friend for why??????????????? Good grief, that's just beyond insensitive. Holi Cannoli. I'm sorry you have to deal with that, that totally sucks.

She's family. In case you haven't spotted a trend, my family sucks lips and as$holes. They're also from NJ. I blame a lot of it on the toxic waste. Something makes me think that their clear and obvious lack of tact has to be a direct result of their proximity to a SuperFund Site. Needless to say, I'm not visiting anytime soon.
It's okay to be bitter and mad at things like this. I have a friend who is pregnant and her due date and mine were like 4 days apart. It is so hard to hear her talk about all the exciting things that I should also be experiencing. Last week she pulled out pictures of her latest U/S I immediately got tears in my eyes and started a side conversation with another friend who is having trouble ttc. These things just suck. Life is not fair.

That stinks =( We are still waiting for news on our baby b and it doesn't look good and a frind of mine due 2 weeks prior to me said "well you already have a kid so it shouldn't bother you too much if you m/c this one". What? What the h does that mean?
I just don't think people who haven't suffered a loss know how hard it is on you. I know I feel like a failure almost. Like I did somthing wrong. Then you are constantly surrounded by reminders.
((hugs)) Hopefully she was just sending it to everyone and had no intention of upsetting you.

I'll keep you in my prayers that you get good news.
Wow, your friend is just terribly insensitive, that's awful. Whatever happened to "if you have nothing good to say, shut the eff up" or something along those lines.
Who knows! I just about feel out when she said that too! I was like, y should it be easier to lose a baby just because I have a child? We are really sudeo friends these days anyway and more forced to chat b/c my bf still lives near here and their husbands work together on the same ship. Then Lucky me she is moving close to us in April! I just can't wait. Oh well, some people are just that out of it when they make comments.
Thanks, maybe it will be good news, of course I have some hope, but I am trying to brace myself for the worse.
GL in the TTC and I hope it happens again soon for you.
awe i'm sorry buddy. big hugs!!!! i'm not feeling too cheery myself this evening, everything is too stressful. i detest TTC. can't we all just say i want to be pg. now and have it happen.

Me and my bff were due 4 days apart and she has a 7 month old right now and I DO NOT! Everytime I see her baby I think that I should have a baby that age and it does hurt but she is my bff and seriously I am happy for her. I know that someday I will hold another baby in my arms so I try not to be bitter to anyone else.
Re: I am in tears and I hate my life
I understand. One of my best friends was due 2 weeks after me so all of her milestones sucked because I should have had them too.
I wonder if she thought you wanted to know or if it was a mass text message and she didn't realize. Either way it sucks.
(((HUGS)))

Does a well-placed lolcat improve things any?
