lonely holidays?

If my LO hasn't arrived yet by Christmas time, I will be feeling extremely down. I'm having a very difficult time getting into the holiday spirit considering the year I had with BD and the depression I've gone through. I know I will love making the holidays special for my LO once he arrives but until then, I just can't seem to think anything other than how disgusted I am with myself for how alone I am this holiday season.

Re: lonely holidays?

  • I'm sorry you are feeling this way. Just think, this is the last year you will be this lonely again. One LO arrives you will always have him or her with you!

  • To try and cheer yourself up you can look around and see all the things you will get to do next year with LO.  I have been looking around and thinking of the traditions that I want to carry on and the ones that I want to start just the two of us.  I don't think that the holidays are easy on anyone, there always seems to be drama.  I hope that you can still enjoy your holidays and just look forward to years to come if LO hasn't made an appearance yet.

  • Aww, I'm sorry you are feeling this way. Maybe you should try decorating and acting as if baby has arrived. Read to your belly. Smile Sing christmas carols to your LO who is cooking inside.  It may lift your spirits, and who knows, LO may respond and dance along as you sing or read. :) I hope you feel better!!

    Must agree with you Lulu. I hiccoughed and then almost wet myself.

  • I know it's probably tough going through this alone.. But just think about the next holiday that will come around after he is born (if he doesn't catch xmas) You don't have too much longer!! Just try to stay positive!
