i hate how my losses has affected my reactions to friends bfps...

babes12 · July 2010

i just hate it. i should be happy for them when i see their announcement about another pregnancy etc... but my initial thought is like a knife through my heart or punch in my stomach and then i honestly feel physically sick. Crying i feel so selfish for feeling this way but i can't help it.

so i really hate how my losses has affected my feelings towards others bfps. there's no reason i shouldn't be happy for them but i can barely muster a congrats. i feel so awful b/c that's not who i am. ugh.

I promise, you are not alone. I'm sorry you're feeling down. I think it's another lovely "side effect" of pregnancy loss.

I hope you have a better day. Smile

I know how you feel. If I hear about a BFP and she didn't have a loss or IF issues then I'm totally bitter.

I know how you feel. Unless it's said directly to me, I'm more than likely not to say congrats. It wasn't so bad a month ago, but I think my EDD coming up and all the stress from AF made me worse.

I'm in the 2ww so hearing bfp announcements is not making this any easier. i could be physically sick right now. ugh.

I totally know how you feel. It's like one of those cartoon boxing gloves just punched you hard in the gut. I hate it too.

I feel the same way. I've spent a lot of this month crying in the bathroom at work - there must have been 3 PG announcements this month alone.

I agree you are not alone. I am truly happy for those who are pg, but inside there is a sense of sadness and question "will that ever be me?" I am sorry, but I relate and feel the same way. HUGS

I feel the same way. I already am at my breaking point with all the bfp announcements among my friends. We have a lot of weddings this summer and I am hoping I am pg before I get more announcements.

babes12 · July 2010

lots of my friends are announcing their pg. w/ their 2nd and i was pg. w/ my 2nd when they were pg. w/ their first. i feel like a failure. here i sit 2 years later still empty handed. :::sigh:::
