Pregnant after a Loss

I'm getting so frustrated...

DH live in a beach town- where typically in the summer we bike everywhere.  Partially b/c of the crowds but also b/c it's just fun.  We go on the boardwalk, starbucks, even dinner. 

Obviously at this point I am sitting the bike rides out.  But it's making me feel so out of sorts and just adding to the list of things that I can't due b/ I'm pract 40 wks KU! 

For instance-I would like to go to Starbucks right now- DH and his friend just told me they are leaving on their bikes to go.  SO what- I am supposed to be a debbie downer and say- I want to some so we hae to drive?? And there is a craft fair on the boardwalk- which is too far to walk in this heat to and there will be no parking close.  So WTF am I supposed to do with myself?

  • That would be annoying. I understand. DH always goes to Starbucks with our friends and just sit around and talk. I used to go just to get out of the house, but they stay out to late for me now. And I can't have my usual drinks so I just don't go.

  • I have to say that it's pretty messed up that your DH and his friend are going to the 'bucks and leaving you behind.  Just tell them that you really want to go and/or get out of the house.  He can't expect you to stay behind just because you're cooking a baby!

  • Can you curl up and fit into one of those trailers that goes behind bikes where kids sit? Big Smile Seriously, though, that would be very frustrating.

  • I'd be pretty frustrated too.  I hope that your DH doesn't leave you out like that very often :(  He just may have to suck it up, be the doting hubby, and drive somewhere!

    But this is me . . . the girl who lives in a city that forces you to drive almost everywhere . . .

    Let me clarify...

    DH had no idea I was interested in Starbucks outing until I said something and as soon as I did say something he grabbed the car keys and made no mention of the bike ride.  HE is awesome...would do anything for me.  It's my own frustration of not being able to do what I typically can do. 

    My frustration is not with him, it's with me!

  • I can understand your frustration.  DH and I don't live in a beach town by any means, but we love taking our bikes places.  We haven't even got them out of the shed and inspected for the season this year because DH doesn't want to go on rides without me.  We likely would have biked or walked to the sandwich shop we went to for lunch today, but we drove (6 blocks!) because the heat is so incredible, and I just waddle (it would have taken a good long while to walk it). 

    We're almost there (of course you're ahead of me even) ... hang in mama!!

  • (((hugs))) I understand, it is frustrating dealing with the limitations that pregnancy puts on your body ... When your mind still wants to keep doing the things you love. The good news is your almost to the finish line, soon you will have your baby & you can push the stroller to starbucks with DH.
