TTC After a Loss

I'm tired of being so negative...

but its impossible for me to truly happy about anything baby related right now.

DH's cousin's wife just had their 3rd at 3am this morning. And the baby has our girl name (Lily Grace). I knew this already, but I guess its just worse now that the baby has been born.

Thank God we don't have to see them for the holidays. I feel horrible being so selfish, but I just need time to process it all.

And my SIL is about 3 weeks away from her due date. But I'm going to be a good SIL and fly down in February (they live out of state) for a week to help out.

2011 has to be better than 2010 was.

  • Heres to hoping this year.. will be better than the last for all of us!

    You are such a trooper. I HATE being around all the baby stuff- especially during the Holidays. It's so overwhelmingly difficult. I wish we could all hibernate until we get our BFPs. Hugs!!

  • Sorry. I find myself in that boat on occasion also.

    It can definitely be draining after a while.  Here's hoping 2011 is better than 2010.

  • Wow, you are a good SIL. My SIL is due on the 24th and I'm doing everything I can to avoid her. I'm hoping it may be easier when the baby is actually born but I'm really not sure. I'm with you for hoping 2011 is better!

  • You took the words right out of my mouth. I want to avoid everyone for Christmas but I know that I can't really get away with it. Life goes on whether I like it or not.

    You are such a good SIL for making plans to fly out and help. You are so much stronger than you think you are. I'm hoping and praying that 2011 treats you (and the rest of us) better than 2010! ((hugs))
