TTC After a Loss

I'm done, I really think I'm over it!

I still haven't seen AF! it's been 64 FVCKING days! I called my OB and she wasn't in so some other doctor called me back and told me "well it's not like you should be trying to have another baby again anyway, be thankful you don't have to deal with that mess every month" :/ REALLY FVCKER!?

I'm so over this waiting/ healing game! I can't go a day without crying. I hate IRL people. And the kids I used to love to play with, I can't even stand the sound of their names.

I get mad when people smile at me ....... "what the hell do I have to smile about?"

I just want to be at home alone! I have water and a treadmill that's all I need

oh and with all the running that I was doing I've haven't been able to lose weight! I'm still a fat @ss with no baby to show for it!

wow..... How's that for a self loathing pity party!

  • Sounds like you're grieving to me, not a pity party at all, and it's a process.  I personally think the Dr you spoke to today needs to receive a swift throat punch.  Just out of curiosity do you go to a private OB or one attached to Trident or MUSC?  I had to fire my OB back in March because her staff was so unprofessional.  That being said it's ok to not want to be around kids and I totally understand the hating IRL people,  I went through the same thing after my two losses (and they were early).  I think you've come to the right place to vent though and I am sending you a big hug today!!!

    BTW how the he!! are you running in this ridiculous heat?  I saw a girl running on my way home from work yesterday and I wanted to stop and give her a ride...then I realized she was running on purpose and I wanted to stop and recommed a shrink...hehe!!

    I hope your OB can call you and give you some answers to get AF going. I would also ask to speak to an office manager about that inappropriate comment.

    I can't believe the other doctor said that to you.. how do they know what your plan for the future is? WTF, unprofessional.. I would be calling their superior..

    Have they talked about putting you on Provera to restart your cycle? I've had to go on it twice for 60+ day cycles.

    I am sorry your having a rough time.. I don't think anyone expects you to be all happy go lucky.. you just went through a tramatic experiance. I am not even gonna try to pretend I understand.. my loss was a early loss, I can't even imagine carrying a baby full term and lose her.. my heart is absolutely broken for you and any one else that has to go through it. I hate that we all have had to lose our babies at any stage though.

    Just know that we are all here for you, we all have rough times, and while we may not know exactly how you are feeling, we are here for you to vent to and here to support you. If you need anything please know I am here for you hon.

    #1 How annoying is that doctor?!  Oh my!  Don't they get that you just want to be back to normal?  If I acted that insensitive as a teacher I would have gotten the longest email complaint to my principal

    #2  I totally "get" the disdain for others IRL...I am such a b*tch these days. 

    #3  If the treadmill and water doesn't work for you, I disinfected each room of my house from top to bottom to "deal" with my issues!  Embarrassed It sure helped to rub bleach vigorously onto the floor of the shower while cussing out the world.

    You are allowed to be bitter!  It all sucks, sucks, sucks!  Sorry!

  • I run because it's the only thing that keeps me going! If a sweat a lot then it leaves me less to cry out :(

    Viking- when I talked to the MFM panel last week they told me to wait until the end if this month before we started even talking about any kind of action!

    Thanks for letting me vent here, I try to hide it from DH because then he gets worried that I'm hurting this bad and doesn't like to leave me alone. I don't want him to worry about me, he had enough to deal with

  • Ugh I'm so sorry that was not preofessional! I'm sorry your body still isn't back to normal, I'm not sure what my normal is (since I was on bcp for so long) but my cycles have been around 40 days since I delivered my son it is quite frustrating!

    I know what you mean about the baby weight, at first I lost some of the weight because I think I was in too much shock to remember to eat, but I have gained it all back. I hate that people look at my friends who were pregnant with me and they just have "baby weight" because they have their babies in their arms, while I'm clearly just a fat girl since I have no baby. I was never tiny to begin with but I never had a stomach like this.

     I know it's different for everyone but I hate that no one wants to talk about him. It's not like an early loss where more people may not have known I was pregnant, Everyone knew it yet everyone acts as though it never happened. That drives me nutts! Yes I lost my baby, and talking about it may make YOU uncomfortable but I'm far more uncomfortable in this situation!! Ugh sorry if I took over your post a little here.

  • I'm so sorry you're having a bad day! Definitely sending prayers your way. That doctor is a *** and I would get a new one immediately. That is completely unforgivable and unprofessional and I think she needs a new job. 

    As for hating people and kids, me too! I'm so bitter all the time and ignore when people call or text me or want to hang out.  Don't feel bad at all, they can get over it if they think you're being rude. They don't understand what you're feeling and that's their fault, not yours.

    I say find a new doctor who can help you to get things back to normal.

    So sorry you're having a bad day :(

  • I am so sorry your OB is being insensitive. I know I said this in one of your previous posts, so feel free to tell me to be quiet Stick out tongue, but it may take another few weeks for AF to appear. Its somewhat normal after a full term birth for it to take 8-12 weeks to return.

  • I am so sorry...That Dr. was so out of line. Just as an FYI when I had my daughter it took me almost the same amount of time to get my period back. It was all over the place once it did and now 9 months afterI delivered is starting to get back into a routine. Alos when we met with the genetic counselor she told my DH and I that once your period started that was your bodies way of knowing it was okay to TTC...I followed my OB's recommendation that I wait at least 2 cycles..

    As for the fat @ss...It does suck to feel like a stranger in your own body without a baby to justify the little extra...but it will get better...although truth be told when I had to be in a bathing suit last weekend in front of a bunch of friends I had the same pity party...just PO'd that I didn't have a baby to show for my belly blubber...

  • Gigantic HUG 

    I'm really sorry you feel so sh*tacular.  I'm positive I would feel the same way.  Everything you're feeling is completely normal (doesn't make it any easier, I know).

    Heck, I've got a truckload of bitterness that I try and suppress every day.  I can only imagine the amount you have.  

    I REALLY hope AF shows up soon.  What that idiot doctor doesn't realize is that by getting AF, you're getting back to "normal".  It's part of the healing process.  An important part. 

    You are a strong, amazing woman.  You will get through this.  One day at a time.  Thank you for coming here and trusting us to vent to.

  • I am so so sorry you are going through this. That Doctor sounds like a d-bag to me. He shouldn't have said that, and I would file a complaint. I wish I could say something to make you feel better. I have been keeping you in my prayers and have been thinking about you. ((((HUGE HUGE HUGS)))) You have every right to feel the way that you feel, and I don't think it's a pity party. I think it's completely fine. I really really hope AF shows for you, soon.

I have so been there in those moments when you just want to shut down and go hibernate somewhere til you're pregnant again, or really until baby is safely in your arms. It is a horrible messed up feeling and I'm so soorry.

  • I am so sorry that you are hurting. My full-term baby was born on June 17 and passed away for no known reason on June 22. I know what you mean about no period. I want to call my OB and ask about it too. I haven't had a period since she was born. It is just really frustrating because I have no idea what my body is doing. I keep getting cramps and my boobs start to hurt and then it goes away and nothing happens.

    I also get the part about feeling like a fatty with no baby to show the reason I am fat. My husband and other people keep telling me I look great, but I look in the mirror and see a blob.

    Although I wouldn't wish this unhappiness on you it was kind of nice to see that someone else was feeling the way I am. What do I have to smile about? Why is everyone else so damn happy? Why can't I be anyone, but me?

    And like many other people have said, you deserve to have a pity party. You shouldn't have had this happen to you. And I hope no other jerks respond the way this doctor did.

  • I'm so sorry.((HUGS)) .. and wow, what a douche. That dr. had no right to say that, or to even assume you didn't want to "deal with that mess" ... I'd give ANYTHING to right now. I'm going on 12 weeks post d&c, and STILL no AF. I'm pretty much in the "over it" stage, too. Unfortunately, though, we DID NOT try real hard to avoid, and ended up with a c/p a few weeks ago, which makes me mad b/c now it'll be an EVEN LONGER wait until AF probably. I'm convinced my body hates me.
