TTC After a Loss

Can things just get more craptastic? (multiple BFPs mentioned - not mine)

Ok, so my close co-worker just told me the other day that she is pg (very early). Not a surprise for me because we knew she was planning it anyway.  I took that news in stride and it does not bother me to be around her talking about it. She knows about my situation. 

Today I find out two other younger women in our place of employment are pg too and at appoximately the weeks I was supposed to be at. I feel like screaming out to everyone "I AM SUPPOSED TO BE 15 WEEKS TODAY!!!!!!"  It is just too much. I can accept being around one pg woman that I know well and have worked with for many years. But knowing there are three of them out there and that I would have probably been the first to deliver in the spring really pisses the shiz out of me.

  • Left HugRight Hug  Oh, so sorry you are going through this.  It's such a crappy thing hearing others are pregnant and knowing you're not anymore.

  • I'm so sorry.  That has to be so hard for you to hear.  I know I'd be feeling the same way.  This is one of the things that's good about my office...all the ladies here with me are much older than I am, and not, uh, of reproductive age anymore.  None of them ever had m/c though, so I'm alone in that respect.  Hugs to you!

    2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

  • Yeah..I don't want to be bitter about it and make these ladies feel bad. I mean, I had one healthy pregnancy before and no one was mean to me about it. I just have to bite my tongue.

    I think it's just a double whammy for me especially this week is probably when I am supposed to O and we are TTAing for now because I have to get myself fixed first.

  • Hugs to you! I had to chuckle at your comment about no one being mean to you when you had your "healthy" pregnancy...I so feel like being mean to any one I see who is pregnant right now it's not even funny. Thank God for this board, a place where we can come and vent to others who understand.

  • (((hugs)))  I wouldn't be above telling them that I did have a loss though, and that I would/should have been the number of weeks they are now.  Not in an ugly way, but in a just FYI so the comments can be kept to a minimum kind of way.  People are much more respectful now that they know of my loss, and those that aren't aware I tell when they get offensive so they don't think I'm just some b!tch who doesn't want to participate in the "yay I'm so preggars!!!" conversations.

  • That is difficult. You are valid in feeling this way. I hope somehow it becomes easier for you somehow. I wish I had some words to comfort but have nothing. Just know I totally understand how you are feeling.
