meh. I just printed out 50 pages of someone else's thesis to read for mine since they're on the same topic, then actually started reading it and found out that it's horribly written, and she missed a lot of information I already have in mine and has only provided me with one piece of info I can use. Grr. What a waste of paper.

Oh my god this. Got an email today from a friend about her "big ultrasound" and it's a girl, and while I'm so happy for her, I wish she would have waited till Monday when AF is gone because it feels like a knife. And I tell myself "how could she have known I got AF yesterday". But damn, why does it have to hurt so bad when I really wish I could just be happy for her.

I have 8 close girlfriends that are pregnant right now. 8!!! When I say close I mean I talk to them all once a week. There is no way I can avoid them all. I am constantly bombarded with stuff like this and I love them and am thrilled every thing is going well but it stings every time. I would love nothing more but to be pregnant with them.
Oh.My.God. How do you handle it? I think I would have to shut off my phone and become a hermit. Or move to a deserted island. Or get therapy...I'm thinking I should maybe do that anyway. But damn that has to suck so bad

I just have ONE friend preg. and I'm avoiding her like the plague - I couldn't even imagine that many!! = I think I even said to DH, "at least we don't have a bunch of friends who are having kids yet..."
and to this friend who's preg - "yes I'm excited for you, but right now my loss is more important to me than your pregnancy, so I am putting myself FIRST until I feel ready to deal with you."
ETA - wording, spelling - and that actually felt really good to get out
I am mad as hell that you are leaving for the first 6 months of our marriage. I am mad as hell that it will be that long before we really get to try again to have a baby. Since AF has yet to show up and I'm scared to take Provera as we haven't exactly been TC/TA on the off chance some miracle happens. I hate that if we are lucky enough to get pregnant again, I won't be anywhere near my family and friends. I'm mad as hell that you would rather spend time with everyone else BUT me before you leave. Basicially, I'm just mad. And I don't know what to do or say about it. I can't tell you any of this because I don't want to fight.
Dear Coworkers (whom I have worked with for almost 2 years, many of whom are female)-
Thanks for not pointing out the fact that my bra has been CLEARLY visible through my cami all morning. I admit I was sleepy and bleary-eyed when I got dressed, but a "hey, maybe you should button your cardigan" would have been appreciated before I met with our CFO.
Yeah...

Dear DH: I'm truly happy that you finally found your birth mother, but I'm not emotionally ready to meet her. It's going to be stamped in my brain forever that the day you finally got to talk to her is the day I started bleeding and we found out that LO stopped growing. I will never be able to separate those two events. Ever.
Dear pregnant friend: Thank you so much for your support. Somehow you have found the exact balance between being there and giving space. I want to hear all about your pregnancy when you start talking to me about it again, but I'm scared I will always look at your LO and hurt b/c I'm trying to picture our LO at that age.
When I asked you today to run a meeting for me because I had an urgent issue come up, I lied. I just didn't feel like going to the meeting and frankly, I'm in charge so that's how it works. Sorry.
PS - At least you're getting brownie points for it.

Oh jeez. Apparently she has no clue what a miscarriage entails if she thinks it's something you could be confused about having had or not had. I would have said something snarky like, "Hey you're right! Maybe I am still knocked up! Let me go buy some nursery furniture right now! So glad you're here to set me straight."

For the first time is almost 5 months, I woke up wanting to be pregnant again and not fearing the possibility of another loss. So, seriously, this lack of AF needs to stop and you need to get your $hit together. I have 2-3 months left of my forced TTA time, so you should have plenty of time to start acting right. If not, we are going to have some problems.
Sincerely,
Your Owner

Yes I think you are stupid for snorkeling in Belize while pg, but I think you are even more stupid for not calling your OB about the huge rash on your leg that appeared the morning after snorkeling. It's been over a week, the rash has gotten bigger and you still haven't called about that. And please do not complain to me about having to have more bloodwork done next week at your OB's office. I just had a fallopian tube removed, 3 liters of a stranger's blood pumped into my body, multiple IVs and will be having blood drawn for the next who knows how many weeks to make sure they didn't miss anything during surgery, you know since it's very difficult to see everything through 2 liters of blood pooling in my abdomin.

Is she stupid for snorkeling generally or stupid for snorkeling in Belize? Just curious as I was born and raised in that country!

Get a suitable apartment, get a job and take care of your baby. Visiting it in foster care is not enough. That is your baby, not the government's. It's your responsibility, no-one else's. By that baby's first birthday, they will take your rights away and adopt him out. Smarten up!

I will admit...I do get down sometimes when I think about certain things in my life. And for a while I was suicidial, I won't front. And then I think about my husband and how I couldn't leave him. And I think about my close friends and family, who would be devastated and I couldn't leave them.
But most importantly, I think about you, Hater. I think about how you would show up to my funeral and act like we were best friends and shiiit when you know that's a damn lie. And then I think about how you wouldn't return calls or texts but all of a sudden, you're sitting around my family acting like you and I go way back. And then I think about all the times I told you about my plans and you brushed them off like they weren't anything.
So Hater, sorry to burst your bubble but I'm staying alive. Not for religious reasons, not because of the love for my husband. No. I'm staying alive solely JUST TO PISS YOU OFF. And what's awesome about this, Hater...is that I'm going to be so successful, you'll be furious at the fact you let our relationship slip through your fingers.
Fcuk you,
foxxy.

My DH is military and left on a 4 month deployment a couple of months after our wedding too. The bright side was we BDed ALOT when he came home and I got pg pretty quick. It didn't stick though, but I was so happy he was home for all the crappy stuff!
He's been on 3 deployments in the past 2 years and both of us are so stressed right before he leaves that we end up being really snippy with each other...the booklet I got says it's normal apparently...lol

Okay. So I took today off of work because my cramping was really bad and I kind of just needed a day to... zone. I really don't want to go back to work tomorrow because it's hard seeing all the kids there (I am a toddler teacher and there are also infants). It just kind of upsets me that all of these people have wonderful cute babies and I am left with an empty belly.. =/ ALSO my "best friend" isn't exactly acting very supportive. I told her in a Facebook message about my loss (she's busy a lot and doesn't live near me) and she said she was sorry and then proceeded to tell me about this awesome Red Sox game she's going to on Thursday. (She KNOWS I love the Red Sox and really want to go to a game) so it was kind of a slap in the face. I mean, not everything has to be about me, but I kind of wanted more than "sorry" from a supposed best friend. I just wish someone understood that it's hard on me.

and to this friend who's preg - "yes I'm excited for you, but right now my loss is more important to me than your pregnancy, so I am putting myself FIRST until I feel ready to deal with you."
ETA - wording, spelling - and that actually felt really good to get out
Marriage: 10/02/2010

Dear DH:
I am mad as hell that you are leaving for the first 6 months of our marriage. I am mad as hell that it will be that long before we really get to try again to have a baby. Since AF has yet to show up and I'm scared to take Provera as we haven't exactly been TC/TA on the off chance some miracle happens. I hate that if we are lucky enough to get pregnant again, I won't be anywhere near my family and friends. I'm mad as hell that you would rather spend time with everyone else BUT me before you leave. Basicially, I'm just mad. And I don't know what to do or say about it. I can't tell you any of this because I don't want to fight.
Love,
Your Wife
Dear Coworkers (whom I have worked with for almost 2 years, many of whom are female)-
Thanks for not pointing out the fact that my bra has been CLEARLY visible through my cami all morning. I admit I was sleepy and bleary-eyed when I got dressed, but a "hey, maybe you should button your cardigan" would have been appreciated before I met with our CFO.
Yeah...

Dear DH: I'm truly happy that you finally found your birth mother, but I'm not emotionally ready to meet her. It's going to be stamped in my brain forever that the day you finally got to talk to her is the day I started bleeding and we found out that LO stopped growing. I will never be able to separate those two events. Ever.
Dear pregnant friend: Thank you so much for your support. Somehow you have found the exact balance between being there and giving space. I want to hear all about your pregnancy when you start talking to me about it again, but I'm scared I will always look at your LO and hurt b/c I'm trying to picture our LO at that age.
Dear employee -
When I asked you today to run a meeting for me because I had an urgent issue come up, I lied. I just didn't feel like going to the meeting and frankly, I'm in charge so that's how it works. Sorry.
PS - At least you're getting brownie points for it.

Oh jeez. Apparently she has no clue what a miscarriage entails if she thinks it's something you could be confused about having had or not had. I would have said something snarky like, "Hey you're right! Maybe I am still knocked up! Let me go buy some nursery furniture right now! So glad you're here to set me straight."

Dear body -
For the first time is almost 5 months, I woke up wanting to be pregnant again and not fearing the possibility of another loss. So, seriously, this lack of AF needs to stop and you need to get your $hit together. I have 2-3 months left of my forced TTA time, so you should have plenty of time to start acting right. If not, we are going to have some problems.
Sincerely,
Your Owner

Dear BFF who is currectly 15 weks pg-
Yes I think you are stupid for snorkeling in Belize while pg, but I think you are even more stupid for not calling your OB about the huge rash on your leg that appeared the morning after snorkeling. It's been over a week, the rash has gotten bigger and you still haven't called about that. And please do not complain to me about having to have more bloodwork done next week at your OB's office. I just had a fallopian tube removed, 3 liters of a stranger's blood pumped into my body, multiple IVs and will be having blood drawn for the next who knows how many weeks to make sure they didn't miss anything during surgery, you know since it's very difficult to see everything through 2 liters of blood pooling in my abdomin.

Is she stupid for snorkeling generally or stupid for snorkeling in Belize? Just curious as I was born and raised in that country!

Dear second cousin,
Get a suitable apartment, get a job and take care of your baby. Visiting it in foster care is not enough. That is your baby, not the government's. It's your responsibility, no-one else's. By that baby's first birthday, they will take your rights away and adopt him out. Smarten up!

I have no issue with where she was snorkeling, I just have an issue with the snorkeling...and then complaining to me about the rash. Don't freaking complain to me while I'm busy recovering from emergency surgery where I almost died.

PgAL/PAL Welcome
Dear Hater,
I will admit...I do get down sometimes when I think about certain things in my life. And for a while I was suicidial, I won't front. And then I think about my husband and how I couldn't leave him. And I think about my close friends and family, who would be devastated and I couldn't leave them.
But most importantly, I think about you, Hater. I think about how you would show up to my funeral and act like we were best friends and shiiit when you know that's a damn lie. And then I think about how you wouldn't return calls or texts but all of a sudden, you're sitting around my family acting like you and I go way back. And then I think about all the times I told you about my plans and you brushed them off like they weren't anything.
So Hater, sorry to burst your bubble but I'm staying alive. Not for religious reasons, not because of the love for my husband. No. I'm staying alive solely JUST TO PISS YOU OFF. And what's awesome about this, Hater...is that I'm going to be so successful, you'll be furious at the fact you let our relationship slip through your fingers.
Fcuk you,
foxxy.
Completely agree with ya!!!

My DH is military and left on a 4 month deployment a couple of months after our wedding too. The bright side was we BDed ALOT when he came home and I got pg pretty quick. It didn't stick though, but I was so happy he was home for all the crappy stuff!
He's been on 3 deployments in the past 2 years and both of us are so stressed right before he leaves that we end up being really snippy with each other...the booklet I got says it's normal apparently...lol

Dear Ute,
Isn't it about time you figure your shiit out? You are not 10 years old, you are 30. You know how this deal works. Release egg. Build lining. Shed. It's not rocket science. Don't make me come in there.

This. Totally. Love the way you put that!
And thanks for the input. I knew going in to this marriage it would be difficult. I just didn't realize I would have such a hard time dealing. It's good to know I'm not alone in feeling this way. )
I am a school social worker and work a lot with pregnant teens who think getting pregnant is not a big deal and often ask me why I dont have any kids... I just want to yell at them and slap them all!!
