Having a moment

Today it snowed a couple inches, so after being stuck at home all day I went out to shovel.  Well it must have been therapeutic because I did three driveways and a long stretch of sidewalk.  

The moment... Not only did I realize that I should be shoveling, I should  be laying down since I would be 24 weeks, but then I came in to find out that my husband probably wont be home from work until close to 11pm (super busy with a project). So I can't even be with him, and have him help me through it.  He doesnt even have time to talk on the phone about it!

    I'm sorry, I have those moments. My husband and I started talking the other day and we were talking about if I was going to go back to work. I got upset, saying "This is not how it was supposed to be! I was supposed to stay at home with our four babies, not talking about whether I will be going back to work or not." I wish we didn't have to be going through this, thinking these things.

    Ditto this exactly! I just told my husband in bed last night that one of the reasons I fear going back to work is because it is like admitting defeat. Its one more thing that makes it completely real that things have changed.

    I have those moments all the time, they are so hard. I do feel Hunter with me a lot but its not what it should have been.

    I was so nervous to go back to work after 8 weeks. I was supposed to be home for 6 months. For me the second week back was the hardest, I think because it made it all so real. I was a mess, I came home and fell apart. It's so hard going on and accepting reality.

    im sorry you had one of those moments today.
