The world is against me today!

TimesInfinity9 · June 2013

First, I got a call from the health nurse to schedule me into Baby School (as I call it...where they teach you how to get through labor, how to care for your baby etc). Since this is done through a different place then my doctor's office they weren't aware of my loss. The lady was so apologetic after I told her I wouldn't be needing them right now and I felt bad that she felt bad. Then later in the afternoon I had a package delivered. Of course it wasn't the memorial necklace I ordered for myself, instead it was a diaper bag I ordered online a month ago. Ugh, what a day!

Ugh. I honestly felt the same way today! I had minor surgery Wednesday and I could have taken the rest of the week to recover, but I decided to go into work today to catch up. Big mistake. I made the mistake of asking my 35-week pregnant co-worker how she has been feeling... I was not prepared for her answer. I try to do the right thing and be supportive, but it just hurts so, so badly to hear her excitement. A little while later, one of my other co-workers visited the office with her baby after being out on maternity leave for 2 months. Everyone went crazy over her little boy and I had nowhere to hide. It's a never ending battle at work with co-workers and their babies. And I am always left wondering, "Out of the 4 of us expecting, why was I the one who had to lose my baby?" And just to top it all off, I ran into someone who I haven't really seen since my return to work, and she looked at me and asked how I'm doing. Then she proceeded to look me up and down SEVERAL times with a pity look. I wanted to be like, "Helloooo??! Yes, I am NOT pregnant anymore. Could you make me ANY MORE self conscious about it??" Ugh!

Lots of hugs and love to you ladies today. I haven't gotten any mail in a few weeks...should end soon. Totally sucks...we got a package from relatives with her baby towels the day we found out she died. not fun.

It really does pour all at once! I hope we all have a better week. And I pray that we will get stronger, and every day we will be able to better handle baby reminders. Hugs!

***SIGGY WARNING***

The Monday after Devon was born sleeping, baby bottles that I'd ordered from Amazon arrived. I sent them back without even looking in the box. That same day, my college roommate's baby gift had arrived. She felt SO bad; she'd sent it before our loss. The gifts she sent became a part of Devon's memory box though, so it worked out. I remember getting stupid mailers and formula checks for weeks and weeks after, even though I opted out of all of that a few days after losing Devon. It sucked.

I'm so sorry you had a rough day. I hope your weekend's gone better. *hugs*
