Late Term and Child Loss

Salt in the wound

The "headed to the hospital" announcements have started, followed with pictures of these precious babies later in the day.  These are the women that were due shortly after me.  Yesterday was the first one, I hadn't hidden her on FB yet because she is not very active and she wasn't due for a few more weeks.  Today was another one, and while I had hid her, there's all of her family, which we're very close to.  I don't want to get off FB, but am i supposed to hide 75% of my friends because of mutual friends to those that are pregnant?  Don't get me wrong, I am so happy for these girls and their husbands, but it makes me incredibly sad and jealous that I didn't get to have those posts.  It's been harder to see these posts than it was to get through my due date. 

To make it worse, I noticed today that I was leaking colostrum.  It's been 5 months, where the heck is this coming from?

Sad day :(

Re: Salt in the wound

  • Big hugs to you. That is so so hard. I really dislike Facebook for that very reason. It is very much OK to be happy or not for someone else and be very sad for yourself. Sometimes it feels like a slap in the face, doesn't it? Thinking of you.

  • I'm sorry you're struggling. I understand how you feel. FB is pure evil. I have tried avoiding it all together and I feel better. I hate that slap in the face! Feel better, hun.

  • I'm so sorry. I think every day I have seen a new pregnancy announcement on FB and it's driving me crazy. I can name 25 of my friends without even really thinking. Big hugs to you as you deal with everyone's posts
  • FB is the devil, I swear.  Just when you think you are having an ok moment...NOPE!  All those people get blocked from my news feed, I just can't stand to see it every second, even if I am happy for them.

    I stay away from Facebook now. Only logged in to share the Every 21 Minutes video and saw a bunch of posts from parents asking to vote for their babies on Gerber, so I quickly logged off.

    I got rid of Facebook about 2 years ago when I finally got started my career as a counselor and I have never missed it! I realized that it honestly made me a much more negative person and I didn't like those feelings. Just something to consider as it is not for everyone. :)
