I am going to explode! ** pregnancy mentioned**

VaBarnetVaBarnet member
in TTC After a Loss
So, my SIL is pregnant... She actually got pregnant after I had my first loss and announced to the family when I found i was pregnant again.
I was happy for her and for me but than I MC again... Now I feel awful because I am jealous! 
She just found out today the gender of the baby and posted on FB, so the first thing I saw this morning when I opened FB was the US picture... Now My MIL 
is calling me because she want to talk about it. 
I just want to find a hole in the ground and stay there.

    I'm so sorry. I can only imagine how hard that situation must be and I know if I was in that position I would feel the exact same way. I feel jealous and want to cry anytime I see a girl at work (who I hardly know) who is pregnant and due when I would have been. Take care of yourself and don't be afraid to limit contact with certain people if that is what you need. Hopefully your family will understand how difficult this is for you and will give you the time and space you need. ((hugs))

    I'm so sorry - that's rough. I would be jealous too! I would avoid the phone calls and talk when you feel up to it (not when your MIL does). (((Hugs)))

    I am sorry you had this trigger today *hug*

    If you don't want to get rid of your FB, just hide her. I know it's hard sometimes because some people just don't understand but you have to take care of YOU right now. 
    I am not sure how to say this without getting a "solicitation" warning so I guess I just say that I am not longer active on THIS site.

    I say don't answer that phone and hunker down. My SIL is currently KU and we're on an indefinate break from my in-laws because they don't understand why I may feel the way I do.

    Take care of yourself.
    We are also on in in-law break.

    OP - It's not worth the stress. Do what you have to do. Regarding FB, you can unfollow her.

    Sending you lots of hugs.  I'm sorry you're having to deal with this.  You have the right to feelings and if you're not ready to talk about her pregnancy then don't.  you have to take care of you first.

    While we're talking about taking care of you... Please do eat the brownies that @sarcaztic10 sent you :-)  She makes really good brownies... or at least I assume she does from the pictures I've seen :-)

    I am so sorry. It is so hard when there are family members and friends pregnant around you. You do what works for you, if that's avoiding them, that's what you need to do. MIL should understand and not be trying to talk to you about it.

    I am sorry your going threw this. If it makes you feel better, I feel the same way. Everyone I know seems to be pregnant now. All I see all over Facebook is baby stuff or if I go anywhere I see someone pregnant and have to fight the tears back. We are going home for Christmas and I am dreading even seeing family. Just one look from them and I am going to brake down. :(

    I am so sorry love, I am going through this exact same situation! I found out I was pregnant with "jelly bean" and she found out too but was farther along! She hurried up and announced on FB before I did but I don't announce early anyways so she just looked dumb.

    My MIL talks about it all the time and it makes me sad. I'm happy for her but I am also jealous!

    And BROWNIES? Send some my way! @sarcaztic10‌

    My SIL also told me not to get too excited because I could have a MC! Rudest thing I've ever heard because it happened two weeks later. Still really bitter about what she said to me and it's going to be hard for me to get over!

    I feel your pain and I'm going through a similar issue. My sister found out she was pregnant only a few days after me. I didn't tell all of my family that I was pregnant and mc so it drives me insane to be around my family lately because the biggest news is my sister being pregnant and everyone is so excited and like to mention how excited I should be since I'm going to be an aunt again. It's exhausting and I guess all we can do is take it a day at a time. Good luck to you and I hope things get easier

    Exactly, it seems like everybody is getting pregnant and it feels like that have a "worry free" pregnancy and that I am the "unlucky" one.

    I am from Brazil and all my family lives there. For months I planed a trip to visit my family. It was all planed and I had tickets for nov5th. Nov 1st I MC...  my parents were the only one who knew about it... 
    WelI, I thought the trip was going to be awful and that everybody was going to be asking me about babies but I was wrong; nobody said a word... 

    I hope your trip goes well and that you can find support on your family too... Hugs

    I'm so sorry.  My SIL is due 2 days after I was, so I know exactly how you feel.  My plan for Christmas (and maybe even going into the new year) is avoidance.  At Thanksgiving, we found out a cousin is pregnant.  I just can't deal right now.

    Any family that chooses to be offended by my absence can kiss my ass.  My only concern right now is my sanity and getting through this process.
