One of those days

Oops, posted this on the wrong page earlier. Having one of those days where an old wound was opened and I'm an emotional mess. I love social media but sometimes it's overwhelming when friends are announcing they are expecting, especially when they are due when we were supposed to be due. Don't get me wrong I am very happy for them! Anyone have the same problem? By the way, I haven't posted on here in awhile but I love this page and the support everyone offers.

    While I was waiting to see if I would miscarry naturally or need a d&e, my cousin announced on facebook that she was pregnant and due a couple weeks before my EDD.  Turned out to be an April Fool's joke.  :-w

    RE says the low egg count is likely causing my recurrent pregnancy loss. Less eggs results in more aneuploidy.

    I am currently purposefully avoiding social media because I am almost to what would have been my 12 week mark of my most recent loss - because that's when some one is most likely to come out of the woodwork and announce on facebook or instagram.

    For each of my losses I have a friend who was due within the same week as I was. My first loss due date is coming up in September (the second will be in February)- it is a difficult balance to be happy for a friend while grieving a loss. I totally understand. *hugs*

    You are not alone!
    My niece is due a week before I was supposed to be due.
    That hurts

    My coworker is due 5 days after I was supposed to be... My other coworker and friend just told me yesterday that she is 10w and due in March. I'm a teacher so going back to work in a couple weeks and seeing them everyday is going to suck.

    I totally understand... Just a few days ago I found out through FB that one of my cousins is due around the same time I was supposed to be due. Also, one of my neighbors who I run into on a regular basis is due a couple of weeks before I was supposed to be due. She announced it the week I found out I miscarried. It's hard...

    The same day we found out I had a mmc my sister in law had an ultrasound to find out their baby's gender and had posted about it on facebook, she was kind enough to delete it after hearing our news.

    It's still difficult at family gatherings when the family is talking and dreaming about her baby, I can't help but think "that should be us too" ... I hate that feeling

    I've avoided family gatherings on my husbands side since my mc in April, because only his immediate family knows, not extended. I don't want to hear questions of if we're trying or when we are going to have a baby. My immediate and extended know what happened, so they don't ask.
