    2. Status? WTO 
    3. R/R: ******TW*******LO mentioned***
    Been absent alot from the boards lately due to planning my DD's 2nd birthday party. Its a very emotional time of year for me also due to the fact that she was born super early (25 weeks) and we both almost died. Her birthday day is tomorrow Oct. 3 and party is on Saturday Oct. 5. Been having lots of anxiety that has been making me sick. On the upside according to my BBT and OPKs I am ovulating tomorrow, so yay to that! 
    4.GTKY: What did you want to be when you grew up? Lots of things! But mostly a famous artist (painter) like Van Gogh or Monet. Also wanted to be an animator for Disney. At one point, a police officer😉

    3. R/R: This week has been really good. I am feeling great! I have jogged twice, but fell off the healthy food train a couple of times. 😂 *TW Trigger Warning* I think everyone around me is pregnant!!! I had a meeting with a parent yesterday. I asked the simple question, “How are you?” “Oh I am PREGNANT!!!” I know she was just excited but it just caught me off guard. Then all day I thought how close I would have been to having my baby. I just keep thinking will I ever move passed this?!!!? I am ready to move passed this. 
    4.GTKY: What did you want to be when you grew up?  I really wanted to be a counselor, but I just always thought how can I deal with everyones’ problems plus my own?!!!? I am still not sure what I want to be when I grow up!

    @Mamaof2beautifulgirls Thank you for the birthday wishes!
    Totally know how you feel about when everyone around you is or seems pregnant. Been feeling that way too and it makes my anxiety go up even more. 

    edited to fix comment in spoiler
    Its like DD knew something was going 
    on today and was up during the night. I hold her so tight sometimes and thank God everyday she is alive. Such a tough time, but I know we will have a wonderful day together. We always have such good times together. Never thought I would get to watch her grow up after all that happened to her.

    3. R/R: **TW** My sister delivered my nephew the day I miscarried. Two and half weeks ago. She surprised me at work with him a few days ago. He's absolutely beautiful, but he makes me so sad. I know it's not him, or my sister, it's just... hard.**TW OVER**
    4.GTKY: What did you want to be when you grew up? I wanted to be a veterinarian, or a farmer, or a teacher. I still have no idea what I want to be when I grow up. I manage a country club. I don't believe I'll be here forever.

    @modoodles I am sorry about the surprise. I am sure your sister thought it would make you happy and probably in some way you were happy to see them. Life after a miscarriage is really a roller coaster of emotions because you feel happy for people, but so sad for yourself. Hugs

    3. R/R: this is a tough month for me. I should have been due Oct 20th. All I can think about is all the things I should have been doing. And I definitely (stupidly) thought I’d totally be pregnant by now. Trying to keep my head up and keep moving forward. 
    4.GTKY: What did you want to be when you grew up? A lot of things! An astronaut, a motorcycle cop, and an Olympic figure skater were my top 3 lol

    3. R/R: TW* When I found out I was pregnant this spring a good friend of mine plus a cousin both found out around the same time. My cousin had her baby this past weekend and my friend is due in a couple weeks. I’m happy for both of them but it’s hard to be getting close to my original due date. And last month’s CP was just a cruel blow. 
    4.GTKY: What did you want to be when you grew up? When I was 5 I told everyone I wanted to be a missionary ballerina, whatever that is. 😂 Then I wanted to be a photographer and a writer for National Geographic. 

    @manillabar hugs to you, we’re struggling with similarly approaching due dates. Just tough. Hope you have some good news soon. 

    @modoodles that would be a bittersweet surprise. Just feel what you feel and don’t beat yourself up about it. You’re an awesome aunt already, I’m sure, and your present sadness doesn’t take anything away from your loving aunt-ness.

    @manillabar I am so sorry for the up coming due date. Remember to be kind to yourself. I like your attitude of keeping your head up. 

    @rachelredhead I had a CP in August and it is a horrible feeling. So sorry you find yourself here.

    @manillabar Sorry about your upcoming due date. I have and upcoming anniversary next month of the first CP I had. I really wish we all didn't have to go through this. Life sure can be tough. At least we have people in our lives who can be there for us to build us back up again when we're feeling low. Am thankful for that.

    @rachelredhead So sorry for all you're going through. Really do hope things get better for you soon. ***Hugs*** Honestly want to hug everyone here! If I knew it would help❤

    @modoodles What a tough surprise. Keeping it together is half the battle when things like that happen. I keep suspecting a surprise like that in my near future and have been keeping my guard up.

    Everyone thats due date would be soon, I'm so sorry. Its very hard, I was doing good, and when my date hit last year it was rough and I wasn't expecting it. It does get better the next year. The first year after a loss with all the firsts is very hard, because you've planned or foreseen you're whole life especially all the big firsts. 

    Status? Tww, not very hopeful this cycle
    3. R/R: Rave, we are looking into adoption, we have an intro session this week and I'm nervous but it feels right.

    4.GTKY: What did you want to be when you grew up? Depended on the day dancer, teacher. Ended up as accountant

    @ottergirl81 Big celebrations are hard especially after a loss. I hope the party went well. 

    @Mamaof2beautifulgirls I feel the same way about being past it. Some days it seems to hurt more than others.

    @modoodles My sil is due in Feb and it'll be the first baby in the immediate family since the loss. I am already sad about it not being me.
