Nasty VENT that's eating me alive

**Bumperstump Cummerbund** · January 5th, 2011, 11:27 AM

I'm so SICK of seeing preg/birth announcements and pictures of baby bumps. I just don't care, I don't wanna see them. I've gotta hide from BB and FB because they're fricken everywhere. Doesn't anyone remember that I'm supposed to be having my baby soon? Why hasn't everyone elses world stopped the way mine has?

Honest to God, if one more person gives me some inane comment trying to get me to feel better, I'm gonna lose it. Just accept that I'm upset, give me space to deal with it. I'm tired of feeling embarrassed and swallowing down my grief because it might offend or embarrass someone. My baby was a person too, just as deserving as consideration.

I'm so angry that I don't even know if it was a boy or a girl. I can't even give it a name. In the eyes of the world, I have nothing. And I have less every day.

babe, you are allowed to feel angry or upset and I can totally understand your feelings about seeing pregnant bellies, I felt exactly the same.

I wish I could do some magic trick or wave a magic wand to give you what you want

Don't be afraid to offend people with how you feel. It's valid and it's real. TBH if anyone got offended about you not wanting to see preg belly pics etc, I'd be shocked

I hate all the updates on facebook too, vent away,

You have every right to grieve anyway you need too, hope you have support from Hubby

I understand your pain - a much younger friend just smsd a pic of her engagement ring...I am nearly 35 and have never had a serious relationship, so hun, I totally get your anger, totally.

Much more fun...bit smelly must admit but fun

i reckon that grieving is important. no need to try to make you feel better, you gotta cry for your baby; it's only right and i honestly hope that ppl are giving you the space to do that...although my experience has been quite contrary: i think grief freaks alot of people out...but meh, their tough sucks. this is your baby...

Massive

There are plenty that know how you feel and you're completely valid for feeling this way. I'm so sorry Keike.

Oh honey...

I'm so, so sorry that you're going through this

nothing will make you feel better babe and here's a big up yours to anyone who thinks so. Grieve as you like. If other people are uncomfortable about it it's their problem.

I hide the FB belly posts myself. There's a limit to what I can deal with. Accept your limits without apology to anyone. It's surprisingly freeing.
