    Why

    Everyone around me seems to be pregnant or have fallen pregnant!! I just feel down as I would of been one as well and I know I will again but just as I thought I had dealt with the mc and all someone else we know tells us they are pregnant!!

    ohhh, the pregnancy convention. One is held in the months after any miscarriage.

    It's not really fair, is it?



    It's tough, especially those smug folk who have no idea how awful it is to have something go wrong (I'm not suggesting that anyone who hasn't had a loss isn't understanding, but some people are just useless) If it's people close to you, think about being upfront about your needs and what affects you. It made a big difference to me when I did that.

    Good luck to you, my love.

    me too

    I often feel the same... at least four friends announced their pregnancies, one of them the same week I lost mine (so we would have been due the same week). I still feel a 'pang' in my stomach whenever i see a preggie belly. I think it will be there until I have another good going pregnancy myself. So sorry you're having a hard time this week,

    oh love, I know how you feel... same thing is happening in my circle of friends! Had another announcement a few weeks ago... i felt physically sick when i heard her say it.... then spent the rest of the week feeling guilty for not being happy for her!

    Ahh.... its not fun!

    Praying that all of our BFP's aren't too far away! xx

    I am so with you!

    My sister-in-law and one of my best friends are due on what what would have been my exact due date.

    My sister is also 13 weeks now.

    It really feels like I am in the depths of torture sometimes. We have an Anzac day bbq with my DH's family - i have no idea how I am going to get through it!

    When dealing with the loss of my first pregnancy one of my "friends" gave birth to a baby girl that she did not want (it was to late to abort) and I think that raising her baby helped me cope with the loss of my own although I would often cry myself to sleep wondering why a druggie was able to have a healthy baby that was not even loved when I done everything I could to make sure my baby would be healthy and would be/is very loved.
    Now with this loss I find out one of my other friends have just gotten rid of twins, I would have adored to have

    I had this go thru my head so many times, especially when I found out that a friend got secretly pregnant to her partner because she wanted another even though they had decided to wait until they bought a house
