new and sad

[dd0207]

Hi Jocelyn, so nice to hear from you. I totally understand your need for seclusion so don't worry about not responding to me sooner. I'm sorry it has taken me a while to respond to you but I did not expect anyone else to write to me on this thread so wasn't checking it regulary.

I am so sorry you have been struggling lately. It just hurts so much doesn't it? You are probably at the coast now so I hope you and hubbie are having a nice time together and supporting and loving each other during this very emotional time. I also hope with all my heart the get-away brings a little bundle of joy.

I too have had a few friends give birth around my due date and it is extremely hard to deal with. Although I was very happy for them, my insides were screaming in pain and sadness. Like you, my depression was compounded by the fact that my son's due date was so close to the 2 year anniversary of my mum's death - hence the depressed mood. What a sh*t week that was....

Same here, I have not told anyone that we are TTC again. How nice would it be if we could share our pregnancy journey together! Come and join me over at "TTC after late loss" thread. The girls over there are amazing, supportive and very welcoming. You can chat about everything TTC and it is all between us.

I have not heard from Jo (the friends that had the stitch) in a while but I see she is over in the "pregnancy after loss" section and seems to be doing really well. It comforts me to see success stories like this and I know we will be ok when our time comes. BTW, what state do you live in?

I am sending you the biggest hug I can muster up and I really do hope you feel a little stronger after your trip away. Again, please join me over in the other thread so we can chat regularly. It is so important and so lovely to be close to other women who can truly understand our pain.

Take care of yourself and hope to hear from you soon - either here or on the other thread if you are comfortable joining.

Lots of love
Diana
