Just called in sick to another baby shower
My D&C was last Thursday. That Saturday was my best friend's shower. I just couldn't do it...she totally understood. I had another one today for DH's cousin. I was all set on going but dreading it. I told DH this morning that it was the last place on earth that I wanted to be right now. So he told me to call and say I had the stomach bug. I just don't think that I'm emotionally ready to sit through a baby shower!  But I still feel bad....

Re: Just called in sick to another baby shower
I know exactly how you feel. The day after my D&C was my cousins wifes baby shower and like an idiot i went. I left after lunch. I couldnt deal w/ gifts.
It was WAYYYYY harder than i thought.
I went to my BFFs about a month after D&C. That one was easier bc i love her and was happy for her. Again, left before gifts.
Ive since said no to 2 other showers. I just am not ready

totally understandable! You are human, after all.
Showers are annoying anyway.

Re: Just called in sick to another baby shower
It is completely understandable
I am sorry you even had to deal with having to make that decision. There were many baby showers I had attended where I spent so much of it in the bathroom crying wishing I just never would have gone.
I hope you are feeling better

Re: Just called in sick to another baby shower
You are going through a lot-understandable. You need to be selfish and take care of yourself
