anyone having a hard time with the holidays?

maybe it's because I'm coming up on when loss #2 would have been due, but I'm surprised at how difficult the holidays are this year. I feel so irrelevant. The slew of photo cards coming in the mail are killing me.

anyone else having an especially rough time? what are you doing to make it through?

I'm a little sad knowing that I would have been 7 months by now, showing and all that. I think I am getting more sad about the fact that my due date is rapidly approaching. I was hoping to be pg by now so that it would be a bit easier when that day came.

A little just because we said we'd tell our families on Christmas.

Re: anyone having a hard time with the holidays?

I'm having a tough time with 2010 coming and not being PG. All through this year, at any relevant ocassion (mother's day, father's day, a friend's child's b-day party), we would say that this would be the last _________ without a baby. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem that way. Chat Icon

I'm trying to focus on the fun of holiday parties and new years, and how I can enjoy these events without being PG and without children. I can stay out late, drink, and not worry about responsibilities. It doesn't take away all of the pain, but it does help to focus on the parts of my life that I enjoy as an adult without children.

My due date would have been 2/1, so I know it is going to be tough as it approaches....

this is totally me. February is coming up fast and I really thought it would be easier if I were pg...but as on now it doesn't look that way.

At first I didn't want to send a photo card htis year b/c I was bitter. I wanted to send an u/s photo...I just keep telling myself next year will be the year.
2010 will be my year! Chat Icon

Ugh, these holidays can't be over quick enough for me. I cry at almost everything now. I was doing so well, but having the holidays here and not being pg is really hard and I am definitely struggling.

I am hoping 2010 can be a better year for myself and for all of us! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
