Adding to the pain

My brothers girlfriend had her baby this morning. A little girl named Lilly.

  1. Nothing I will say will ease the pain or change how you're feeling.

    My last two miscarriages, I've had people due the time I was due, that made it hard, it's hard to grieve for what you've lost and move on when you're faced with a reminder all the time.

    Congratulate them (which I have no doubt that you've done) and then take some space.....I am sure they will understand.

  3. I've been reading and catching up with you this morning and I am just so sad. I was thrilled when I read about your little baby a few weeks ago!

    There's surely nothing I can say to ease your pain- time is the only thing that will help... a little. Or getting pregnant again, and I hope that happens soon.

    You are so brave!

  5. Normally I don't post anonymously, but...

    I lost a baby in college, and one of my best friends had gotten his girlfriend pregnant at the exact same time I was. They were bad situations for both of us, but I had wanted kids as long as I could remember, and no matter how terrified I was, I still wanted the baby. His girlfriend did not lose hers... and they even named her the same name I gave mine, Rachael. It was really, really difficult to see that baby at first, but babies have a way of winning you over.

    I wish you nothing but peace, and the best of luck if you decide to continue the IVF journey.

  6. Oh Bec, I'm sorry. I agree with The Unproductive One, congratulate them from afar and take some space for yourself. I wish there was something I could do to help. Hugs.

  8. Ouch.

    It's always the way isn't it. Either someone announces they are expecting or they have their baby just when you have lost yours.

    So unfair.

    Love & hugs to you honey xoxo
