I’ve been avoiding Facebook lately, happy to work on my photography business or read a book. I just finished The Fiery Cross, book number 5 of the Outlander series. Straight onto book number 6..
anyway, I decided to check out FB today and the first dozen posts were happy pregnant ladies or babies. I can’t. It seriously crushes me. Instagram is the same. I quickly Xed out of Facebook. Adam’s good friend and his wife are expecting baby number 2, due in August. I can’t escape everyone’s joy and due dates and baby news. I almost started to cry when he told me. I can’t explain how awful it feels to be upset at such happy news but also happy for them at the same time, but mostly in your own sorrow. I’m sure a lot of you understand, have been there at some point.
Tomorrow I have my follow up with Dr. Plante, and then once Adam’s blood tests come back we will be submitting to insurance to start our next cycle.
I understand.. all the best for your next cycle though!

I totally get it. Don’t beat yourself up for feeling like that. I was there. And, strangely enough, sometimes still am. Do what you need to to keep your feelings safe. (And I’ll get it if that means a break from me at some point too).
I hope your FU goes well today and that everything is smooth sailing for your next start! xoxo

Thank you, I appreciate your comments! For some reason the feelings aren’t like that for other IVF moms. I’m just excited for you/other IVF moms. I know that’s weird… lol 🙂 xoxo

Ugh FB amirite! What’s worse than seeing PG posts is seeing those “I don’t know whose baby this is but you just got fooled because I’m an insensitive ass” posts.
