Feeling like a bitch

Sometimes I get so frustrated! I think I am going to leave facebook...for good! Every time I get on there I am left feeling depressed. I swear all I see is pregnant pictures, baby updates and smart ass remarks how peoples kids are "driving them nuts." Better yet people complaining about pregnancy nausea or whatever...seriously? You think that is a difficult pregnancy because you are having morning sickness? How about trying for months to get pregnant, having ovaries so large I was on bedrest, a subchorionic bleed for weeks then losing my daughter at 24 weeks. Nausea? I wish that was the worst of my worries when I was pregnant.

Maybe I am jealous...we have been trying for over a year to get pregnant and we are not. I sit back and watch all of my friends, family and coworkers have babies...living babies. I go to showers, birthday parties and whatever else I get invited to...yet here we are with empty arms? How can I not be cynical? I am to the point I don't give a shit if I offend people or say something rude. People say insensitive, rude comments to me ALL OF THE TIME.

Honestly, I am over this whole deal. At this point, I don't give a fuck if I get pregnant or not. I guess I am setting myself up for failure because it's all I have come to know this year. I am failing at something I have absolutely not control over. Yet I have to watch the world have baby after baby...

So...call me a bitch. I don't care. Call me jealous...I am. I am angry and annoyed. WTF!

    You are far from a bitch Kate. You have every right to feel the way you feel. I remember feeling the same way after my failed FET. If you need to leave FB I say go for it. It's evil and you do not need to see anything that will upset you. I know, that shit upsets me too and I still want to leave FB especially when my SIL posts about her pregnancy blah. I had terrible morning sickness with the boys and would do it 100x over again if they could be here with me.

    Always here for you!
    *hugs*

    I hear you! I got very upset at friend today who was complaining about breastfeeding for 8 weeks. Telling me I shouldn't do it. Really? I'd give anything to have a baby at my breast. People suck! Will you still text me your status updates when you leave fb?

    I agree w/ you Kate. Social networking after you lose a baby is beyond unimaginable honestly! I deleted my FB and myspace a few months after Ella died..I was just done w/ it. And it was the BEST thing I ever did! I recommend it. I am back on FB now under an alias talking to only a few ppl ;)

    I do not go for any baby showers. Actually I do not go near any baby. I held my dying child in my arms, against my chest for three whole days - his cry - the one single cry I heard haunts me. I cannot hear any baby cry - it just acts like an arrow piercing my heart. I must be a really selfish person to not want to hold any babies - but that is how I am.

    Honestly, I felt and still sometimes feel the same way. I have had to "hide" many people on FB because of the complaints I would see about their kids or talk would talk about how they are pregnant and are praying so hard for a boy/girl...rather than being freaking happy to have a living child. It sucks. When it isn't happening for you, it sure does feel like the entire rest of the world is pregnant or with babies. All I can offer you is hugs and tell you I understand.

My Beta

So...my level today was 108!!! The nurse said that was a perfect, healthy number...not too high, not too low. Chances are good we have one little charm in there. Which is PERFECT. We won't know for sure until our u/s...but I have been thinking it's one...and a boy. I feel really connected to a little boy, and awhile ago, Zoe came to me in a dream and said we were going to get pregnant with one baby, a little boy, and things were going to be fine. :-) Sweet little baby of mine...comforting her momma even in spirit. It's strange to be pregnant right now...It doesn't feel real quite yet. It does, but it doesn't. I feel really secure about this pregnancy...almost at peace. I feel deep in my heart we are going to bring home a living baby. It's will be strange to be a mother of 2, one in spirit and one here on Earth. I love Zoelle so deeply, and miss her with each breath I take. I wish she was here to share in the joy of this new life. At the same time, the new life

2nd Beta!

Well, my 2nd beta on Wednesday was 308! Super excited! Who knows...there might just be two lucky charms in there. Everyone seems to think we are having twins...even my very fabulous IVF nurse. Only time will tell. One...two...whatever happens, I am just so excited to be pregnant. We have our first u/s on March 22nd where we will see how many we have and hear the little heart beat/s. Yay!! As of right now I have been feeling wonderful! I am having a bit of nausea here and there, but not too bad. I didn't get sick one time when I was pregnant with Zoe, so we will see. For now, just the normal early pregnancy symptoms and I LOVE IT! I can hardly wait to meet this little bean in 35-36 weeks from now! :-) So the count down begins...17 more days until our first u/s. Unlike my pregnancy test...I can't cheat and head to the office early for this one. What is a girl to do...ha!

Dear Uterus, In less then two weeks our second pregnancy begins. Please keep our little embryo's safe and nestled tightly in your womb. I promise to provide you with proper nutrients, vitamins and water. Please stay relaxed and happy! A happy uterus makes for a happy mother. :-) I would greatly appreciate you behaving for at least 37 weeks. Dear uterus, I would like you to recite this mantra over and over..."I am like velcro! I am like velcro!" We can do this! Please be gentle with our little peanuts...this means the world to us. Thanks Uterus! Love, Your body!
