I had a work event most of the day today and just got back home. DH took DD to the ILs for the night, so I have the house to myself for the first time in forever. I'm celebrating by watching "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead" and eating Nerds.
DH can't understand why I don't want to hear about the pregnancy of our friend who is having her baby right when I would have been due if my first pregnancy hadn't ended in a loss. I'm so glad she's doing well but hearing things like her husband told DH that they're at the point where he can feel the baby even when she's not kicking just makes me sad. And DH said, "these are our friends. I would have thought you'd be happy for them."
I totally understand this, with our first pregnancy that ended in loss I was due in August, same as my old college roommate. I had already lost our sweet baby when she told me she was pregnant, it was one of the hardest things to hear. She doesn't know about our loss and I didn't really feel like I could explain it to her during such a happy time for her. I expressed our happiness for her but I did keep my distance her entire pregnancy. August was a very difficult month for me and having her have her baby was just another painful reminder of what I was missing. I pray your husband can understand the pain you are coming from.
