FFFC - shall we give it a go?

[PepperPottsJ]

I haven't told MH, I don't know how to tell MH, and I'm debating how long I can go ...

I look ridiculous at work. I didnt dry my hair, am wearing leggings, and have a blanket/shawl wrapped around me. I'm leaving early too because tired and my boss isn't here.

I get way too invested in the layout of my 2yr old's wooden train tracks.

PepperPottsJ & @xamountofwords hugs to you both ❤️

I'm annoyed that everyone keeps giving me bottles of wine for Christmas/my birthday. They don't know I'm pregnant, and I love that they're being generous...but I'm annoyed that those bottles will be burning a hole in my house for the next 8ish months haha.

We don't plan on telling MHs side of the family until well into the second trimester... we joked about not telling at all and just sending a birth announcement card LOL - we would álmost get away with that too since we hardly ever see them, maybe 2-3 times a year. But it's my MIL bday a week before my due date and it'll be kind of really obvious by then ;-)

With our first pg we told MIL early to cheer her up after a hard period, and she blabbed it to half of the family without asking. It was really uncool recieving congratulation notes from random family members, esp after we found out about our MMC and the lenghty ordeal that followed... I let her do the untelling, too, and MH&I swore that next time we'd simply not tell until much much later and we stand by that decision heh.

PepperPottsJ, @xamountofwords, **hugs**

I poas one evening and got a really bad squinter, so had decided to not tell until I got a clearer line some days later, since I was worried about another CP and really didn't wanted to get his hopes up tc.. But he knows me too well and made me spill the beans...

We are both struggling with PgAL and PAIF brain really quite badly, but I'm glad I have his support and he mine. I know it's hard to see our loves go through the worry, anxiety and heartache.. but it's hard on you to having to deal with things yourself - so wouldn't it be nicer to have him on your side maybe? *hugs*

[muscari]

Also, we haven't told many people at all yet - just my parents and my sister, and a handful of friends who knew we were cycling. I really dislike friends asking me how I'm feeling and how excited I am. Even tho they know of our hx and all, they just don't seem to get PgAL/PAIF and I just don't feel like explaining either. So I just wish people wouldn't ask at all - and it makes me not want to announce to others till like 60 weeks LOL.

Or maybe this isn't a FFFC but just a rant??

All Welcome. Status of Uterus does not matter.

I'm realizing PgAL brain does not go away just because you've had a baby. I want to not tell anyone...possibly ever. And yet, we didn't tell people the first time and lost it, told some people the second time and he's here and healthy...so I feel like we should tell people in the same way we did the last time. Oh and also, I made H go out to dinner the night we found out because we did for our son. I may be a bit superstitious, apparently.

I know how you all feel. My parents and sister were so not the support system I needed when we found out things were wrong and then until the baby died. They made it entirely about them and when I confronted them about it my sister told me it was my own fault they didn't support me how I needed them. So yeah. So we aren't telling them until well into the second trimester. We haven't told anyone anything and won't until the 8wk u/s comes back normal. PGAL is awful. I can't wait until the u/s to let us know if this one is viable (for now).

My fffc- I went to bed around midnight last night and didn't get out of bed til 11:30 this morning bc DH made me breakfast. It's now 12:41 and I'm back in bed. So fucking tired. Also I was having an amazing dream with Andrew Garfield (I think? The newer Spider-Man guy dating Emma stone?) so I'd like to go back to that. I never found him super hot before but this dream is changing my mind lol

[muscari]

*hugs* addymac I'm so sorry you totally lacked the support from your parents and sister while you needed them so much.

[Deleted]

addymac, I'm sorry your family wasn't supportive. It's hard enough to deal with without people making it all about them.

And +1 to the exhaustion. I'm jealous of the sleep you got though! I've been falling asleep fine, but wake up every night at 2 to pee and can't go back to sleep for hours. I'm in some sort of zombie state. And I'm used to drinking a lot more than 1 cup of coffee a day too, so that's not helping the situation.

[muscari]

+2 on the exhaustion. I feel sorry for MH who hardly gets to spent time with me atm. I leave to go to work early in the morning, come home, have dinner, and zonk out on the couch till it's time for bed. Which has been earlier and earlier lately LOL.

Haha I know exactly what you mean! He's not really my type but there's something about him.
