I may just break down

[vh2014]

UUUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHHH! <- screaming for you. You are totally within your rights to break down for a bit. Don't worry, we'll all pick you back up, dust you off, and hold you up until you get back on your feet again. That sucks.

Then cry! Oh I am so sorry... and dangit it is ok to be sad/mad/etc for a moment. I wish you peace and happiness and sometimes, for me anyway, I have to cry/yell, for a moment. Then I'm slowly restored to a level of sanity I can deal with ...

It doesn't matter how happy you are for someone...it still feels bad. Let it out!!!

[nikolie93]

Oh hon, I am so sorry

My colleague just announced that she and her husband are expecting again.  Her son just turned one.  She is due in August.  I'm in a department of 4 and her office is right across the hall from mine (maybe 10 feet max).  She's an awesome mom and I am so happy for her but I'm so making this about me right now and I just want to cry right now.

ETA: I'm sorry, I got in the wrong board!  We were just in GKU and talking about vents on the main board.  My apologies for the misplaced snark on your board and your thread!

AAAAAAARRRRRRGH!!! I'm so sorry... I know it feels like a punch in the gut when someone else announces their pregnant... never mind a fertile myrtle who gets pregnant at the drop of a hat. No need to be happy for her right now... you're allowed to make it all about you!!

[bearfootz]

I can give you boob hugs over here too, right? You can be happy for her and sad for yourself all at the same time, we've all been there.

I am so sorry. So many hugs to you. It sucks. I just found out the exact same thing yesterday and posted about it on CAL. Some of the advice included smiling at work but crying at home, leaving when it is to much to take, sharing your experience with her so she can be more sensitive, and wine. Here is the link if you want to look at all of it. I used the wine advice yesterday. First time that day I didn't feel like crying.

Oh that is hard. I am so sorry! *HUGS*

[Deleted]

oh geez. my heart goes out to you. This has been one of the hardest struggles for me as well. Let yourself cry and be sad, it's totally understandable. sending hugs

[URMySunshine77]

I'm sorry, hon. That's so difficult.

[KirstenAlecia]

Not fair......

[wannabmama]

Ugh. I'm sorry. I hope you get some extra good yummy chocolate tonight!

[agpjt413]

Im so sorry lady... @clgsquared

[WVaRN]

It's OK to feel sad. I know everyone says that another persons fertility does not affect our own fertility, but I understand getting sad when it seems like it is happening to everyone but you.

[EmsMama15]

I'm so sorry!

[meredithcarole]

I am so sorry. ((Hugs))

[lucylulu]

Ugh, I totally understand that! Its a shitty emotion and doesn't feel good but is Totally Normal! Big Hugs! 

[nikolie93]

Hope you're feeling a bit better @clgsquared *hug*

[happyktmom]

You are allowed to make this about you!  I know exactly how you feel.  Every one around me is having babies and posting their fabulous pinterest inspired chalkboards and kids with 'only child expired' shirts.  It just sucks. 

I know you want to be happy for her and probably show her you are, but she's got other people for that.  I don't know if she knows or understands what's happening in your world right now, but if she did - she would understand.

Just hoping today was a better day. ((Hugs)))
