My mate has just delivered a perfect, healthy baby girl, almost exactly 6 months before my miscarried baby would have been due. I don't want her baby, I want my own lost baby. And I am totally happy for her--and yet, so sad, jealous and upset too. Have just binged on chocolate ice-cream (thought I had conquered my compulsive eating habit) and feel thoroughly f* off! I know people in RL would say they understand, and it's normal, and it's early days, but...I hate feeling this way...
I'm not completely isolated with these feelings as I do have a therapist to talk to. But I can sense that DH (who is totally busy with a very involving course) just hasn't the emotional capacity right now and my friends have their own troubles.
