Four months on I find myself suddenly struggling, it is like the sadness has really just hit me and everyone I know has babies,trying or is pg. It is the constant topic.
I dont want talk to any of my old friends anymore and am feeling numb.Certainly dont want to coo over their babies either. I kind of just lurk around them in the shadows when we all meet up, rather than being the lively old soul I was.

I am lucky enough to have children already and they are wonderful.
But getting pg is not straightforward for me, lots of complications so it is not a question of getting over this in that way. I dare not do it all again.
Maybe I feel sad that it was probably my last chance.

I am just not me anymore.I am a miserable old sod!
Like everyone else,family life is so busy I dont have any time to wallow or ask for help.

Someone give me a secret bucket load of sympathy, please?

How are you feeling greenpearl?

Much better today thank you. Have enjoyed being with ds today and had fun. Must learn not to get so down about these things and get back up quicker.
Decided to get positive and do what I can to help my Parents on the practical side and helping always seems to make you feel better doesnt it.

Plummy when's your nuchal?

Glad you are feeling brighter I don't know about you but I've noticed that my mood is very much influenced by the weather and today was much brighter. It's nice when you spend time with your child and really appreciate that time rather than going through the motions. I try and do this every friday as I have thurs and fri off work but am too knackered on thurs to give him quality time.

My nuchal is on 18th July. A while to go yet. On holiday for a week soon though so that will pass some time.
