DH and I are going to his hometown (2 hours away from where we live) to visit his family and see a few of his friends. One of these friends is pregnant and announced days before we went for our 12 week scan in July. At the time I was thrilled and couldn't wait to surprise them with a scan picture a few days later. When we went to the scan we were told there was no baby and I had had a MMC, with the foetus not even reaching 8 weeks. It was a huge shock but I have dealt fairly well with it, keeping the hope that we will fall pregnant again, although it is getting harder as each month passes. I think before now (I got my period 3 days ago) I had kept the faith that by the time I saw her I would be pregnant again and therefore be able to cope with seeing her, and her blooming belly, but now that I am not I am struggling with the whole idea of seeing her and keep crying at the thought.
SO, I am in need of positive affirmations, self reasoning, anything that will stop me crying when I see her for the first time on Saturday and stop me stressing about seeing her for the next 5 days. I think I will be ok after the initial 5 minutes, I just need to get myself there and with a happy face!
