We have one child who we adore deeply. We have been through ivf a couple of times and lost a baby from this. It was the worst time of my life. After being triggered massively by alot of pregnancy announcements, seeing baby’s around etc I’ve been through therapy to come to terms with the loss and possibly being one and done.
I am so happy that I am not spiralling as much as I did when I was in the thick of grief. But in my partial acceptance of our future I have completely lost interest in talking/ hearing about pregnancy, babys, announcements, baby showers etc. Before I had DC I was so gushy over it and cared. I feel like I’ve moved on from the excitement of it because it’s ended for me now. Has anyone experienced this?
I see another one of my friends is pregnant and I feel happy for them but it ends there. I find it boring. Is that bad? I feel like literally every one of my friends are in this earth mother baby stage of their life and it bores me silly. I feel like I avoid people because of it. I know I’m not the only mum that finds it all so dull. But I feel lost in mum land and no one wants to do anything else. Oops I wrote an essay.. can you tell my therapist is on holiday haha
