It’s my Birthday……What a “gift” to get

I woke up this morning to find that yet again my quest to become a mommy didn’t work. I woke up to have an unwanted visitor… TOM is here to ruin my birthday.

I don’t want to deal with this today of all days. Mike and I thought that this time our trying worked. I was having all kinds of unexplained symptoms of being pregnant, but I guess it didn’t work. To have this happen and then to find out in the last month that there are two people at work who  are expecting, one of which isn’t really happy that she is, well this is just a cruel joke to play on me. I feel at my lowest that I have ever been at today.

I should be happy and full of life today, for pete’s sake it’s my birthday, but I don’t even feel like celebrating. All I see if the number 32, and know that my time is running out to be a young mom.

I had all these plans for tody, I was going to get up and go to the eye doctor appointment I had then come home and exercise and then relax the rest of the day.. but I don’t even know if I will do all that. I think I am going to just hide out today…..

    Oh Sweetie, come on…smile…one smile…for me…you can do it! Just one quick little smile :D
    I so know how you feel and I know that no matter what people say and do it still hurts. I don’t know if you went to a doctor and what the doctor said would be the reason for not getting pregnant? I used to be on forums where all women had the same wish and there were a lot of women who tried for so many years and nothing happens, until they stopped trying. I am not saying that will work for you, but maybe you put to much pressure on yourself? I know… how do you stop trying if that is all you want, right?…not so sure. I stopped doin’ the “baby dance” by calender. It took a lot of pressure of me and hubby. Your body will let you know when the time would be good, without all the measuring (don’t know if you do that, I used to - every day). Also weight can be an issue. Don’t give up working hard on your weight loss. You never know if that might be the reason. Maybe all you need right now is a break from trying. Not saying you shouldn’t do the “baby dance” ;) , just do the “dance” because you feel like “dancing”, not because the date on the calender tells you it’s time. I know, you don’t want to waste any time not trying, but you need to give yourself a rest. Not for long, just a little bit. Try to take the pressure of just for little while. Wishing you all the luck in the world and keeping my fingers crossed that those little guys finally find the way ;) ! ((BIG HUGS)) :)

    Oh girl. Don’t hide! Happy Birthday! A good present to yourself would be to hit that appointment and work out. Take care of yourself! I am sorry for the disappointment, but I agree that sometimes all the stress of “trying” makes it not happen…. Good luck. I feel for you.

    IT DIDN’T HAPPEN TO ME UNTIL I GOT 20 LBS UNDER 200 LBS. JUST HANG IN THERE. AS LONG AS YOU KEEP YOURSELF MOTIVATED THE WEIGHT WILL COME OFF AND IT WILL HAPPEN.
