About Me
Okay, so here’s my story, and I’m hoping that anyone who is “wishing to be a mommy” can relate and will share their confessions of this journey, and of the challenges we face as we trudge the road of infertility. read more It’s Just Another Manic Monday

Well, I survived another childless weekend but I had to avoid the big bash baby shower of the year that took place on Saturday. I did send a $100 gift certificate though which is the going rate for I feel guilty and ashamed for not being there but i’m happy for you, really…I have noticed a slow pattern of disconnect beginning to emerge between myself and my pregnant friends, or even friends with babies. I wonder how long that can go on for…I can’t really avoid them forever, can I? How does everyone deal with this? I really need to know how people get through every single day while watching the world around you get pregnant-
My confession for the day: it’s tempting to disengage from all pregnant friends and family members…
I too agree with you. Its very, very difficult… no doubt. I am a business owner who has a person who works with me. She told me last week that she was pregnant. Immediately, that through me into a 4 day deep depression. I too have experienced all too often, that all the women around me are able to get pregnant and they do invite me to their baby showers. I DO NOT ATTEND BABY SHOWERS! In this fragile state that I am in, I have to be careful… and guard my heart and my own feelings. I just can’t deal with it… and in most situations… I choose not too! Its hard enough just to make it one day at a time… in which there are commercials on TV, neighbors pregnant or walking their babies, grocery stores… etc. We are surrounded by this overly agitating issue! It never goes away. I am yet to experience the old cliche’ that time makes things better! THAT’S just a flat out LIE!! In this situation, time… makes things worse. I too have disengaged from all pregnant friends and family too.
