Why do I let these things get me down. :(

[CupcakeMummy]

As soon as I hear someone I know is pregnant or has had a baby, it makes me feel really low for a while.

I konw it's not my turn yet, and that I have a wonderful wedding to look forward to, but I can't help it.

One of my colleagues had to leave early today as his wife went into labour, and even worse is I'm worried I'll get all upset when they bring the baby in!

I jsut want to be normal and over the moon for them like everyone else is!!

Also the will be here tonight/tomorrow so I'm blaming it for some of today's misery!

Hopefully not too long hun

Aww - you chose to wait and for the right reasons too

Your time will come

You are probably feeling a bit down because of the witch coming. Try and focus on how exciting your wedding day is going to be and it will absolutely fly by! My wedding day was absolutely the best day of my life and I wouldn't change it for the world. By waiting until after that special day you can then have something new to focus on. So my advice is enjoy each step and don't wish it away because you can't get it back. Jodie x

I felt like this too, and I stopped going to things if I new someone who was pregnant was going. It's tough, but it'll be ok

Glad to hear its not just me.

They brought the baby in last week, and in a funny way it sort of cured my bad mood.

She is a beautiful baby and they are both doing amazing, especially for first time parents.

I was also able to tell my fiance exactly how I was feeling and he was so wonderful to me.

I can;t say I won't get in a rut again the next time a friend announces a pregnancy, or gives birth, but I just need to keep looking forward, and realising my turn will behere befire I know it.

Thanks ladies. xx

Hi, when I took a time to conceive with Jude I struggled with others being pregnant BUT I then realised that I didnt know what they had been through to get there, what lives have people led and what traumas have they had to withstand to get their baby. When I was carrying Jude a woman was really upset with me because I was pregnant and she wasnt and she had a mc and she was very vocal about it. It was only when I chatted with her and explained what my life had been like up until I met my OH and that I too had had a miscarriage AND that I had been through hell and back trying to conceive and threadened miscarriages all through my pregnancy, she realised that she was not the only one that was hurting. Does that help any? Not sure it will but it helped me get through some very tough times xxx

I think it's natural to feel a bit glum when you see other people having what you want. It's like getting your nose rubbed in it. I think this applies to all sorts of things rather than just babies.

I can't really say I know what you're going through cos generally I don't get on well with kids but would like one of my own and hopefully will like it cos its mine

Just try your best to enjoy life the way it is now, and keep in mind that motherhood is not going to be too far away for you xx

It helps loads, thank you. Yes I totally understand, the grass is always greener I think is a part of it.

Although this couple got prenant within a week of deciding, it was good for them as the mum has an illnedd which could well leave her infertile by 30, so they needed to conceive ASAP.

It could well be than in a few years they want another baby but can't, so I can't begrudge them starting early.

Thank you, I think it is a case of jealousy, which is never easy. And I think when jealousy mixes with hormones it's an extra strong mix!
