Subject: pregnancy Author: Melissa [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 05:02:28 01/27/05 Thu Kellie, Although this is lengthy, please read it completely. I can totally relate to how you feel about others being pregnant when you are having difficulty conceiving. Hi, I just wanted to share my two cents about the crying because others are pregnant. I can totally relate. In Feb 98, my spouse and I lost our first baby, and it took 3 yrs to conceive again. I had given up on trying and couldnt understand why I would get sick to my stomach everyday around the same time. I called Ask A Nurse, and was asked over and over if I was sure I was not pregnant. I was in such disbelief that I would have conceived, (from trying for so long) that when I went to my OBGYN, I discovered I was 13 weeks pregnant with TWINS! For the next 7 weeks, I was in heaven on earth. Sadly though, the babies weren't healthy, and I delivered them at 20 weeks of pregnancy. They were stillborn. I can remember the day of the funeral for them, that I heard God tell me I would be pregnant again very soon. Sure enough, a few months later, I was pregnant again. Once again, we lost the pregnancy... That last pregnancy was in Oct. of 2000. I internalized and tried so hard to reason the cause of my not being able to carry nor conceive again, that it literally made me ill (mentally). Due to the depression, my husband left me and our marriage ended. I wanted to share all of that with you so that perhaps you would choose to take a break from trying to conceive. I've known or heard of so many women who wanted with all thier hearts to conceive a child, couldn't while they were trying, and then did once they quit trying. Kellie, I DO understand how you are feeling, I have been there. Please seriously consider taking a break from it so that it doesn't consume you as it did me, and ruin your marriage as it did mine. I want only the best for my favorite radio dj. I hope to one day be able to help others through the experience and knowledge I have gained in dealing with such tremendous losses. I wish You and Freddie well.... Hugs, Melissa [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
