Did anyone else feel like this?

So, tonight is our 9 month LIDiversary. On the one hand, I'm happy...after all, we're nine months closer to "Little Maple".

On the other hand, it's bringing up a bit of the feelings I had around my infertility. Yes, we're nine months in...but something should 'happen' at nine months. I know, I need to get out of that mindset, but tonight is the first time during the entire process that I'm feeling it.

I guess I just need to vent a little tonight and get this out, perhaps after I hit 'publish post' I'll feel a little better...perhaps not.

I get it. For those who are pg, they have their baby at this point. This whole wait sucks.

I get it too...At least it would be good to know if you were through the first trimester...WHAT is the end point??

Vent away!!

I know exactley how you are feeling. It really started to hit me 2 weeks ago once we hit the 9 months too. Just take it day by day, some days will be great some are not so great!

Congratulations on your LIDversary. Any day that can be celebrated with cake has got to be good.
It wasn't too bad at the 9 month mark for me. It's today at the 10 month mark that I feel OVER DUE. I know everyone here knows what it feels like.

I really hope that you feel better soon.

You are definitely allowed to have your low moments, and lord only knows that this will not be the last one (hate to tell you)...this is not an easy process to go through!!

Hugs to you. Hope today is a bit better.

Vent away,we are all hear to listen,this is why we all need each other...on the 19th will be 18 months for us...each month we feel like we are that much closer to our lid however we also feel we keep getting that much further away from our referral...all we can do is X off a month at a time on our calenders,keep shopping and stalking everyone elses blogs!!!!
Tomorrow will be a new day...keep that chin up girl!!!!

Hang tough sister, I feel your pain.

Headmeister said...

I'm sorry sister, I didn't even wish you a happy 9th lidaversary... I personally think you're halfway there - let's take bets and see if I'm right :)

Hmmm... I'll bet you a brand new shiny housecoat ;)
