  • One positive panda to another. I get it. It's like you are strong and deal with it because life is still going, overall things are great, and you really have no other choice but to pick up and keep moving. I get that and have said the same things in the past for myself. But me watching you, a friend, go through this sucks so bad. Just know that it's totally okay to feel positive today, have a mental breakdown tomorrow, and then rinse and repeat until you get your resolution in Jan and or adoption.

    Also know, happy days or sad, We're here for you love and are cheering for you. <3

  • @cincodemayolove it isn't even day to day. It's hour to hour. This afternoon blew. I HAVE to try and stay positive, but obviously I'm going to fail. Often.

  • I'm furious that the universe has forced you to have to be this strong in the first place but you are incredible. Praying and crossing everything for you in January.

    But don't think like that. The best advice I've gotten from the ladies on this board is that it's okay to feel your feelings. They are yours. And they are ok good and bad. You don't HAVE to stay positive and don't think of it as failing when you're not. I also have had people say "you're so positive! And that's usually because at that moment you are. And that's fine to show the general public and your close friends/ husband when you mean it. But it's also okay to respond "yeah right now I am. I have taken some time to be angry/sad too". I get having to be strong for your h. And I totally get the "I don't want pity" thing. I've had people "bless my heart" and pity me in irl and I just politely inform them that "it's nothing I can't handle. We were delt a bad card and well make it through". Also I get the whole "the rest if life is great so I feel bad complaining" but again, just because you've been blessed and happy does not mean you can't be sad for bad things that happen.

    The morale is, positive is great and keep it up!! Especially to who it's important for you to keep it up around. But know that when you have an hour of sad or angry or all info the above do not think of yourself as failing. Just come on here or pm me and we'll pep ya back up or curse the universe with you. Whichever you need.<3

    Since the baby loss last summer, I haven't cried about anything else. Nothing has felt as though it could even compare, because it couldn't, and everything has felt insignificant.

    Until yesterday. Not as bad, obviously, but pretty effing shitty.

    I'm not entirely exempt from sadness and anger, though I think I a) put on a good front sometimes and b) genuinely do try and focus on a silver lining, hope, faith, whatever.

    Eta- except the miscarriage this summer. I did cry then.

  • I'm not sure what to say to you.  I've followed your story as I've been active and lurked on the board for years.  You are such a strong person, and I wish you the best of luck in your continuing journey.
