Re: confession session
I'd probably have the same reaction. I hate feeling like I don't have the ability to change a situation I'm unhappy with, and I hate having to admit that there's nothing I can do to change it. But I bet it will be useful and it will be good for you both. And I'm really sorry it's taking so long.
And I hate Vinny. Jerk. ::cries again::
Nooooooo! I didn't mean it Noisy!
Have I ever told you the story of when I was pregnant, I walked out of my bedroom and screamed at my H for the foul smell that was coming from the kitchen?
Me: "What in the hell are you making?!"
He looked like I had run over his puppy and held up a pan of cookies.
I screamed at my husband for making cookies. So, you may cry with pregnancy hormones. I turn into an even bigger a-hole than I already am.
maybe you'll find another couple with the same coping mechanisms. Could make for a good double date night out?

Since I wouldn't want Groomz to feel bad about being the only negative AW, I'll go.
I am 7w1d pregnant and I had an u/s yesterday. No heartbeat, no fetal pole (whatever the eff that is). My NP was very positive and kept stressing that it's still really early and I could have implanted late, etc, etc. I'd like to be positive, but I've had 3 prior pregnancies that all started out like this and none of them ended up well. I guarantee I will have at least 2 more u/s just to confirm I'm pregnant with a non-existant baby....again. To make matters worse, I am just getting to the stage in pregnancy where I really don't feel good. And my cat just puked.
FML. Why do I keep doing this to myself?

Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
I LOVED the Ramona books too as a kid. The preview made me super cringe-y, though I will probably see it anyway. In the preview I saw the dad talking about "the longest picture in the world" and my heart melted into nostalgic childhood mush.
I'm sorry about what you're going through Groomz. I can't imagine how frustrating it would be to just have to sit and wait and feel powerless to change anything. I just know that someday really soon you'll be holding your perfect baby in your arms, and all of this will melt away and you'll feel like things are happening way too fast.
Hang in there.
I really appreciate the VIBEZZZZZ, but I really don't want to steal any from Bermuda or Groomz. Their situations seem destined to have a more positive outcome, so please use your VIBEZZZZZ wisely.
Cali, I think you are right. I feel like this is a re-run of previous experiences and I am having the damndest time being positive. I know this has happened to other people and their pregnancies have ended up fine, but I don't beleive that mine will end up well. I don't know how to be positive about this and it sorta makes me feel like an a-hole. I think a Gin martini would help, but I hear that is frowned upon.

Wow. Good to know. When were you finally able to see the goods?

That's gotta be hard, Groomz. I thought of you & Jimmy yesterday. A friend from high school announced that she and her partner are newly adoptive parents. I got a little teary - I was so happy for them, but wistful that it wasn't a similar announcement from you. I'm vibezing hard for you guys.
Mucho likes purple nails and purple cupcakes
Lisa, I don't care what you say, I'm sending vibes to you. So there.
Seriously, that must be so tough. I hope you get a wonderful outcome and all this stress is worth it a million times over in the end.
