I had a chemical pregnancy at the end of January so would have been 3mths now if all had gone ok. Yesterday another lady I know announced her pregnancy to me, she's due in September too when I would have been. I had to really struggle not to tell her that actually I would have been due at the same time but had an early miscarriage - how bad would that have made her feel?!! She's the second friend that's due around the same time, the other one announced she was 8wks pregnant to me the day after I started bleeding. I have to say though, she is quite a close friend so a couple of days after I apologised for my subdued reaction and explained why to her.

Anyone else get this urge or is it just me?

Sorry for your loss. It is a normal thing to feel this way. And it is very hard to hear other people will be having there babies about the time you would have. It hurts because it feels like everyone and the world is moving on and that no-one is remembering your baby. And the reason we want to say to them that we would have been due at the same time is a normal reaction. Its like we want them to remember our little babys. But sadly many, if not everyone apart from our-selfs forget our little ones and most of all thats whats sad.

Take care hunny and dont feel bad.

Hi Gemma,

So sorry for your loss, I had a MMC on 12th March and was due on 19th Sept, I was one of five women pregnant at work all due aug/sept. I'm dreading going back to work and feel so jealous and sad. I'm told it gets easier and suppose hardest part for us will be due dates and when friends babys are born.

Thinking of you :hug:
 
Yep! Know how your'e feeling, I got a sms last week from a good friend to tell me she was 8wks along, and due in Oct... I would have been 1-2wks ahead of her. I'mm very happy for her and her partner, but seeing her next weekend will be hard, she'll be about 10/11wks and possibly starting to show...
 
Boy do I know how your feeling. I think they had every baby show on the week I m/c'd. I would start to watch my normal shows and I swear everyone had something to do with babies. I finally went to the computer, at least I can control that somewhat. I have a freind of mine due in May, but she is such a good one that she calls me instead of just poppin in. I was due in Aug. we were 15w+5d. Our m/c happened March 9.
