Hey!
My best friend said she was off with her days too so she's actually further along than she thought. Crazy how this all works! Glad to hear everything is going well though!
I am REALLY trying not to symptom spot this month but man I feel very different. I ovulated last week and I'm still having some cramping. I've had to pee all the time (like I had to pull over at my husband's school so I could run inside and pee because I couldn't wait to get home) TWICE now...Idk. I'm just trying to relax as much as possible Getting my hopes up is very hard not to do.
On a side note, I was really upset with my sister the other day. Long story short I was telling her that I was surprised one of my cousins told the family she's having a baby and she's only 9 weeks because some of my friends don't say they're pregnant until the "safe" zone of 12-16 weeks because of possible miscarriage. She got all huffy and said why should anyone keep that a secret, miscarriage is not their fault and so on. I of course agreed that it is never anyone's fault they miscarried, but some people blame themselves, even if they know they didn't really do anything wrong. She went on to tell me that's just ignorant and how could they ever blame themselves and that's just wrong.
Needless to say I didn't respond. Not only have I had several friends that were devastated to tell me about their miscarriage(s), but they blamed themselves. I felt horrible for them, and have vowed since then never to tell anyone until 12-16 weeks if I were to become pregnant. Anyway, something on my mind. I came to the conclusion that because she's never been through it, or had friends go through it, she's not going to understand.
I know people using this forum would tell people on the forum before that time, which I think is VERY DIFFERENT. This site is supportive is so many ways, which is why I think its ok to tell people in this kind of place. IRL is a different story in my opinion. Anyway, that's what's on my mind lately. I know I could be way off and offend people and I'm very sorry if I did. But that is how I feel.
