Seeing other announcements

How do you get past the feeling of jealously and upset when other people announce their pregnancies, especially when they are due when you were meant to be due??? I was meant to be 12 weeks today, we are away and we were always planning to announce today, I’ve been on my instagram and 3 close friends have announced their pregnancies. Although I’m obviously happy for them, I keep feeling like “why can’t that be me” “how was it so easy for them and so hard for me”

Me too we should be almost 11 weeks. This is my second miscarriage and last time it was the hardest in this first month when people announce with the same due month you had. They feel the most connected and the ones I envied and struggled with the most. Each day it got easier and the anger became manageable and my rainbow baby (we fell pregnant 5 months later) was unbelievably worth the wait. Hope your feeling better soon xxx

Please keep whatever faith you have and understand, what’s meant for you will be for you. It will come to you with no confusion, anger, or grief. It’ll happen for you sooner than later. Focus on the now of recovering, discovering yourself once again and give yourself grace! It’s completely normal to feel that way 🙏🏻🤍 Sending you so much strength! I too just had a miscarriage this past week, mixed emotions!

I completely understand this feeling. It is totally normal and ok to feel hurt. Just don't interact with them until you're ready. Your turn will come 🙏

I just had my induction this past Friday after a MMC at 14 1/2 weeks and I can whole heartedly say I’m going through grief but God has helped me through it every step of the way, I’m leaning into Him for everything that creeps into my mind and though it’s still hard I know without God it’d be a million times harder.
