I still remain active and read and post in my Playroom often. For a while I was in and out only once in a while, it was VERY hard to see all of their babies and hear what they were doing and think "why isn't my Kaiya here doing all those things" It made me angry and insanely jealous. I loved all of the girls and their babies and they were all there for me so much during Kaiya's death, so I sucked it up and over time have been able to handle it. I know its different than a DDC, but I just wanted to share that with you. You aren't weird for wanting to check in on them, nor are you wrong for feeling sad, angry or jealous either. We all do what we need to get through it!

I did lurk in with my DDC for a long time after my m/c, but I did eventually stop going, and I haven't even really thought about peeking in in a while. But I did find out that one of the girls who was in my DDC and had a baby this January is pregnant again, and that makes me so jealous - I haven't been pregnant at all since my loss...

I've only been OUT of my DDC for a week now, but I have peeked in once or twice. The gals in there were so great, I just want to see that they're all doing well, since this is still the 1st trimester for all of them. There are some threads I know better than to look at, but I figure I will continue to check in on them now and then.

I still look in my May 2010 and November 2009 play rooms and it still makes me cry at times.

I pop in now and again to see how everyone is doing. Reading what they're going through and sincerely hoping for healthy pregnancies and little ones for all of them is a little therapeutic for me - my work situation dictates that I see little kids and babies and pregnant women all the time and I'm trying really hard to not let myself get too bitter or angry.

I still post in the Jan 2012 DDC. IDK, maybe I'm weird, but rather than make me hurt more over my loss, it motivates me even more to get pregnant again, and helps pass the time between the m/c and when I will hopefully get pregnant again. Plus, I had formed friendships with some of the ladies in the DDC, and just couldn't handle dropping them like a hot potato just because I had lost my baby. I think there is no wrong way to handle this stuff, whatever feels right, and helps get you through, is what you should be doing!

I didn't go back, but I think it's normal to want to know what's going on.

I popped into the DDC's for May 10 & April 11 for some time. I never really posted, but I have to say I lurked longer in the April DDC because I got to know the girls a lot better since I was further along that time...
