I'm really upset right now! All I can think about is I would have been delivering my baby in almost 5 weeks, I'd be changing his/her diaper, washing their hair, changing their clothes, singing to them at night, waking up at 3am to feed him/her -- I'm a complete mess!!!!!

All I want is to be pregnant and to be able to experience being a mother. I know my time will come, but when I go lurking EVERYWHERE I feel SO depressed, and I feel that I've failed myself, my husband, my family.

This sucks!

Edited to fix my spelling errors!

******

Yep, I think she's on the way! I feel bloated and the scale is telling me the same. I'm having the feelings I get when AF is around the corner! Today (Jan. 9th) marks CD29, so I'm expecting her real soon! I didn't bother taking yesterday's pill and I won't be taking today's either. If she doesn't come by the 18th, I'm sticking with my plan of testing. But it doesn't look too promising right now!!

Oh sweetie - your post made me tear up.....I am so sorry.

I find a lot of similarities between your situation and mine. We must have shared a similar due date. Mine was 2/27 and I have been feeling down lately too. It is heartbreaking to think where we could have been right now, BUT we will be mommies soon!!

We are all in this together, and please know I am rooting for you to get your sticky bean just ASA(humanly)P!!

I'm so sorry Jessica. I can't completely relate, my due date was Feb. 17th. These days leading up to the EDD are so hard for me, it was like this with my last one as well. BIG HUGS.
