Feeling Left Out

Have you ever felt left out? Yes, you say. Well, you understand how I feel these days. It seems like everyone is pregnant or having babies, and while I am not envious of anyone or have no ill feelings concerning another woman's pregnancy, I do however, wonder all the time why hasn't it happened for me. Am I so different from any other woman on earth, what seems to be the problem. Not only have we lost a child, now we are facing complications conceiving. Life can really seem unfair at times.
I had come to a place where I was settled in life, I was intentionally dealing with our loss, and embracing my feelings, whatever they may be. It was always in the back of my mind that I want to have children, but I was getting to the point where I was comfortable and not stressed about trying to conceive. And, let me tell you, IT IS STRESSFUL! But, I was in a pretty good place with it all. And then these thoughts starting finding their way into my mind, I have been longing so much to experience the completeness of pregnancy, I only tasted 16 weeks of it and I was robbed of what should have been one of the greatest joys life has to offer. Its almost like I can touch it; being pregnant again. Its just a really sad thing to deal with, not only the grief of losing your child, but having complications getting pregnant. I just don't get it, but I have to constantly remind myself that God hasn't forgotten about me!

  2. Trust me, there are others who feel left out! It may not be in pregnancy, but there are others who share your same feelings. I pray that your feelings don't last long!
