Bad news from my friends

[bronxgirl]

I totally suck at making post titles


Last night I talked to one of my good friends and told her about my miscarraige. It was really good to talk to her, but I feel so awful for her b/c she told that she actually just had a m/c 2 weeks ago. Tonight one of my college friends whom I haven't spoken to in a couple years (other than FB) called me b/c she is in the midst of a messy divorce and it turns out her husband has been very emotionally abusive. I feel so terrible that she has been in this awful situation for so long, but I am happy for her for finally getting out. She also told me that she is 15 weeks PG. So my one friend and I who are in stable healthy marraiges and want nothing more than one more child to add to our families can't make that happen and my other fried who is about to become a single mother to 3 kids now has another on the way. WTF, Universe?

Sorry about your loss. I've noticed the same thing happening constantly lately. I don't know if it's age and simply life happening or if the universe truly is that screwed up.

Sometimes I think a lot of people just make life more difficult for themselves, too. I'm always surprised when people have an "oops". Is birth control really that challenging to use? Perhaps in your friend's case it was just the push she needed to get out.

That's a lot to process. I'm so sorry for your loss and for the difficult situations your friends are in. I hope you all find peace and comfort.

When I had a miscarriage in April, it seemed like everywhere I went there was a pregnant teenager, which is not extremely common where I live. It made me very angry for a long time.

Sorry for your loss.

Oh man, life really does seem unfair sometimes.

that is a lot to process, sorry about all of these situations, especially your loss.

That is a lot going on, and especially all at the same time among you. Be gentle with yourself!

I'm sorry. That's always the way. When I lost my first pregnancy someone was on MM bitching about how she got pregnant with a condom *and* remained pregnant after taking the morning after pill. I mean, sucked for her too, but...really.

all 4 of their kids (this one included) were"oops" babies. I can understand one, but 4? I guess they either don't use birth control or don't use it very well. For the first kid they were just dating at the time, but got married after she got PG. I've always wondered if they would have gotten married had she not stayed PG.
