Tomorrow is going to be a hard day

[jenn1298]

I had a m/c in January and my due date would have been tomorrow. I was really hoping to be pregnant again before this day, but I got a BFN this morning. I keep telling myself to enjoy life without children and that we will have one soon enough. This seems to be helping, but I am still feeling a little down and I am worried that tomorrow is going to be worse.

Anyone want to share their favorite things to do from before they had kids (or your favorites now if you don't have children)?

I am so sorry for your loss:( I hope you get your take home baby soon.

I say enjoy all the lazy time and random weekend naps and sleeping in!

[lightbulbsun]

I'm so sorry.

My favorite thing to do is drink j/k kind of, because I assume it becomes harder to have to opportunity to drink when you have kids.

[jaylea]

I'm so sorry. I hope you have a baby coming home with you soon.

To be quite honest, I'd go out and drink to excess, then go home, crash, sleep in and be lazy ALL DAY the next day. This is something I definitely don't get to do enough of these days.

Favorite thing about before I had kids: I could afford to buy nice clothes and stuff for myself. Also, I slept all. night. long.

Sleeping in. Eating breakfast/lunch/dinner without having to share half my plate with a little wide-eyed kid, hand outstretched, waiting for little treats from my plate.

Sorry for your loss. I had one in February, and it sucks.

[partiallysunny]

Sleeping in, naps, reading into all hours of the night, and being able to kiss and cuddle H with out the kid trying to wiggle his way into the middle of it.

I'm sorry for your loss. Do something wonderful for yourself.

Eat out at a restaurant and enjoy your meal.
Shop without worrying about little hands grabbing breakables off shelves.
Sleep.
Drink without worry.
Travel. Have a relaxing vacation.
Spend the day out and don't worry about nap times.

Sorry you're having a rough day!

[iamgrace]

I'm sorry. Drink. Sleep. Shop. Spa

I am sorry. On the due date of my miscarriage, I cried a lot. And drank.

I now have another miscarriage due date coming up and it does get a little bit easier. Hugs

I'm sorry for your trials. Keep your chin up.

One nice memory from pre-kids: sex didn't have to be quiet or scheduled, I didn't have to tip toe or stealthily maneuver into the bathroom afterwards.

[jenn1298]

These are all great! I love my sleep and my alone time.

I'm so sorry. I've been there and it was really hard for me when that due date rolled around too. Just take it easy and cry if you need to. Maybe do something nice for yourself like a pedicure.

I'm really sorry : (

I'm so sorry for your loss.

One thing I miss tremendously is staying up as late as I want (with lots of wine!) and sleeping in as late as I want. Reading the paper with a big cup of hot coffee (that I don't have to worry about a mobile kid knocking off the table and scalding herself). Leisurely brunch with H, followed by a nap.

[flamingeaux]

Have sex in the living room, in the middle of the day!!!

[underwaterrhymes]

I'm so sorry.

[sneetch]

I'm really sorry. I don't have kids but do want them soon. My friends who are parents always say enjoy sleeping in, reading all day, drinking lots of wine and being responsibility free. It's nice to be able to do all those things.

[tinybride]

I'm sorry

I've been in your position myself in 2010. I took my mc hard especially because at the time we had secondary infertility issues and I was so angry that I felt we blew our one chance. On my would have been due date, I didn't feel as bad as I thought I would. I reflected on it a bit but then talked to a friend and later got my hair done.

Just try to stay busy for a little while. Maybe go shopping, or get a pedicure.

I'm so sorry. I miscarried in January as well and I am not looking forward to my would be due date either. ({)

Do something nice for yourself. Sleep in, go do something that you really enjoy, and go for dinner.

[vanillacourage]

Enjoy a meal all the way through.
Enjoy a tv show all the way through.
Enjoy a road trip all the way through.
Enjoy a night of sleep all the way through.
Enjoy a trip to the mall all the way through.

I can go on...

So sorry for your loss, take the day to do whatever will make you feel better.

[bab]

I'm so sorry for your loss.
I think you should sleeeeeep in. I miss that so much. Go have a nice brunch and take a little shopping trip for yourself.

[winston]

I'm so sorry. Former due dates are so hard. ((hugs))

[Deleted]

I am so sorry you are hurting. Things i miss are time with my girlfriends. Long phone conversations, girls night, and nursing a girls night hangover on the couch watching a slew of lifetime movies. Also dancing until the clubs close and devoting a whole day to finishing a book.

[mudslide]

I'm sorry! Drink!

[jenn1298]

Thank you everyone, reading all of your responses has made me feel much better.
