I've noticed this, uh, phenomenon of sorts lately. It all goes back to the days when I was either 1 - NOT pregnant, or 2 - pregnant and having a miscarriage. People checked on me a lot and everyone felt super sorry for me. It sucked to be the pity person, but I also hoped those people hugged their babies just a little bit tighter that night, and I think they did.
These same people are now repeatedly checking up on me and mah pregnancy. It's really sweet and of course, I can't talk about it enough, but, well, um, they all start crying. Well not everyone, some of my friends are still pissed that I can't get drunk with them anymore. But the ones who aren't alcoholics are very interested and very weepy.
They are just so happy for me that it is finally going well and it causes them to cry. Weird* huh?
* I don't mean weird like stop crying or calling me. Just weird like unexpected.
Aww, you're making peaple cry, that's so sweet. lol Actually it really is, you must have some great friends!
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing to my IF friends...and I remember them doing it for me...just crying for the sheer relief that something finally worked..I guess.
ReplyDeletein any case, *sniff, sniff* I'm just glad you're ok.

It just goes to show how many people love and support you! The heartbreak of a miscarriage is indescribable...as is the joy and overwhelming love you have growing inside you now.
