My issue was that my thyroid hormone never got adjusted after I went off BCP. Spending every day wondering if I was pregnant sucked. Your feelings are totally normal and I admire your strength.Annaleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10763361026658563914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2251672835010980424.post-63758133958167452232012-09-25T17:13:03.730-04:002012-09-25T17:13:03.730-04:00I'm right there with you.

Sure they are your babies but you dont get to experience carrying them. That in and of itself is a loss. <br /><br />And I'd tell that dr to go striaght to hell. I swear its like she hates "too many" babies or something. Thats like saying you'll have too many blessings. I say if you got pregnant sure it wouldn't be ideal but in the end it would be a blessing.

I don't think devastation ever crossed their minds!! What an insensitive thing to say. To even suggest to you that accidentally becoming pregnant would be bad is just horrible!!<br />I think it is totally normal for you to feel jealous. And totally acceptable.<br />Remember, though, that right down to the placentas and amniotic sacs and amniotic fluids, they are 100% your genetic material!!coffee nuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03137989938361142842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2251672835010980424.post-34023145375973682062012-09-24T13:50:29.068-04:002012-09-24T13:50:29.068-04:00Totally normal.

I will never go on bcp again. Our pregnancies don't work out (without help -- hopefully) and I am under no illusions that I would get pregnant on my own. But I would still probably do the same thing you're doing, even knowing it's not likely.

While you are expecting, you have still lost the experience of carrying them yourself and no matter how happy you are about the babies thriving, that's something you're going to have to grieve and deal with. Especially with your body throwing wonky signals and doing whatever it wants, because it's another reminder and something else that you have to deal with. I get it.<br /><br />It's okay to feel that way.AnotherDreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11487881766884178761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2251672835010980424.post-80759663429412754512012-09-23T23:26:08.242-04:002012-09-23T23:26:08.242-04:00Your NOT ridiculous!

It's what you always expected - who expects anything else but to conceive and have their own babies? I am guessing that the hardest part is making the decision to go that route and actually waiting... once you have those babies in your arms, it won't matter how they got here! Congratulations to you, and here's hoping that the rest of the pregnancy goes smoothly!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11642276930655962602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2251672835010980424.post-41140448587868235262012-09-23T22:38:53.994-04:002012-09-23T22:38:53.994-04:00You are NOT ridiculous!!!

Even though we are 100% thrilled with our sweet boy, every month I get my period is still sad because I still am frustrated that it doesn't seem to "work" for us. So, I think it's totally normal to be frustrated with your body and the whole process and still be very excited for your twins. :-) I feel like it's normal for those feeling to always linger at least in part. No matter how happy we are, being pregnant will always still be a loss. But, I'm hoping/planning on it getting easier in time. :) Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04908273745899230162noreply@blogger.com
