Does anyone else’s feelings get hurt when someone tells you to “just stop thinking about it and then it will happen” when ttc?

Question

My husband and I lost our first pregnancy in March of this year and I have been in quite a funk since Dec 23 when my due date rolled around. People can tell that I’m out of sorts and they keep trying to give me and my husband conception advice. Most of the things that people say help me to feel a bit better, but then they say “just don’t think about it and it’ll happen.” How in the world am I not supposed to think about it?!? Rant over.

Answer

I miscarried Dec 25 this year. Worst Christmas ever. I was so excited our families were so excited . I was only 5 weeks but it still hurts a lot it was my first pregnancy . I have so many things going through my head and the worse is not knowing what I could have done differently.  People say it’s life and so forth but what does that really mean and how is that comforting. Life is for me as a women to be able to carry all the way through and give birth the way god intended for a woman.

Answer

I swear to god if one more family member tells me to stand on my head and it’ll happen I’m gonna blow. I feel ya lady! Sending you baby dust

Answer

Exactly. I feel you girl. Sending you hugs and baby dust!
