I have to post an apology to my dear DG. I wrote that seeing a picture of her beautiful twins made me hurt. That was poorly written. Seeing babies makes me long for a baby, and the longing is painful.
On the contrary, seeing DGs babies make me exceedingly happy. Happy for her. Happy for them. Happy for her family. Happy for KF and her family. Happy and hopeful for those who have suffered so many times due to failed TTC and recurrent miscarriages. Happy for all of us, because seeing her family, I know that there is hope. She's been through a lot and I hope that my poor choice of words did not hurt her.
I deeply apologise.

You know what? I'll bet she understood completely what you meant. That's what we stirrup queens do best -- understand each other. Hugs to you.
I knew exactly what you meant and I bet DG did too. Just because you are happy for her, doesn't mean that the image of the success that is still alluding you doesn't cause any pain.
Oh no, don't apologise. I understand, really. I have several really good online friends.. and actually, my friend/donor, who struggled to have children and my feelings were so mixed when they succeeded. So I understand completely... you're happy for them, sad for yourself, guilty for being jealous... all mixed together.
I have been quite quiet while I was pregnant, in my blog and on the recurrent mc forum i post on... because I didn't want to cause any sadness.
But since the babies have been born everybody asked about pics and so i posted them, knowing they would bring mixed emotions. And that's OK. Of course it is.
When I look at them, I just wish everybody could have them.
