I was just wondering? Has anyone else had the problem of having a hard time going out in public, looking at other peoples children and pregnant women? Wishing they were yours or that that was you? I'm starting to have this happen. I haven't been to the gym in a month and need to start back, but I need some major issuses with motivation. Please help!! I'm 5ft and 182lbs. I need to lose 40-50 lbs. I have been having issues since stopping the hormones for IVF. Any one else have this problem?

Hi Heather

Your not alone feeling as you do. I do think we all have at one time or another. It is so hard seeing others have what you want. It's a situation we have no control over which makes it harder.

Now you are so close to your goal. IF you get back in the gym in a few months you could be there. I too have a hard time with motivation. So lets say Monday we both go to our gyms. I know when I work out I feel so much better. Even if its just getting on the tread mill for 20 minutes.

Good Luck

I know what you mean. I can't hardly stand to go by the baby isle at the grocery store let alone see a pregnant woman. What's worse is when people bring their newborn to church and sit right by me. I've got to where I can't even go to church anymore.

I guess we just need to try and keep our chins up and push towards our goal. It doesn't seem fair at all!! :cry:

Heather,

What you are feeling is natural. I go through times when I can hardly stand to go anywhere because of all the pg women and babies. I have just really tried to be positive lately and convince myself that it will be ME with a baby soon! Hey, a little positive thinking can not hurt, right?

I think we all feel like that a lot. I hate the negative feelings I have when I see happy families and women playing with their babies in the store making funny faces & things. I feel like they're flaunting their babies at me, saying look at my cute baby and my wonderlife...sucks to be you!!! I know they're not, they're just happy and I'm turning green with envy.

Good luck with the weight loss. Try working out in the morning, before your brain comes up with too many excuses. That works best for me. The longer the day is, the more excuses I have. I used to work out at 5:15 AM (before work), it took me about a month to actually get up when the alarm went off and do it, but once I did I got up 3-4 mornings a week and was in the best shape of my life. I felt so good and so confident. I need to get that back!

Hi Heatherde,
I feel that way all the time. It's really nice that you set up this thread cause I thought I was the only one who felt this way. I just had my 3rd mc. Now, I wont even go near the baby stuff. Church will be complete torture when I actually go back. I thought I was just acting stupid and childish, but it really does break my heart each time I see a pg woman or a woman with a baby. I'm glad to know that I am not alone with these feelings.

i know the feeling heather my sister just had a baby on sunday and every time i look at him i wish he was mine. so know that you are not alone we are all here for you.
sincerely
shay
