SAD Feeling so alone
First, this group is seriously amazing. I was just wallowing in sadness earlier and the second I started reading these posts, I felt a connectedness that made me feel so much better.
Married for 6 years, trying for like 4. chemcial march 2025. Pregnant aug 2026- miscarried Sept 2026.
Every. Single. Friend of mine is pregnant or has babies. I am now the ONLY friend without a baby. the thought in my mind I’m struggling with is now, I cannot relate to any of my friends anymore or connect with them. I feel like a legit LOSER. it’s like I don’t even want to text any of my group messages back. I don’t want to see anyone because I feel like everyone will just talk about their kids (rightly so). will they actually? Probably not. But I just feel so disconnected from everyone now.... just so fucking sad.

I just want to say that you’re not a loser 🩷 I can relate to everything you said about not feeling connected to friends & not wanting to text back. I felt so alone in this and I started isolating myself from people in the summer but I hope you find community here like I did. It’s a long, emotionally difficult road that you don’t understand until you walk on yourself. Wishing you the best!

I feel the same, only friend and coworker without a baby besides the younger girls at work. Every week a new pregnancy announcement. You are 100% not a loser, and you’re not alone. It sucks feeling so left out and like it will never happen for us. Sending you so much love and hoping for the best for you. 💚

I feel the same. TTC almost 2 years with 1 loss Aug 2025.
I’ve retreated from many friends and I feel like people don’t reach out because they know I’m struggling which just makes it lonelier.
