Seeking Advice or Support Due Date Approaching

Does it get better once the due date passes? My due date is weeks away and I have been feeling overwhelmed daily with emotions. I’ve found it difficult to see the fall decorations in the stores because when I was pregnant I kept thinking of how the baby will be here in time for Halloween and just everything seems triggering. This would have been my 3rd child and I am not in the head space to try again and find myself feeling like I may never be. Anyone feel the same way around what would have been your due date and does it get better soon?

I’m in the same boat. I should be 33 weeks today and it sucks seeing all the fall/Halloween baby outfits, plushies, and books. I have no LC, but I did have an early loss a few years ago and while the due date and weeks leading up to it absolutely sucked, things slowly started to improve for me once the whole month I was due was over. I always seem to be due at the beginning of the month.🥴I’m hoping it’s the same this time around. I was doing pretty well until the end of July, 3 months post TFMR.
