What a crazy day.
One friend unexpectedly learns she is pregnant (and is local!  and would be due 6 days ahead of me if this baby 'sticks' and if I am pregnant now). 
Another friend suffers an early loss.
I am elated and heartbroken.  I am thrilled and angry.  I am apprehensive about my own situation of waiting, waiting, waiting and fear disappointment.  It would be too perfect, wouldn't it?  That thought is haunting me now.  Immediately after a miscarriage, at the same time as one of my few local girlfriends?  Where I was happy and excited earlier, that is now tempered with anxiety setting in - that this isn't real, that this is a fluke of the chart, that if it is real, it will not be a healthy, growing baby.
All I can do is hope and pray, and I find both of those difficult.
Besides, I do not need the prayers, really.  My friends do.  Say a little one for them - one for a baby that grows, and one for comfort and hope.
