Am I crazy for still having such emotional moments, more then four years after our loss? I really laid it into my husband last night, and he did everything he could, but I was a mess. The whole ball of emotions started after he told me his co-workers wife was expecting again. I'm feeling really stessed out these days, it seems like anything will set me off. Too much to explain really. I just don't want to go back to that really dark place. I know pain from a loss is always there, but sometimes it feels like it falls from the sky straight into your lap...

Sometimes its really hard but try telling your husband how your feeling instead of just laying it on him. Sometimes guys don't always understand. I try to tell my husband when I am in a bad mood so he won't take it personally. By talking it out instead of yelling it may help you communicate better.
sounds like you are human not crazy. do try not to take it out on dh though he is your partner in crime, he lost too, he just deals with it differently. have you thought about taking up an aggressive passtime like kickboxing, aerobics, or something to help you vent? it helps me a lot to wander in here and ramble everyday. a lot of days the sponsor ads on here make me cry....everyone is different be you and that is the most any of us can do...hugs

You are not alone, sweetie. If the baby is still not there in your arms, it still hurts. There is no amount of time that prevents us from having a bad day like that, especially if the world is handing us too much crap. I hope today is better.
Hugs!

Thanks ladies. I know you have all been there. I want to say that I didn't really spaz at hubby. He is sometimes too quick to comfort me, but this time I really just needed to say it all outloud, down to the last drop, before I needed any comfort from him. I agree, he's in on the struggle as well.
Thanks again, and although I don't post much here, I do read often, and I know I always have a place to vent, and no one will wonder what on earth I'm going on about.
Take care of yourselves.

Like Viv said, I too expect to have "off" moments every day for the rest of my life. Not an hour goes by now when I don't think about my losses, and it's been over a year since the first one. My grandma had an infant girl who passed away at 3 or 4 days old and at least 1 miscarriage, and apparently she still mentioned "your sister whom I miss so much" to my dad and uncle even into her seventies. There is no set timetable for grief; it's a unique process to every individual.
