Myra mentioned to her that she really understood how she was feeling during her miscarriages since she was not pregnant after trying for a whole month without being pregnant.
Obviously, this is not the same situation as all, and she was upset by what Myra said to her, especially since she had gone through 2 years of miscarriages and trying to get pregnant, which she felt didn’t compare to one month of Myra’s pregnancy journey.
One month later, Myra did get pregnant and shared the news with her not long into learning of her pregnancy.
“I congratulated her and hoped she would also ask about how I was,” she said. “She didn’t. She talked a lot about how scared she was to miscarry and I felt somehow forced into telling her this wouldn’t happen to her (like to me…).”
When she finished chatting with Myra, she sobbed for an entire hour. She then decided to limit her conversations with Myra, and she was surprised that Myra didn’t try to talk to her at all after that conversation.
She and her husband continued on their pregnancy journey, with their next step being fertility treatments since she required that after undergoing all of her surgeries.
Myra was aware that she and her husband were starting the fertility treatments, but Myra never once reached out to check on her or see how all of that was going.
In turn, she chose not to reach out to Myra to inquire about how her pregnancy was going at that point.
She did end up talking to Myra about a couple of subjects that had nothing to do with either of their pregnancy journeys, though Myra never made an effort to reach out to her about anything first.
Finally, she had some good news: she was pregnant this past November. Sadly, she miscarried in the early part of December.
She didn’t let Myra know about this, and then around Christmas, she sent Myra a present like she does every year, and Myra sent her one in return.
