I noticed you were missing. But Im in the same funk you are. Ive stopped in and read posts, but just haven't felt connected to post much. Just feeling kind of disconnected and lonely lately. Like nowhere to go, don't fit in, don't know what to say kind of thing. In a weird funk right now. Hope we are funkless soon! 
Yeah I think I need a break... thats all.... I'll be back bugging everyone full force sometime soon...
Actually the baby makes me more depressed... LOL. After 5 years of infertility, it's more sadness than happiness when it comes to these things... but I put on a brave face, smile, ohh and ahh over the baby and try not to let it get to me.
The baby is my sister in laws who had WLS Jan of last year, so it does give me some hope that it will be me next year....
I agree. I think you should definitely be encouraged! I hope you are proud of the accomplishments that you've achieved so far with your weight loss. Each day is one step closer to trying for your own bundle of joy. It is tough to be happy for others when you can't have what they have at the moment. I struggle with that sometimes too. My husband did not want any more children and I had to choose between him and ever having children of my own. It was a tough decision and I occasionally feel the pang of loss when I hold someone's baby or attend a baby shower.
I'm sure you and EJ will be great parents when the time arrives!

Darlene, your time will come. You know you have to wait for at least a year after this surgery to even start getting pregnant, and besides I am betting, after you have lost all this weight and EJ continues to lose, it is probably a really big help towards the infertility. You are still very young and have lots of time. It is easier to tell someone this than it is to be in your predicament, but I feel like it is going to happen for you and when the time is right - it will. Before you lost all the weight it wouldn't have been easy for you to be pregnant carrying that much weight, but soon it will be the right time. Your time is coming, just enjoy the wonderful weight loss journey you and your hubby are on right now - and know we are all here for you for support. Barbara
