I understand. Do have any friends with children or pregnant? If not join a mama group, take prenatal yoga,ect.
Meetup.com is a great place to meet others on your same path to motherhood. It helps with post partum depression which can start DURING pregnancy. I had it because I felt so disconnected from my friends, all of whom didn't have children. While I was gaining weight,  they looked amazing. I had an identity crisis of sorts but connecting with other moms and through meetup.com, I found mom friends. It made the world of difference! ♡

Oh no dragonwings.  So sorry for your loss.
@vixen, why do you feel left behind? Are you being excluded from something?
Anyway, I agree with the pp, just enjoy it for now.

Enjoy every moment, every kick, every twinge of pain. I wish I could say the same. I lost my baby this week. Don't feel left behind, take it one day at a time.
