After some opinions. Title says it all really - had a MMC at 12 weeks on May 10th. Was first (longed for, after taking 2 years) pregnancy. I'm back at work and doing ok but I have good days and bad days. We were due to go to a friends' baby's christening this weekend. They are Uni friends, not that close but part of a wider group we see a few times a year. I am not keen to go in that I am worried about ending up in floods of tears and about the fact that it will all be a reminder of everything that has been taken away from us. Won't be helped by the fact that one of the godparents is pregnant, and all our other friends have long since had kids - we would be the only childless ones there.
So, would you go? Husband is supportive and says we probably shouldn't go and that people will understand, but I'm worried about coming across as a spiteful b. Equally, I think the whole event will just fuel my self pity and make me angry about our loss, which I don't want to feel - trying to stay positive. Bit conflicted about what to do.
