No way are you a freak, if so I am too.
It does seem that the world is full of pregnant women or new born babies. I too never noticed this until i miscarried.
It is totally normal to think you are doing ok and then be surprised when your emotions catch you off guard. Over the last two months i have had many times when i thought that i was over the miscarriage and had moved on and then somethin silly would set me off like a TV Advert or something like that.
It does improve. My sister told my nephew that i had a baby in my belly and he was so excited, she didn't have the heart to tell him that it wasn't there anymore (he's only four), she knew i'd be trying again soon and he doesn't really have any concept of how long 9 months is yet. A couple of weeks ago he asked me how long before my baby comes, and was surprised that i was ok with that question, i just told him that not until my belly gets really big.
My point is, that little things will knock you off guard, but eventually you will be ok and that will surprise you too.
Take Care

I'm just like this too. DH has started having to tell me not to stare when in public and I spot a bump. I thought I was obsessed before my BFP, but I'm ten times worse after MC. If I ever get that elusive bump, and catch any lady staring at me, I will probably have to go and give her a hug. And I'll probably end up getting arrested!!!

You are so not alone and definately not a freak. My best friend is 7 months pregnant and I don't know how to be around her. I'm worried she feels uncomfortable around me too, she almost seems embarrassed. When I saw her a couple of days ago I put my hand on her bump and I saw the look of empathy in her eyes. That made me feel really sad. She has been great though and rings me most days to see how I am.
Everywhere I look I too see pregnant women or couples with babies. I find myself smiling at them but inwardly I hurt. My husband is so desperate to be a daddy, I see him looking longingly at babies and pregnant women when we're out and wish I could give him that soon. We went to a wildlife park on Sunday and it became unbareable by the end of the day, I though I'd be ok but it was pregnant women/babies overload. The worst time is when, as someone earlier posted, a baby looks at you and smiles. That happened on Sunday and I couldn't hold back the tears. x

You are not weird! I feel the same way too. Bumps bloody everywhere!

Worst day was when i went in for my medical m/c and the woman sitting next to me in the waiting room had a little kid with her, who she was sooooo not interested in (probably really worried about what ever operation she was going to have) and I felt like screaming at her (but thankfully I didn't!) about how lucky she is to have been able to have children etc etc.

A few of my friends got pregnant at the same time as me. I m/c but they went on to have babies very close to my EDD. I never told them about my pregnancy, so they have no idea why I am acting so odd!

Anyway, for some reason, once they had had the baby, my jealousy was much less than when it had been a 'bump'. Not sure why, but I am grateful!

Here's a bit of luck for us all x
