Why can't we have that worry-free bliss back again? <BR/>You don't need to be silent, let it out here or on a sub. board. And I like what your friend wrote in the next post.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04531843578369399243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8836584.post-1141145717606803852006-02-28T11:55:00.000-05:002006-02-28T11:55:00.000-05:00Oh for heaven's sake, why on earth do you have suc...Oh for heaven's sake, why on earth do you have such high expectations of yourself? There is nothing abnormal in anything that you are feeling. Abnormal for a subsequent pregnancy, that is. All of this is 'not normal', in the sense that what is 'normal' in our culture is to bring a live baby home. I am glad that is the norm, but it does leave those of us with a different experience...well, as you said, silent.<BR/><BR/>FWIW, Chloe did not have a name until 3 days before i was induced. I never spoke to any other pg woman if i could possibly avoid it. Pg women *bothered* me, even though i was pg, often more than they had done before i was pg. I was polite but cold when strangers asked about my pg, after i was too far along to hide being pg anymore. If they asked further (oh is this your first blah blah), i would bring up my DEAD BABY so that they would shut up. <BR/><BR/>I strongly strongly suggest that you find yourself a subsequent pregnancy support board -- even if you just lurk and don't interact. (I was on the sub pg board at MISS) That way, you will feel less alone, silent, and abnormal. Because you are NOT.katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16536809590856333391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8836584.post-1141137824591140212006-02-28T09:43:00.000-05:002006-02-28T09:43:00.000-05:00(((((((HUGS))))))))) You are going to get through...(((((((HUGS))))))))) You <B>are</B> going to get through this.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14911949137949343109noreply@blogger.com
