After you said our paths were so similar, of course I had to go looking.<BR/><BR/>Our paths were awfully similar. Early marriage, time as a couple, ambivalence about parenthood, 30 looming, infertility & suddenly realizing how desparately we wanted children, the half-pregnant-low-beta/progesterone hell, waiting for the other shoes to drop, and finally the joy.<BR/><BR/>I'm crying because I understand every emotion you went through in that post.Lawyer Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06819273107327846943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13083972.post-15953573646000175702006-12-02T16:21:00.000-06:002006-12-02T16:21:00.000-06:00Oooh sorry about typos...I had a little help writi...Oooh sorry about typos...I had a little help writig that LOL.Julie Pipperthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03169574697104642479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13083972.post-11713097297508740572006-12-02T16:20:00.000-06:002006-12-02T16:20:00.000-06:00Thanks everyone!

I'd feel torn between preserving or destroying it.<br /><br />Anyway...I'm glad I did this now because walkign back through all the memories helps me understand why i feel as I di about think I can decide about an additional child. See, to me, it still isn't a choice. <br /><br />But I'mm geting ahead of myself.<br /><br />Part 2 coming very soon.

I too was on the edge of my seat.<br /><br />I remember when I was pregnant (after none of the ordeal you went through, we caught the second month), I thought for sure I'd lost it at 5 weeks. And I was devastated. Turns out I was wrong, and everything turned out fine. But I remember talking to a woman who was more pregnant than me and she said, if I'd had a miscarriage that early I would have just accepted that it wasn't meant to be. And I felt very angry.cinnamon gurlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05363288586285868779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13083972.post-79858709152913707862006-12-01T17:58:00.000-06:002006-12-01T17:58:00.000-06:00Holy cow!

A friend of mine is due in February after four years of infertility, and I think that all her friends share that sense of how very special this baby is. <br /><br />I can't wait to read the next (two?) instalments!Beahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15957626443087438904noreply@blogger.com
