To answer Nancy's question, I did not have a c-section last time. I didn't even have an epidural! I wanted a natural birth. Unfortunately, I had to be on the pitocin because I was 10 days overdue. I was worried about the baby having the meconium staining, so I agreed with my dr when she said I should get started. I remember when she broke my water & said that it was all clear, I was so relieved! For all my TTC friends, I'm going to label my jounals: PREGNANCY or INFERTILITY. I know it's hard to hear all about someone's pregnancy when you want it so much. I remember all those years sitting in ANY gathering of women, pregnancy/childbirth ALWAYS came up in the conversation. It was hard for me to hear over & over. I love my friends here, & I would never want to hurt them. The nice news is that out of all my friends here who were once TTC, 3 of them are now pregnant with me. I also have 5 friends here who have secondary infertility like me. So eight of my friends should be okay with my pregnancy journals. I'm praying the rest will be with us before too long. This place is so great! What a help it has been to me!

Thats a nice plan---you can never go wrong w/ being sensitive w/ people going thru. something difficult!
thanks for the thought I will do that too. no one needs to read things that will hurt them. there is enough of that outside.
