met an angel mommy in class!!
Randomly, after an intense class discussion in Human Sexuality class about an email a student had sent about being "disgusted and physically sick whenever she saw a pregnant woman" because she thinks being pregnant with a "parasite" is so nasty, I started to talk to a woman in my class.
I don't know why I felt compelled to tell her, but I told her my baby girl strangled on her cord when I was nine months pregnant so I was particularly pissed about that email considering my problems having a healthy baby. She told me she went through the same thing! She had a stillbirth at nine months too and a miscarriage after! Just like I did. But she said she went on to have 3 kids, although with a miscarriage between her son and daughters, but still she DID IT!!
I knew there was a reason why I ended up in this class the way I did, (it was kind of a lucky break I ended up in this class, and not on purpose), I believe in things happening for a reason and I was waiting to see what it would be, know I think I know why.
It's just comforting to know I am not alone. I actually looked around the room in this class before and wondered if I was the only one in the whole school who had experienced this. Now I know for sure it is a lot more common than people will have you think.
