Guest guest Posted August 17, 2001 Report Share Posted August 17, 2001 Janice, I don't have any doubt that you will be a great mom! RE: Janice , I agree! I am so happy that I’m probably having a girl. I somehow just knew it would be a little girl to comfort me after my loss. I hope I can be a good mother!

I always had to know what I had in there! It made things easy for me, since I'm a major planner. I can't wait for you to find out and let us know! Take Care! {{{HUGS}}} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2001 Report Share Posted August 17, 2001 Janice, LMAO! ...sisters w/o having to share our clothes! Oh by the way, I forgot to say this in my response to your u/s post. They didn't tell my the weight and length either when I went for my u/s, so you aren't alone. Actually they didn't tell me much of anything, but I beleive the reason is that the u/s techs are not suppossed to make any judgments...that's suppossed to be left up to the radiologist and the dr. So I'm hoping that I can get a little more info from my dr at my appt next week! -AmyR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2001 Report Share Posted August 18, 2001 Oh, okay, I”ll quit being so hard on them. I go see the dr. week after next. I’ll just have to be patient. Janice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2001 Report Share Posted August 18, 2001 Janice, You make me laugh sweetie. Aren't you getting a little ahead of yourself. I know how you feel about the mother issue. I've never been close to my mother either and I just love having the girls so I can break the mould in that department. Love & hugs, Jo-Ann susan Thank you for all your warm wishes! I am so ecstatic now. My mom and I have never been close so I’m looking forward to having a daughter so I can do all the things my mom didn’t have time to do with me, like talk about AF, buy the first bra, get her primped for the prom, etc. Janice 20 wks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2001 Report Share Posted August 19, 2001 Jo-Ann, Ha! I guess I am getting ahead of myself. I’m just looking forward to doing a little girl’s hair, talking to her about boys, etc. Last night we were over at the inlaws and my sil has a 2 year old with tons of energy. All they could keep saying was are sure your ready for this? etc… I don’t understand why people have to do that. Why can’t they just say nothing at all if they find parenting overwhelming. I mean, it’s not like I can get out of this situation now anyway. I expect to be exhausted a lot of the time, but what am I going to do if we don’t have kids? I’ll be in my 50s one day, my folks will be gone, and I won’t have anyone to share things with except my dh. Okay, I’ll quit rambling. I just wish people who have children would say nothing if they can’t say something nice. Janice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2001 Report Share Posted August 19, 2001 Janice, You should hear the comments I would get when I would tell them I was pg with my fourth. "Are you crazy?" "Why would you have another?" So I'm not surprised. I think people just don't think before they open their mouth. Kind of like my friend who said after my ep (which would have been our fourth) - "Aren't you relieved?" I wanted to scream "No I'm not, I wanted that baby!" There are good times and bad times with kids, I just wish people would focus more on the good. Love & hugs, Jo-Ann RE: Janice Jo-Ann, Ha! I guess I am getting ahead of myself.

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2001 Report Share Posted August 20, 2001 Jo-Ann, Thanks for the words of understanding. I think it’s great that you have 4 kids and if you decide to try for the 5th, go for it!!! Your house will be full in your old age between your children and grandchildren. After all, children are eternal. I can’t believe someone asked you if you were relieved when you lost your baby. People just do not understand what it’s like. I’m sorry you had to hear that.

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2001 Report Share Posted August 20, 2001 Pam, What blows my mind is that it’s not like I’m engaged or something and I can call the whole thing off. I’m committed now even though my life won’t really change for another 4 ½ months. And you’re right, I haven’t heard any of my friends who had trouble becoming pg bemoan anything. We take our blessings for granted. Janice 20wks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
