Wow! All the birth stories were amazing. I was about to respond to each one, but I might get kicked off for flooding the thread (more than I am already!).I loved reading them all.
I have to comment and hug
@Syren , @Sarah03 , @eleanors36, @Alexa5 and anyone else ever on the receiving end of hurtful words for having no children, not enough or too many children. We all have reasons for our choices or lack of choices, and I hope mean people will stay out of your way. Some questions are too personal to ask. You never know what someone is going through. I lost my first baby before I told everyone; so only a few knew. Everyone else kept asking what was taking so long because they knew or assumed correctly that I wanted children someday and the clock was ticking. It was painful even to hear what a fun mom they thought I would be. I didn't know if I could even have one. All of you be proud for sticking with what you know is the right choice. Anyone here who cannot have children and wants to, I send a special hug to you too. This was my agony once upon a time. Surround yourself with goodhearted people.
It's important to love the lives we have right now. I wish I could go back in time and tell my younger self all of this!

I'm sorry and your not wrong people just don't know... When my daughter M/c back in October she really didn't tell anyone heck no one really knew anyways that she was pregnant and of coarse because DGS is getting older people kept bugging her on when was she having another....
I suppose because in my life i have made many choices people have criticized as i have aged i now just laugh at the stupid lol. Live your life for you, those who matter typically have value to their input and those that don't can keep running their mouths.
