My kid (PIP)
in GP Moms
I finally have a minute to AW my Gus. I don't think I'll be sharing my birth story - at least not yet. I'm having a lot of trouble with the emotions surrounding his birth and stay in the NICU. But, here he is! This will probably be *poofed* later, just FYI.

So cute, BB. I'm sorry you're struggling with emotions from his birth. ((hugs)) look at him--you did a great job, mama!

He is just adorable! Thank you for showing him off
I am so sorry you are feeling emotional with his birth and hospital time. Take your time sharing if you choose to even do so. I do suggest writing it down somewhere though. It can be somewhat healing to let it out on paper and also it is crazy how fast all of that becomes a blur and the details all get fuzzy.

Here comes 2u2! Team Green to Team Blue! Baby L born
He is so cute!!!!
My DS was born the day before yours, and I'm also having a hard time dealing with what happened during and right after his birth. I had the complete opposite of everything I wanted, some parts of it were terrifying and traumatic, and I feel furious that after everything we went through to have him, I didn't even get the birth I wanted. And I just had a mini breakdown about the fact that now I can't even take care of my kid because of my c/s recovery; DH has to do everything. If you want to talk at all, let me know. I'm in the exact same place you are.

He is so cute! I can totally relate to your feelings about your delivery. I told my H I feel like I have some PTSD from E's delivery. Even though she was totally fine, it was so scary. They said she had a 50/50 chance of being ok right away and I didn't get to hold her until the special team had checked her out. Sometimes I find myself imagining if she hadn't come out ok and it really upsets me.
One thing that helps is remembering how proud of myself I felt right after delivery. Remember that you did something awesome and now you have your sweet little boy!
Congrats to my TTC buddies Amberley18 and tdmd09!
After 25 months- medicated cycles and a failed IUI- The most planned surprise baby ever is on his way!
He is so precious! Congratulations!
I am sorry you had a rough birth experience.

I'm sorry you had a rough experience, too. It's amazing how much these events can mess with us. Thank you for sharing, and I'm here to talk, too, if you ever want to get it out.
To the other ladies with births that were traumatic or didn't turn out like you had planned, thank you for your kind words. It's nice to know I'm not alone.
