Re: marcy
No, and it's bugging the crap out of me.
She's definitely been online (I've seen her blue bubble), but she's never responded.
Maybe I'll post another follow up?
It's bugging me also..!! Hmmm...Maybe post a follow up..but maybe she is embarrassed?

The Sand in My Snow Boots
this was a bit more detail posted on the same day.
She's a teacher in Worcester, he just came here from Haiti yet in her other post she said they had been together for 2 years. 
We aren't telling anyone until after my first appointment...not even family. So right now it's just me being excited. I'm terrified that something will happen.
My husband is Haitian. He's a great guy (obviously, or I wouldn't have married him) but culturally there are some things I wish I could change. He's JUST arrived from Haiti (September) and he's not really adapted and he has no idea of "americans". In Haiti it would be expected that the new mom would go stay with her family for several months and the husband might visit often.
Thanks for your concern. I'm sad too.
::Totally butting in:: I just read through all that. It's a very common conflict in third world - American mixed marriages. She's in the wrong place to get advice on that, though.
I figured it was a huge cultural issue.
Rachel can you simplify (if possible) what the expectations are for a woman to have a baby and how the husband supports it? Maybe not in Haiti but at least where Rogers is from?
I'm always intrigued by this. I'm also super impressed that you and Rogers are always successfully working through the cultural differences.
