oh god, yes, mk, that is a great line from a great man.

its funny, btw, what you say about your H checking out when you had your S2. not that that is funny, I don't mean that, but I understand, I guess. H and I have even talked about this recently, that when I had the twins, my H started to check out. I can see it now. we see it very differently...I fought for my pregnancy, to carry the twins for as long as possible. I became a research queen, did what I needed to do as much as I could in order to help things along. not easy considering I was on bedrest from 26 weeks on. it was very scary, but I fought, even if it meant occasional disagreements/discussions with my peri (had a high risk ob). H hated that I fought certain things, apparently, even though my dr. didn't. He was cool with most of it, I was educated about my choices, I wasn't stupid about them. but to H, you listen to dr.s, you don't question them (well, except in his own case, a year or so later, when he had his gall bladder issues).

I never really felt that supported by him throughout the pregnancy. I was on bedrest, he took some of the slack, but hey, I was still the one to scrub the bathrooms (he wouldn't) and such. and when they finally just put me in the hospital at 34 weeks and told me I was there for the duration, I was alone and terrfied....and he never really got it.

anyway, I'm not going to go on and on about that time. lets just say I understand.
