LWB,

Sounds like you had good communication there. I hope that he will take the things you say seriously. It does show how wide the gap of understanding is between the two of you, where he thinks sex would mean nothing to you, and you are afraid of how much it might mean to you. Conversations like that are very good.

I am so sorry about your little girl's tummy. I went through that with 2 of my kids. With Kevin we went to a pediatric gastroenterologist and he wanted to scope him. But my brother had us treat him with ulcer medication first. He said scoping was traumatic to children. for him, di-gel did the trick. Then my daughter went through it and the pediatrician insisted on testing her over and over for parasites, which she never had. I gave her over the counter zantac and she was better. If the medication is not working for her, it is not the right medication. When you find the right one, it works almost immediately. Good luck.
