Where to start?

Thanks! I realize I'm a huge part of the problem, my refusal to get a life because I felt guilty not putting H and D first, and then getting mad if H didn't want to spend every free moment with me. H is probably tired of being "responsible" for me - I think as soon as we were an item I was deferring to him on everything. Now I'm doing things my way, and it feels good.

Hi - Wow. Sounds like you are doing amazingly well, and 7 months preggers at that! Kuddos to you! I bow in awe before you. You sound so VERY strong and are implementing the DB techniques better than me. I'm terrified of being a single Mom b/c that was not in my life plan. I'm pretty sure this is why I keep backsliding...

I went through 6+ years of intense infertility treatments and was very fortunate to see a world-renowned psychologist who specialized in pregnancy/infertility, so I learned a lot about the biochemistry of pregnancy as a result. It is SO important to stay stress free while pregnant and avoid any negative or traumatic kind of emotions if at all possible. There have been many studies that stress to the Mom equals stress for the baby. Please be gentle and kind to yourself every day. Let everyone else PAMPER YOU, if your H will not. YOU DESERVE TO BE LOVED, TAKEN CARE OF AND PAMPERED!!! You are growing another life!!! Focus on staying happy for your baby and other child.

I will say some prayers for you and keep you in my thoughts.
