Gabriel: I actually gasped when I read about a BF and baby on the way!! I am amazed that you were able to keep it so together and ask her politely about her status. Very well done. You are doing great. I know it is hard to not get discouraged when I get discouraged. It sounds redundant but it's not. I sometimes think I should be beyond feeling this or that and when I do, I get a little disappointed and frustrated. But then I realize it is ALL part of the process. We can't be too hard on ourselves yet at the same time we can't let our guard down either. Jo did an excellent job analyzing your progress. I would print it off and keep it somewhere you can refer to it. Stay strong. M
