I was in labor and didn't feel a thing, except crabby.... they tried to use pit to give me hard labor - nothing - and I was due on Aug 20th - She was born by C-section (emergency - they broke my water after 5 days of pit) on Sep 15th. I was never so happy in my life... right after I threw up.<br /><br />Could it be that? Was I afraid? Or was she?Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05815710859859029536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5881694936200344846.post-50393724455208212252011-10-13T21:44:03.705-04:002011-10-13T21:44:03.705-04:00Hugs and love to you on this birth day Cheerio!

I didn't mind at all, for at least he was still with me...<br /><br />I don't think your wish is selfish at all ~ I think he would probably be thrilled to know you are thinking of him and sending him your love.Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15929169562563801608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5881694936200344846.post-70207536831434145972011-10-13T19:50:06.576-04:002011-10-13T19:50:06.576-04:00thanks, Jeannette.
It is only recently I consider...thanks, Jeannette.<br /><br />It is only recently I considered physiological aspect. A friend was telling me about an event she went to where a pregnant woman was way past her due date. Her counselor told her that it was because she was afraid to bring the child into the world - for fear the child would experience the same trauma she had.<br />And that got me to thinking, because taking a child from a mother is traumatic.Cheerio!https://www.blogger.com/profile/00709663898726245342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5881694936200344846.post-33887174401318538572011-10-13T16:49:13.180-04:002011-10-13T16:49:13.180-04:00I'm thinking of you on tis hard day. Happy 17...I'm thinking of you on tis hard day. Happy 17th birthday to your son, I hope one day you can tell him in person. <br /><br />I think there is something psycholgical about going past the due date or having very long labors when you are giving up a child. I was in labor with my daughter (that I gave up) for 65 hours. My next child that I kept I had 2 years later and he was only 5 hours of labor. With my daughter I went 5 days past my due date and with my son I had him a day before his due date.Jeannettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10031950274392571035noreply@blogger.com
