Hello all....I must have some case of PMS or something b/c today I'm just blah and thinking, when will it be my turn? I've taken a step back from posting and stuff......My birthday was earlier this month and my brother's is the day after. He came up from PA with SIL and 2 nieces. We were busy playing with the girls when they mentioned about being ready to play with another (this will be #3)! WHAT? Unfortunately, having been through this 2x before with them, I hope I didn't come off as cold. This time, I couldn't shed tears any more, I guess I've put up this wall of "I'll never have my own child" mentally to protect myself from heartache. But you know how it is----see a girl who just got married in Aug, due in June (boy, that sure was a honeymoon baby), girls that certainly don't need another child b/c they can't take care of the ones they have, etc. At least my brother can take care of his family and they just moved in the fall to a bigger house. Mom said she think it was planned, as one niece will be 5 in June and the other just turned 2 in December.
I heard this funny thing about people that want something so bad, are educated (like DH & I are---both college grads with B.A's), have a house, been married for a long time (will be 10 yrs in June) and yet we are having the hardest time getting pregnant. Then there are those who just shouldn't be having so many kids all the time i.e. the welfare kids, parents whose kids get taken away by CPS, etc. It is sooooo true! But you feel bad feeling that way, ya know?
Thanks for letting me vent for a bit!

I've been asking that question alot lately too.
