I thought I would post a recent photo of my son. He is so adorable!! I am so blessed!
My work as a fertility and childbirth educator involves lots of babies. As I wrote about earlier, my son's pregnancy was complicated with pre-eclampsia and I am now at a pretty high risk of it occurring again, a complication that seriously endangers both me and any future children. I have been wondering how it will feel to help other women through these amazing experiences after my fertility returns, since it is now dangerous for me to become pregnant.
I so enjoyed giving labor support some weeks ago to a new friend I met through St Croix Birth & Parenting. I was filled with joy! This experience has given me hope that despite the very real sadness I feel at the probable loss of my own future biological children, the joy of seeing other new families "born" will be greater.
