Medicine isn't going to help that at all, don't see why these doctors can't understand that!
I hope you are able to keep in contact with your husband more and that he enjoys himself on his small break. May you and your family be reunited really soon. Take care!

Thank you! It is another adventure. More fodder for my husbands spiritual writing. Life is struggle... if it is not one thing, it is another. This though, at times feels like way more then I can handle and at other times, I can breeth and it is ok. Pregnant hormones make the ups and downs more dramatic but still....

Kimmy,

I just read this thread all the way thru for the first time.

All I have for you is many, many



Please come talk to us anytime about anything.

Hopefully I didn't bug you by telling you to look for help. I totally understand why you cannot go that route! Been there (except the military thing) and it stinks. I just don't "fit" groups generally.

Okay, if I were you, I would be worried too! I'm so sorry you are going through this. Being apart is tough, but being apart when you know your husband may be in danger must just be unbelievably challenging. I can totally understand why you would break down, especially at night when the kids are asleep and there's nothing to do but let your mind wander.

(((((((((Kimmy))))))))))

I'm so glad you got to hear from him and talk to him!

You care and some people MUST have that kind of help. And I will go after it again if I can not function. I have a friend that is keeping an eye on me and a few that will be stopping by after baby as well to make sure PPD does not set in. I am even getting a power of atterney for a friend with an attached to do list in case I end up in a padded room. That is my worst nightmare and never happened bad before but I need to be ready. I want to make sure I get a breast pump and baby gets breast milk and that my daughter does not get put in public school and they are aware that November is her NaNoWriMo month and that is what she will focus on. I will be ready and will have support set up. I am going to talk to my midwife about what meds are breastfeeding friendly if they need to put me on them as well.

In my dreams, baby comes and everything goes peacefully and well. But who knows what hormones have in store for me!

Blessings,
Kimmy
