I guess now that Liberty is here I need to find a new hangout. Everytime I as much as scroll through posts in the expecting forum I get all weepy. I'm having a really hard time accepting that I'll never experience pregnancy or give birth again. When I look at my family as it is now of course, I am thrilled, but on the other hand I am sad b/c there will be no more babies after Liberty is grown. I will have all the babies I will one day midwife into this world but none will be my own, yk? I am really trying not to whine about this but it is affecting me so much that I can't even get L's birth story down...and dh just thinks I've lost my mind. :tear:

Thanks for listening.

You may feel better after the hormones have settled down.:hug:
But, your new daughter is beautiful!!

I so understand. I told DH that we weren't trying, of course, but to not mention "being done" to me for several months, until I brought it up again. I knew we were done, but it was very very very hard in those first months to think about it. After a few months, I brought it up again, and he scheduled his vasectomy. I needed that space to process and work through, and let the hormones settle down.

:hug:
