Hi, and welcome. This blog has changed a bit recently. My husband and I fought through 4 consecutive losses to get our second healthy child (born in December 2012) . . . and while we had not shut the door on the idea of another pregnancy, we certainly were leaning in that direction. On August 8, 2014, we found out we are pregnant for the 7th time. A total surprise. So the neurotic journey continues . . . third child or fifth loss . . . I'm scared and confused and just a teensy bit excited . . .

"How are you doing?"

Pardon my profanity, but how the fuck I supposed to answer that question???

If my doctors ask me that question one more time I am going to flip out and lose my shit. My husband says they are just trying to check on me. Yeah, I get it. So ask, "Is there anything we can do for you?" Or say, "Please call us if you need to talk." But, "How are you doing???"

Perhaps I should say what goes through my head every time they ask. "I just LABORED for 6 hours to flush my dead baby down the toilet. How am I supposed to be doing???"
