No more holiday greetings or invites, birth announcements or the like! </i> I get this. The poeple who need me to call them every holiday, birthday, fathers day, mothers day, Flag day, etc. but who don't give two toots about me. vafaincuolo! I've realized this year that true happiness is with the people I live with, My family. They are my first and only responsibility. The rest of them need to know I love them and get over all their expectations of what we are required to do in order to prove our affections.

I like your attitude in this (although I'm sorry some stressful events are bringing it out). The people that are worth impressing are ones who won't care if they get a greeting card. The people who truly care about you and have your best interests at heart will understand your take-no-shit attitude. I'd like a little more of that attitude myself. Hee hee.

Doctors see them more than they'd like. 90% of the time they resolve themselves if you give them a chance to heal. That means bedrest for a short period (overkill in my opinion) and restricted lifting and other activity for as long as it takes. I'm still "restricted" so to speak, seven weeks later! AHHHHHHH! All in all, yes, it is scary. Considering the events wrecking havoc on my life in January/February, I was sure it was a miscarriage. Thank God it was not. We truly would like to know the sex of the baby, though. Hubby is really rooting for a boy this time around and he is as curious as all hell! We found out with both the girls and chose their names way before birth. Somehow I think it created more of a sense of closeness between us as a family. Also, I'd like to know if it is a boy ... after two girls all we seem to have around here is pink! Apparently, while sub-chorionic bleeds are not common, they are not all that uncommon either.

Scary stuff! Lydia never showed her goods either, but I was fine with it. I was more curious than anything. We never found out with Tim either, by choice. The surprise was fun. :) If we ever considered another one I'd probably keep it a surprise as well. Do they know what might have caused the bleed? Scary stuff!
