Yes, what everybody has said. And give yourself permission to break down. It's part of the cycle. Don't hold it in until you break. It's not good for you or the baby. If you need to cry, cry. Hyphen Mamas last blog post..Viewing Life Through a Camera Lens

Everyone has bad experiences.

It’s how you cope that makes the difference.

(someone once said that)

No matter how upset or worried you are about something, that does not make it go away. It will still be there no matter which way you deal with it. If you deal with it in a way that will benefit you and your family that is the best you can do.

I cope by cleaning the house. Yesterday I was upset and by this morning the house was spotless and all the washing done. That’s how I cope, I try to put some organisation in my life some other way. I know you’re a smart girl and you will work yourself out.

Good luck xxx

P.S My Nathan knows whats going on with me even if I don’t tell. I bet yours does too.

This shit is always hard. I'm the same. My shoulders are strong, but when the weight becomes too much, the tears come. nikkis last blog post..Do you feel like quoting Poe?

I'm just so sorry for what you're dealing with. I think we all have our own ways of coping and there is no *right* way to cope. I, too, have felt the urge not to let my family see how much I have hurt inside, and functioned very mechanically when presented with bad news. Thank you for your raw honesty on your blog. I think we all help each other when we share in this way. Debs last blog post..Deb and swimming class, Vol 1

Hugs honey. I’m right there with you. Like standing beside you in spirit. Isn’t it funny how life NEVER stops with a child, and no matter how badly you want to cope, you really can’t b/c the kids are there, always: needing, wanting, demanding…

Veronica,

I have no advice for you.

I mean, I could tell you all the things that in hindsight I might have done when my father was dying but in the end, I coped about as well as you are now. Denial is a very strong urge, vaguing out another…

You will deal with it the best way you can and yes, it is hard and yes there will be awful days and also days where you cannot function properly. Stress is nasty that way.

Hugs, plenty of hugs.
