I CAN FEEL MY BABY KICK
AND I CAN’T TELL ANYONE
This is my second pregnancy and although I’m constantly anxious, there’s nothing more
exciting and makes me feel more at ease than feeling my baby kick.
I gave birth to my first child prematurely and he only survived 20 minutes. It’s been the
hardest time of my life trying to recover from that and the shock of becoming pregnant
again so soon almost destroyed me in the beginning because of how much I was on
edge. My husband and I decided that with this pregnancy we wouldn’t tell anyone at
all this time just because we now know it’s never safe until you’re holding you’re happy,
healthy baby in your arms.
Confessions
Feeling
uneasy
I read a lot of posts online about unresolved mysteries. I didn't really realize how much I
had read until I stopped. Now, after reading so many, I feel depressed, scared and uneasy.
Never want to see
my parents again
I get really jealous of people with
good parents and who have good
relationships with their parents. I
know it's wrong, but it's just hard
having crappy parents that drink
and never gave a damn. My father
isn't poor, yet he wouldn't even
buy me a pair of glasses that I
desperately need. He'll happily go
buy cars and music equipment
though. Or all those times my mum
embarrassed me by being drunk off
her face and abusive, and wouldn't
buy food because she was too busy
buying weed. Now I have moved out
for about a year and I'm so happy. I
never want to see them again.
I TRICKED
MY WIFE AND
NOW IT
BACKFIRED
Since our last son left for college five years ago, I
convinced my wife she would feel better
about herself if she used her degree and
went back to work. My real reason was
that she was always bored and
spends a lot of MY money
shopping online. At first, she
didn't want to go but I practically forced her into
finding a job. It backfired because now I'm
retiring from my career early and want her
to spend time with me but she absolutely
loves her job and would not leave anytime
soon. Especially now that she was promoted to
an Operations Manager position.
