[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am so sorry that you are going through this.

Dealing with what you are going through takes on 2 levels.

First is reliable information. I'm not a healthcare practitioner but I know that websites can be extremely unreliable sources for information. And healthcare practitioners themselves have differences of opinion. I have myself been trying to get accurate information about all sorts of pregnancy-related things and find that there is A LOT of misinformation out there. Try to be as objective as you can while you sift through the various studies, etc.

Second is emotional support. Again, I don't know what the effects are of the previous terminations, but you are now in a position of having a baby that needs extra care.  Being a mom going through stress and anxiety is not going to help your little one. You need to be strong. You need to get over your guilt for his sake. Again, I have no idea as to whether your previous actions had any effect but what I do know is that your actions NOW have an effect. Guilt does not help.  Educate yourself, find a support group, and be strong for your baby. He is here and he needs you.

Use this emotional marker in time to heal and to move forward in a positive direction.  Because self-punishing will do your son no good.

I know you have it in you.[/quote]
