hi everyone,
It has been awhile since I have been on. well the new update is no good. I had a miscarriage in May of 08 and since then have sought fertilty treament for endometreosis and was given the go ahead to try again and assured everything was good to go. i was feeling confident fianlley that we would have another child soon. well I got pregnant only to have an ectopic pregnacy which ended in a lot of blood loss and emergency surgery to remove it and my left tube as it had burst all followed by a blodd transfusion. I am struggling with thsi as well as the rest of my family, but my question concerns my 6 year old son. My husband and told him I was preganat gainst our better judgement and that same day I ended up in the Er for the ectopic pregnancy. We decided to tell him thta we had made a mistake and that mommy was just sick and not pregnat as we had done with the prior pregancy. There is no good way to tell a six year ol;d what happened and we thought this way we could ease his pain. I am not sure this was the right decision. What have you guys done to help your children understand and how did they deal with it. My son is having a very difficult time right now especially with me b/c he thinks I lied to him and am aliar. He is having trouble when it is time to go to bed and will yell at me and go off and cry. He will also do this anytime he gets in trouble. He seems to be acting like this mainly with me and others. I just wondered if anyone has any suggestions or advice to share from there own situtaion. Thansk Marie
