an interesting read, that's for sure

I felt so naive to think that once a baby is made, a baby is brought home... Now I know better.

Even though my son was not born still, this still applies. No doc ever told me that sometimes a perfect baby is not made and sometimes an abnormal baby doesn't come home. I guess I knew that there were birth defects out there - but I never assumed that it would ever happen to us.

Thank you for sharing.

Hi Jenn ~

Me too, I always assumed that I would have a healthy baby. I never in a million years imagined my reality a few months ago.

I am infuriated that knowledge of this nature was at the finger tips of people I looked to for support. I understand the need to be sensitive, and I understand the desire to keep it a “happy” time but I also understand that 29,000 families in the United States each year feel needlessly rejected from the truth. It can happen, and it does happen.

Is a simple brochure to much to ask for? Do they not want to deal with the questions or are they more afraid of the repercussions? I don’t know…. All I know is each time a child passes away another family is devastated.
