She has been very supportive and great through the whole rest of the process. Maybe they do this to kind of weed people out? Who knows! I’m sorry you had to endure that!Brihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15827049920771791750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7314724560687850873.post-50119754740260510422009-04-13T20:35:00.000-05:002009-04-13T20:35:00.000-05:00Hi birthmomtalks - I wondered if that wasn't that ...Hi birthmomtalks - I wondered if that wasn't that case. Especially since she has been a SW for 35 years. She was just really frustrating me criticizing the choices (in what I thought was an unprofessional manner) that my husband and I had spent a lot of time discussing.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by! I'm glad for your input :-)Mrs Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04667705054839014784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7314724560687850873.post-44367534954929741782009-04-13T20:02:00.000-05:002009-04-13T20:02:00.000-05:00I just found your blog.

I am a birthmother and I yelled rape, because I was afraid of what my parents would think, because I had sex. I didn't mean for it to be a easy way to get her adopted. Those are just my two cents.birthmothertalkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17690158739622745922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7314724560687850873.post-83645763676191507642009-04-10T22:02:00.000-05:002009-04-10T22:02:00.000-05:00Oh geez...what a day you had!

Just get through this and hopefully you won't have to deal with her again. If I were you, I would see if I could request a different SW for post placement visits.Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11994892007485220299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7314724560687850873.post-42296216631794815382009-04-10T21:32:00.000-05:002009-04-10T21:32:00.000-05:00Holy cow!

LOL Just keep telling yourself that all you have to do is get through this little "labor pain" and then you are one step closer to your baby (which will be a statistical miracle). :) Hang in there!<BR/><BR/>EricaEricahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14367869589191981037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7314724560687850873.post-67433367772437679882009-04-10T18:05:00.000-05:002009-04-10T18:05:00.000-05:00Wow.

I've heard stories about SWs like that, so I'm pretty blown away about hearing someone who's such a dingbat and so rude, too. <BR/><BR/>I hope it gets better!<BR/>AllieAlliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17412339918941762257noreply@blogger.com
