Thank you for your prayers.
What it comes down to is that I emailed Dr. John before any of this stuff started, adn asked him how he likes his posters to deal with things that upset them- he disregarded that. He assumed.
I see that you really like PC, but please stop trying to solve everything- you will drive yourself nutty.
Let's just let it go.
> I don't know who that poster was because in all honesty I didn't read your thread. I'm sorry that I didn't. I don't even really have an answer to why I didn't but I don't read all threads here either. What that poster wrote to you was what she would do. Maybe she wrote it in such a way that lead you to feel guilty. Did you discuss this with her? I didn't witness any of this so I have no idea to what happened really. But please don't judge all posters by that one, just as I would hope that you wouldn't do that here. There are some very wonderful people over there that make you feel extremely welcome. I'm only starting to get to know some of the posters. I have yet to spend a lot of time there and have slightly less than 100 posts so far. I feel for your situation and I'm sorry that you were upset by her reply and I can certainly understand why you would be. I would just advise you to gather all the info that you can and make the decision that makes you feel comfortable for both you and your unborn baby. Only you will know what that is. Just make an informed decision. I've sent my prayers to the man upstairs for you to have a normal, healthy pregnancy and a normal, healthy baby. I hope you will find peace in whatever you decide to do.

I got this poster telling me that if I was her that she wouldn't stay on the drug because if anything happens to the baby, I would have a lifetime of guilt. First impression of the place, the posters there do not have the same class as the posters here. I might be biased, but no one here would say that to the post that I posted (same post as here). Maybe it's just one bad poster... but God! Talk about trying to make someone feel pressured to follow their advice!
