Adoption

Posted by: Anonymous
Apologies to the Author for the late submission, I have been having some technical errors with the mail account.

I just so wish that SW who is working with adoption could just try to be more sensitive about the issue regarding adoption. I know they put the baby first and it is right, but some let you feel because you can't have children of your own or struggle to fall pregnant you're a freak and then also you have to pay so many administration costs that you could just buy a baby on the black market (think it would be much cheaper) and then also they want you to pay the hospital bill for the birth mom.

In the end there is so many costs involve that you can't give your LO everything he/she need or everything you so desperately want to give to LO.

Just another woman who try to adopt.

My Darling Husband

Warning: Strong Language

My Darling Husband,

This is a letter to let you know that I am not in fact PMSing.

I am in fact just tired. And here is why.

I am tired of you getting all the perks of a 'stay at home mom', with none of the drudge work. I still have to change shitty nappies, deal with the colic bouts and get up for the night feeds. You do none of it.

You bitch at me at 4 in the morning when the baby needs to be fed, and ask stupid questions like, "what's wrong with him now"? You get sensitive when I get snappy or answer your stupid question with a stupid answer!

I am tired, I am surviving on 5 hours sleep a night. I am stressed because I am running your business for you, earning a quarter of your salary, so that you can play doll during the day. I am unhappy because 'our' son, your boy from a previous marriage, and whom I have mothered for almost 10 years did not even bother to spend more than 30 minutes with me on Mothers Day, despite his dead beat incubator, never being in the picture. I am irritable because I am expected to be perfect. I am angry because you continue to tell people how incredibly tired you are. And mostly, I am about to bash your brains in because you keep telling me that I need to get my hormones checked out.

FUCK YOU, I had a baby a few months ago! What have you done?
