Twice now I have watched the Rugrats movie with my ds (3 years old) and when the cartoon character gives birth to her baby all I can think of is OW and OC. Am I crazy to have a cartoon make me react this way? I almost cry each time I see it.<P>Take care,<P>Why

See my post under your thread "is this the calm before the storm". <P>this cartoon is one of your triggers. How do you get past it? Try some of the suggestions I had in your other post. Also you might remind yourself that you H was not there for the birth as Mr. Pickles was in the birth of Dill Pickles. Take some solace out of knowing her birth expience wasn't as enjoyable as a cartoon character's was! or yours for that matter.<P>Hope some of that helps.<P>Z.

Thanks again. YOu are right. H has had 4 children with OW and 1 with me. THe only time he was present at a birth was with our ds. I will try to remember that next time I get upset. I appreciate your words of wisdom.<P>Take care,<P>Why

Dear why,<P>I must apologize ahead of time bc I did giggle when I read your post. It was a mental picture, but guess what honey, I did the same thing! Cartoons, comercials, and dont let me watch a movie or listen to a country song..lol. I was an emotional basketcase, but dont be too concerned over yourself. This too shall pass...<P>Eventually you will get passed this stage where you cry over everything. At least everything like cartoons and commercials. I mean I am real emotional still, but it is not because of baby triggers....its just me. I can even congratulate pg friends now without even thinking of ow\oc.<P>It will be ok [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img] <P>Love and Prayers<BR>bw
