Grace,

I was where your H is 35-36 years ago. What made me stay with WW? We already had two children and I didn't want another man to enter their lives to become any type of father to them. I'm sure that even though the baby might be OM's, your H might hang in there for the sake of your other DD. In the long run, I love that daughter (and grandchildren) as much as my other children.

What saddened me is that WW would not have any more children with me.

Make sure that you don't give your H the impression that you are with him just for the free room and board like my WW did.

I hope all goes well with the dilivery and marriage.

I been away to long, I had the baby! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

She is a beautiful little (6lbs, 6oz at birth but now 5.131lbs) girl. My H even named her which was totally unexpected to me. I want to write more but I wanted everyone to know.

PS I think she looks just like our other daughter, I pulled out some pics and I think they do. Don't want to get my hopes up becuase they both look so much like me, which can still be a blessing.

Hi RAG~ Sorry you had to go through this too! I let my H know everyday how much I appreciate all he has done and is doing. I will spend the rest of my life paying him back. Maybe not always money but anyway I can:)

Love Ya~SG

Congratulations Grace! It must be the JL factor-I went into labor on a day I had a lot of dialogue with him on here. Two girls-you'll love it!!, (most of the time) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

I look forward to hearing how you and your H are doing as soon as you're up to it.

I think you were being somewhat tongue in cheek, but I'm sure you know your H will be more touched by the changes you make in your life, than your financial paybacks, right?

RAG~ It's also possible that her H might hang in there for more than the sake of his DD. He might just hang in there because he loves his W. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Take good care of yourself, and enjoy these special early moments with your tiny little bundle!

Hugs,

Grace,

Congratulations! Hope all is going well for you and yours.


Autumn Day,

Good point, I hope you are right about them. Living with my 1st wife was so hard, by the time the OM's baby arrived, I knew she didn't love me. I was only staying for the children, and she was staying for the free ride. When the children were 18, 16, & 11, she took off again, and I was a single parent.

Living well is the best revenge. I've been happily married to my 2nd wife for 20 years, and my first wife has been through 4 or 5 marriages and is now living alone.

YAY SG!!! Congratulations! I have been thinking of you and figured you must be having the baby.

{{{{Hugs}}} back at cha!

I thought I posted you to let you know....I must've been sleepn still.

Just got a minute, I have both little ones today and ofcourse older one is already awake @ 7:30 and me & little one up three times tonight. Other then lack of sleep we are all doing farely well. I think H is a little apprehensive to become attached to her if she is not his but he does show that he cares so it helps. He'll tend to her if she crys and I can't but other then that he doesn't over due it. It'll take time I know.

This typing one handed thing doesn't work well, so ill write more later.....

Grace,

Congratulations, on your baby girl. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> I am sure the lack of sleep is getting to you right now. I do hope that your H is helping.

As for AD's comments, there is absolutely no validity to the "JL FACTOR". <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> Now maybe if you saw me in person I might "scare" you into labor. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> but otherwise no.

I do hope that things go well with the test, but give your H some time. He will warm up to that little one, especially as she looks like you.

So get as much rest as you can and enjoy. This time passes fast.

God Bless,

JL
