It's not my job

It is not my job, and it never was, to provide a baby to an infertile couple. It is not my job, nor is it the job of any other mother or expectant mother. I here some natural mothers saying how they felt that this was "meant to be" so that they could bless some "poor infertile couple." WRONG. I am so sorry these women have been made to feel that because they maybe from a lower financial class, because they are younger, because they aren't wed, that they are somehow less worthy of their child than this ideal, rich, married couple who just can't conceive.

Also, getting pregnant unintentionally was not some "terrible thing that happened to me." I was not some poor victim of some jerk guy. Getting pregnant was no more or less his fault than it was mine. I got pregnant. It's not something happened to me. And it was not terrible. Sure, the timing could have been better, my finances could have been better, but it wasn't a "terrible thing that happened to me" and I will never regret conceiving my daughter.

What I will regret, is allowing myself to be weak and timid. I regret not standing up for myself and believing in myself. I regret letting my fear take hold of me and guide me in to the biggest mistake I've ever made. Now, I am no longer weak and timid. I will tell women that it is not their job to provide babies for infertile couples. I will tell a young, scared, pregnant girl, that she IS worthy of her baby, that she IS her babies mother, and that this pregnancy didn't happen to her so that she can provide for someone else.

That is all.
