It is after all, your choice. I state it again. I don't blame her for her choice. I blame her for her choice to show her triplet stomach, for blogging about a being a triplet Mom when she most obviously was not choosing to remain a triplet Mom.Kristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05316017882588698047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4376186910397776411.post-44596977596650206592012-07-13T20:17:19.066-04:002012-07-13T20:17:19.066-04:00No one is SUGGESTING anyone choose Selective Reduc...No one is SUGGESTING anyone choose Selective Reduction except doctors. Whatever the doctor may say, a woman has the RIGHT to choose... I chose selective reduction in 2008. I am thankful I was able to make the choice and have a healthy child to show for it. I have NEVER suggested that anyone choose SR, I only try to support mothers who choose it, on their own terms. Please take a moment to read my blog and get some perspective. I'd really like to see the HOM community stop attacking and continually try to shame the SR community into submission. I am not ashamed of my decision to reduce and love my child as much as any mother loves hers.<br />Keep in mind that this blogger is in the midst of her pregnancy and has a trillion thoughts going through her head...she's struggling with fear of the unknown while waiting for the procedure to be over, all whilst hormonal and being abused by HOM moms. Please encourage other HOM to stop attacking and abusing us. Understand we are ALL faced with different circumstances, and all fully support and respect your decision to continue your pregnancies, can you please try to do the same?<br />www.mother-to-one.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02754001952700723148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4376186910397776411.post-20761120822346632472012-07-09T14:00:18.894-04:002012-07-09T14:00:18.894-04:00It is m blog and I choose how I feel.

It's perfectly in someone's right to do so. I don't appreciate the fact that she still holds herself up as a triplet Mom. As I said in my post, if she had written with courage and heartache I would be defending her. I'm pro-choice remember? <br /><br />Helene I will not delete comments on here. I'm not a blow-sunshine-up-your-ass kinda girl.

I too agree with you, but it is her choice and not your business to complain about her choice. Maybe she is in denial, if you've not spoken to her in person how do you know how she really feels? She's typed it, but it's only words. I spent three months balling because I was scared. I'm glad you enjoy your girls and your life style, it's not fair to judge others.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17468423067225036429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4376186910397776411.post-52968005964359773662012-07-09T12:37:47.080-04:002012-07-09T12:37:47.080-04:00Okay my dear, I too have been writing a post in my...Okay my dear, I too have been writing a post in my head.

That was 9 has ago and our triplets are now 8. Can't imagine selectively reducing.<br /><br />Charles, Hong KongCharles Caldwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574516197025290726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4376186910397776411.post-25187441420899592532012-07-09T10:45:50.079-04:002012-07-09T10:45:50.079-04:00Baby B would have been the one most likely reduced...Baby B would have been the one most likely reduced because of her position.

Baby A would have been the one selectively aborted because of her position in the womb. Interestingly enough, she looks the most like my family. This is not lost on me. Every single day, I am reminded that Anna is, indeed, a blessing and I can't imagine life without her or her sisters.Rachel Newmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04905477132473566121noreply@blogger.com
