Accidents, surprises, shockers, oops rant.
When I found out 4 years ago that I was pregnant, I was scared, in shock and dealing with a whorl wind of emotions. I never once said my pregnancy was anything but a pleasant surprise, something I didn't know I needed, until I had it. It absolutely drives me bonkers when woman and men classify their child (either born or still in the womb) as an accident. WTF is wrong with you to think that's acceptable to be said? That is an innocent life that never asked for this. Imagine if that child hear they were an accident? It would eat them up inside. Was I ready for my son? No. Did I feel like my world was ending? Yes. Do I still feel that way? Not a chance. How do I feel? Like God knew I needed him way before I did.
It bothers me that there are so many couples that don't yet know the joy of having their own children and want nothing more then to shower a child with love, care and support-yet there are people who claim to have an accident. A drunken 'Oops'.
Sorry. Was out tonight and lost it on a pregnant woman that said her baby was an accident. Told her if she was even a quater of a woman, she'd hate herself for saying that when her 9 months was up.
