Although I do have a step da...I know how you feel. Although I do have a step daughter I don't feel like a mother. I didn't give birth to her, I didn't raise her. I don't have that motherly bond with her. <br /><br />I may get to celebrate Mother's day (this will be the first year we do something) I don't feel like it is MY day. <br /><br />All my life I have wanted to have a baby. I wanted to be pregnant. I wanted to be able to feel the baby move inside me and chart my baby as s/he grew inside me. I feel cheated. It was one of the reason I always said I would never adopt. Its selfish on some level but like you said, we are women and women were created to have babies. It only makes sense that we would long for them. <br /><br />I have a friend who had an awesome pregnancy. No morning sickness, she only put on some weight, etc. And she complained THE WHOLE FREAKING TIME about it. Said it was horrible getting fat, she didn't ever want to do this again blah blah blah. I told her so many times that she should think of women like me who would never experience it and be thankful. She didn't change. But she is a good mom, just not a good pregnant woman. <br /><br />Many hugs to you on mom's day. I am sure there is a horse out there who would tell you happy mother's day if she could speak ;)amybraidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797586185811011310noreply@blogger.com
