Well, today I went to the doctor for the first time to check on the baby. I was a little nervous because I knew the comments would come. I really liked my doctor, but he proceeded to make the comments or "jokes" that I hear all the time. The one that really got to me was when he said while looking at my chart, "Oh, I was thinking you were still trying for that girl. Well this is just irresponsible. HA HA" Even though he laughed afterward, it still hurt. I came home and Heath could tell something was wrong. I told him what my doctor said and he asked me if I wanted to switch doctors. I told him I think we'd get this wherever we went. He made me feel a lot better. He told me that following God's plan is never easy and he admires me for taking these insults well.
It seems like some "pro-choice" people think they should be able to do what they want to do, but if I choose not to use birth control some people think they can make comments, letting me know they don't approve. I just needed to get this off of my chest. I get so sick of feeling ashamed for having a big family. My kids are such blessings and I should never have to feel ashamed for bringing these beautiful people into the world. God knows this world so desperately needs more selfless, caring people.
