But don't get me started on the caption. She puts the 'me' in 'Maeve'... and the 'I' in 'grief'.
I was hoping she would use this new beginning to start a new beginning, but nope. Here comes Joan, pushing down every other competitor in the Pain Olympics so she can win the golden Grief medal.
She needs to move on. Grief and hardship don't need to be her identity anymore. If her followers want that because they're in a place that she was just before Vera was born, well, they can go back and read those old posts or unfollow and find some new loss mom's.
Joan needs to focus solely on Vera. Because she is alive and needs her mom's full attention.
I thought the photo was very inapropriate, And I think as far as pain Olympics goes she wins the gold medal. I couldn't really get the gist of her post.
I too came upon a post a while back of moms who feel cheated and can't get past the fact their births (live births) didn't go their way and they use the word "grief" to describe the experience. To define "grief" : Deep sorrow, especially caused by someone's death" to me if you come out with a healthy baby using that term to describe your birth experience or feelings about it afterward is the craziest thing.
Whether or not your baby comes out the trap door or sun roof you've given birth. You're a woman no matter what.
Some are just so high on their birth plan they get upset when something has to change. Years go by and they have these beautiful babies but can't let go their births didn't go the way they wanted.
Has anyone seen the Lifetime show "One born every minute"?
