My daughter was conceived a year ago today. I joined another support group in addition to the ones I already go to. I'm so exhausted all the time now. It's just like when I was first pregnant. My little girl lost a pound. She's only 8 pounds. I'm worried about her but my AP mom says she's okay developmentally. Newsweek put out a whole issue on babies in the millennium. They said now is the best time to get pregnant, have a baby, or raise an infant.

I'm real depressed and sad about my daughter. I got pictures and letters. A friend of mine emailed me that I should move on. I emailed her back an assertive letter. I'm sleeping a lot like when I first got pregnant. I had a good day. I had a good dream about my little girl. My heart aches to hold her.
