WhitneyTo Be or Not to Be a Mother -Part One
September 20th 2006 15:00
I am woman hear me roar, with too many hormones to ignore…too many pregnancy hormones that was. Which according to my doctor was the theory behind all that drool. I wasn’t happy but at least he’d acknowledged and validated my suffering. He’d admitted it was real and so (and having no other choice) I could accept it. It made sense. But what about when the so-called “experts” tell you that you’re not really experiencing something that you know you’re experiencing. Being a woman and knowing women I’ve found that it happens to women all the time. “It’s in your head” is their diagnosis even if they don’t give it to you straight but in a round about sugar-coated sort of way.
Why am I bringing this up? Because I read an article written by one of the so-called experts. Yup, HE was certified on the proper sheepskin. O.K. doctor tell me, am I going to die? Nope, and according to him I wasn’t going to hyper-salivate either. You see all that liquid that runneth over from my mouth. Every FILLED spit pot after FILLED spit pot that I was flushing down the drain was really nothing more than business as usual for me and my salivary glands. According to this medical marvel I was salivating as per normal – tell that to my horrified family members who may have known me a bit longer than the good doctor who obviously knew it all - it just felt like I was salivating more because, because, because… oh who cares what lame reason he gave? For those of you not used to harsh language please cover your ears because I’m about to use the I-word. As in Idiot. As in he’s an idiot.
Bottom line. He, a MAN who could never get pregnant. A MAN who could never experience his own theory in action or more like his own theory not in action was telling me that what I was going through wasn’t really happening. How could he know? Unless…I wish I may I wish I might I wish that so-called doctor salivate normal like me tonight…
